I just recently started up a new JA2 game after many years. I have every city except Meduna.
My problem deals with a strange bug involving the helicopter and robot.
I had 5 mercs and the robot in the helicopter at Drassen (just parked) and I was screwing around with the robot on the map screen. On the map screen when you click on the robot there was some option that said "uniloc" or something like that. I selected this and then the robot just dissapeared. I then took all 5 of my mercs out of the helicopter, but it was still saying that there was 1 person in the helicopter (presumably the robot).
So now I can't select the robot and when I try to fly the helicopter, the game crashes to desktop on arrival to destination. I'm assuming this is because the robot is stuck in the helicopter
Anyone ever seen this?? What the heck is uniloc? and unfortunately I dont have a previous save game I can load up before this debacle! Can I edit the robot out of the helicopter or something with an editor??
Please help!!! I really dont want to have to travel by foot or car from now on!!Thanks!

Looks like you either have to travel on land or start a new game. Basically you sent the robot packing from your company. Being a robot, he was abandoned because robot's can't hit up the airport to go home without someone controlling with a reciever. So he is just sitting his robot ass in the helicopter. Even if you do succeed to get him out....you will still lose his accompany.
