StellarRat Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 It frequently covers stuff I should be able to witness. Prime example: Two of my guys are having a firefight inside a light scout yet the box covers all the action. I can't see alien hits, reaction fire, nothing. The only way I know anything has happened is that my assault shields are damaged. I'm not exactly sure what the intention is, but it's not right.

GizmoGomez Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Just replace the box with a more different, transparent box. Simple fix for a major problem. Chris said that they might release a fix for that odd behavior. I'm not going to wait for it, though, I'm just going to replace the files with transparent ones.

GizmoGomez Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Oh, is it? I read it, but must not have remembered it. Thanks for the catch, mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GizmoGomez Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 - Camera during AI turn should no longer focus the "hidden movement" screen on the location of the "hidden" movement - Camera should also not jump around so erratically when following shots (more camera changes to come, not done yet!) Is this what you were talking about? This just talks about the camera movement, not the image being in the way of seeing the action. I knew about the camera fixes; the image being in the way isn't a fault of the camera movement system, it's just not vanishing when it should be. That hasn't been fixed yet.

ThunderGr Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 "- Camera during AI turn should no longer focus the "hidden movement" screen on the location of the "hidden" movement" Well, maybe not? I took it that they fixed it along with that. Now that I read it again, it is not so clear... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StellarRat Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 Whatever the case, it's definitely not working well. I am on 19.4 BTW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GizmoGomez Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 "- Camera during AI turn should no longer focus the "hidden movement" screen on the location of the "hidden" movement"Well, maybe not? I took it that they fixed it along with that. Now that I read it again, it is not so clear... I'll explain what that fix means. So, lets say that you have an alien shoot a civilian, and you can't see anything. The camera won't move over and focus on that event. This is significant because you might have revealed some of the map in that area, of even that area itself on previous turns, and thus you're able to see exactly where the event took place based on it's location relative to the revealed parts of the map. Now, the camera won't go over there and look at it, revealing information you shouldn't be getting. Does that make sense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RawCode Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 19.4 box permanent, you can't ever see how your xenonauts reaction fire. but on your own turn camera track projectiles and jump around mindlessly, shoting someone with pistol just pain.

Aaron Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 This is actively being worked on, please be patient; we have been clear that you should expect the experimental build to have unfinished things in it, this is one of those things.

StellarRat Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 OK. I'll wait for the fixes. I just wanted you to know that there were problems and since I didn't really know how it was supposed to work I thought I better post something.
