Hi,
It seems after playing for a while randomly I will be unable to hit any enemy with one character, sometimes removing the scope helps or switching weapons. Does this happen to others as well or is it just some wierd bug I get?

I think I am having the same or similar issue. I downloaded and installed Tai's file "SCI_113Beta_r4057_20110116.7z" from the thread http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/board/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=261665#Post261665
I believe it's the mod "NTCH". IMO it pretty much broke scopes and by extension sort of the game itself. I understand what the attempted change was meant to do, but it just doesn't work and I can't find a way to disable it's effects.
If I have a merc with a 7x scope on an assault rifle, they have absolutely zero accuracy at less than 8-10 tiles. You can stand 1 step away from an enemy and be completely unable to hit them. I know you get tunnel vision when using scopes, but that's just way too bad of a penalty. You wouldn't need to look through the scope at an enemy so near. I also suspect the AI has no comprehension of this change and doesn't know how to deal with it, making some fights ludicrously simple because they can't defend themselves.
Can anyone advise me on how to disable these effects? When I look at the field for "USE NCTH" It says "FALSE" and the description is "MISSING: PROPERTY DESCRIPTION". Yet from what read I really suspect that mod is the cause.

BoogieManAny way I can fix this myself with the ini editor or something similar? If you mean fix the battle scope, open XML editor, Items->By Class->Misc->Right Click on Battle Scope->View Details and fix it.
Edit:ChrisL has a bit more experience than me, and I did read that the XML editor misses some tags. Follow his advise.

For me it seems to be the lasers causing the problems. I have to take my laser off to be able to hit someone close range. If it's someone who has a machine pistol in his/her holster i just get the mp out.

Well i'm wondering since someone else said they took the scope off- if maybe the combination of the two attachments is what is causing the problems.

@Swampgator: I don't see any problems with the system where scopes + lasers are concerned. Here's an amalgum of screen shots:
[quote=ChrisL]
It doesn't happen with sniper scopes/laser or small scope/laser. It happens with battle scope/laser and pso3/laser. Yesterday I tried taking off the scope and that worked too. I'm not sure what version you are running, but your cursor doesn't look like mine in your screenies. I'm using Tai's SCI- 4075 i think it is.
