Most annoying bugs?

Perhaps they're all wearing Zephod Beeblebrox's Joo Janta 200 Super-Chromatic Peril Sensitive Sunglasses?

Stellarrat, there are a nmber of methods to remove that screen. One of them is to go into the scripts folder and remove the words in quotes in the "hiddenmovement" script. These methods are described here on various threads. The other is to remove the hidden movement .png file. In both cases there is a large and a small, I removed the large one and it works.

Med pacs sometimes don't work despite enough action points when one or both units have moved. They work on the next move.

CTD bug when engaging landing ship. Happens every time I try to engage it right after victory result is calculated both with direct control of the engagement and auto resolve. One time auto resolve calculated defeat and CTD did not happen so may be connected wit the calculation of the crashed object

See below save:

Edit: The CTD does not occur if all the escort fighters are destroyed. Took several rounds, took the fighters down first and no CTD.

People realize this is a MOST annoying bug thread, not a here's a bug that hasn't been mentioned thread... right?

Number two most annoying bug: Aliens trying to fire at you through walls etc...specially in their bases. I bet they've killed 25% of their own guys and equipment on the base mission I've been playing. But, they also seem to be able to see through walls, etc... to fire at my troops. That's highly annoying, since my guys don't have x-ray vision.

Soooo frustrating!...I fought over an hour in an alien base. At last I have laser and Wolf armor and for once I did not take any hits (latest beta 19.6). Then I finally get to the last room, and I can't open the darn door! OH nooooooo!...I tried reloading the saved game, but no luck. All the other doors work, but no this one. It is the door from what looks like an operating room, and there are aliens inside shooting.

GRRRRRR!!!

Use C4, a rocket or grenades to blast the door. That will work.

Number 1 bug for me. Hypervelocity weapons show an incorrect to-hit, not accounting for cover or intervening obstacles.

[Xenomorph]

The kings of bugs, the most infuriating and surprisingly still present is aliens seeing through and shooting (or trying to) through walls. Now with bigger and better garrisoned alien bases, and more aliens in UFO, it adds up to a lot of wasted time through alien turns, and reloading through injuries and/or casualties caused by this mess.

[henri5]

Yes I did blow the door down with a rocket. There were 4 aliens in the room which was at the end of a corridor, and I lost a commander and 2 wounded to finish it off. Now just as I finished equipping all my men with lasers, I have just discovered plasma weapons...

[xakthos]

Aliens shooting at my guys through solid walls (bases, sometimes ufos, buildings commonly) would be one of my top ones as well. Secondary is crashing while modifying roles. No pattern just messing with roles and gear in them enough almost always causes a crash in the experimental.

[Ishantil]

Aliens seeing through walls is definitely my #1 bug.

[xcomnaut]

Aliens seeing through walls is game breaking bug. It must be fixed before anything else.

[maackey]

I wouldn't mind if they could just see through the walls (and floors!), but shooting through them is too much. I just lost a crashed landing ship mission because 3 elite Androns shot all my guys in the lower level through the floor, and the ones who survived to get up the teleporters got instantly reactionfired through the walls.

[relic]

Friendly fire bug is the most anoying for me, #2 is the aliens seeing/shooting through walls.

[crusherven]

Aliens *walking* through walls is what annoys me. I don't know if you could call FF a bug, but it feels close sometimes.

[Saskali]

Friendly fire bug is the most anoying for me, #2 is the aliens seeing/shooting through walls.

Friendly fire is as much a part of X-com as aliens it's not a bug by far.

Part of why the Firaxis (?not sure about the name?) fell so much appart of the OG.

Now that we have the stable build out, I am going to unstick this thread - we will do the same thing again when we get close to releasing stable V20 (and surely there will be nothing to post about!).

[Elydo]

Flashbangs doing jack all. Makes storming aliens really annoying. I'm also getting piteous results with shock grenades, are they working as intending currently?

Vision not updating until movement, predominantly with scout car (haven't checked with other vehicles yet). Also: invisible aliens. Both typically during night missions.

I have yet to see a Reaper attack anyone. They're really very friendly in fact. They'll come right up to my guys and then just hang around.

Burst-firing heavy plasmas. (I know, it's not a bug, it's a feature) : P

On one map, can't put a name to it, it had what I took to be a small school. Sent one guy through the lower door and he immediately got stuck on some chairs on the other side. I've seen aliens get stuck on terrain as well (An Andron in a hay bale. I laughed. Then beat him to death with sticks)
