Just spotted a bug in 7572 build.

Not a bug. You broke your Ja2_Options.ini.

; Enemies (i.e., soldiers), valid values 16 through 64, default is 32
>MAX_NUMBER_ENEMIES_IN_TACTICAL = 40

Remove the leading > sign and you are good.

However this little bugger showed a possible problem that was introduced in revision 6294. The game is not so strict anymore about loading savegames with different "max number of some team" parameters in Ja2_Options.ini. In your case "MAX_NUMBER_ENEMIES_IN_TACTICAL" dropped to the default 20 which was too low.

Having a higher value in the ini than in the savegame is ok but the opposite is not. So I put back the check for this case in the code and also the error messages which had been removed already.

I know I could have just set gGameExternalOptions.ubGameMaximumNumberOfWhatever to the value from the savegame but in this case the player would never get to know about his mistake and unexpected behaviour of the game could be the result.

Fix is in revision 7589 (dev) and 7590 (stable).

Edit 3: Honestly I rather like the idea of externalizing the difficulties so we can add more if we please. For example, if I want to duplicate Novice's settings while having the number of enemies in INSANE, i'd like to make a new difficulty (perhaps call it 'Swarm') instead of editing the base four; that way I have a base to work with!

At the moment you better not do this because the feature is not finished yet by its creator. Only the 4 default difficulty settings are supported!

Damn it. I'm very sorry.

Actually remember that moment of fumbling with shortkeys, when merging changes in my ini and new version's one, but game loaded without complaining about missing value in ini, so I thought I corrected everything...sorry again.

Is restoring stats with surgery still possible? Thank you!!

I don't know what that question does here daggertx, but you should try to heal with mercs having the traits "doctor" or "paramedic", they should be able to heal stat loss, and do surgery (prompts when you assign them to doctor task. Better have others assigned to patient first so surgery is proposed for them).

I am asking if the mechanics are still the same because I am no longer getting ANY prompts. Even if I cheat and start someone with 100 medical skill and doctor trait.

So I tried to restore stats with a regen booster.
I even tried GABBI cheat.

Its not working. Stats stay red and don't go up.

Also this if for stat restore in starting IMPs not mercs, have not tried that yet. But I do know it didnt work on Ira either.

With 7572 build, I still get those surgery prompts. Not always, don't know under what condition. I think sometimes assigning first doctor and then patient help (or other way around? Not sure), but the prompts do appear.

As for restoring specifically lost stats, I guess that surgery won't help you, because first you need restore all HP and only then the stats are healed. At least with normal doctoring and I think surgery would be behaving the same way. And because you will never heal one completely just by surgery...

Edit: I checked and surgery actually heals lost stats even when merc isn't on full HP.

If i enable an option
MERC_WEBSITE_IMMEDIATELY_AVAILABLE = TRUE
MERC_WEBSITE_ALL_MERCS_AVAILABLE = TRUE
hiring any merc and buying equipment is completely free...
There is a cost per day (red color) shown, no money spent after each day...

I don't know if the problem exists if MERC site is set by default and available in game later.

P.S. using latest stable + official update from wiki.

Battle simulation bug[message #337448]

Sat, 01 November 2014 16:15

Messages:78
Registered:August 2012

Hi, I have encountered bug involving army units movement/reinforcements and battle simulation, occurs at least in builds 7572 and 7623.

In this saved game (for 7623 build), there is mobile militia about to be attacked in sector C11. There are 2 enemy groups in D11, each with 12 soldiers.

One of enemy groups starts the battle, the other joins the attack, so militia fights 24, but when militia wins, only 1 of the enemy groups disappear from map. The other remains and may fight again. Immortal bastards.

:headscratch: That's a very special case of one group reinforcing itself...

Group 63 enters the sector and triggers the pre-battle interface. The game calculates 24 possible combatants (two groups with 12 soldiers). First group 63 is assigned to the first 12 slots and then reinforcements are checked. The first hit is again group 63 so we assign those 12 again to the last 12 slots. Ja2 1.13 - Attack of the Clone Warriors... Very Happy

The second group is never considered so they don't even participate in the battle. I have to figure out how to solve this.

I hope I found a proper fix in r7636 (r7637). Groups that already are in the battle sector are not considered valid reinforcements anymore. Reinforcements have to come from different sectors.
Groups that are in the battle sector are handled differently already.

Please test and report any strange side effects.

Display bug in EDB.

Instead of tooltip for counterforce frequency, the EDB shows tooltip for AP to ready. The value gets displayed correctly, it's just the tooltip that states it is showing AP to ready modifier (while the icon is clearly related to counterforce...).

The reason for this display bug is probably that counterforce frequency is not used anymore but Headrock forgot to remove/comment all parts in the code where it still exists. I will clean that up.

If you use that property in your mod you can remove it as it has no effect.

Fixed in r7644 (r7645). I removed all code parts associated with this property. It wasn't used anyway. I also removed the tags from Items.xml in GameDir 2176 (2177).

It seemed like a good practice to me to change subject of a post to reflect the bug. It's easier to trace one problem in thread then, when discussion is interlaced with other topics/bugs, no?

Nighttime artificial light doesn't follow mercs while they move.
It stays on the ground and resets position when the merc stops moving.

I'm using r7623 + AFS v4.49, but i've had this problem with many different builds over the years before.

Here's the kicker, though; i distinctly recall being able to turn this light off (underneath and around Buns, it explicitly says brightness 22 in the link).

"Merc Lights during Movement" in the Options menu is turned off.

Profiles->UserProfile (the mod you're using)->Ja2_Settings.ini-> Set TOPTION_MERC_CASTS_LIGHT (down at the bottom) to FALSE. This should turn off merc lights entirely, although you might need to keep the other option off as well.

Also, I remember seeing someone complain a few weeks ago about having to reset the game start options every time they started a new game. For the record, you can set the defaults for most of those in the Ja2_sp.ini file.

Sometimes militia reloads many (5+) times, as if they spawn with zero-ammo magazines

Potentially related to the mod where you can arm militia; there was a similar bug fixed earlier by Flugente that may still be related.

For reference, i have 'arming militia' disabled for this playthrough

7654.exe with latest gamedir and AIMNAS data:

I can't attach UGLs anymore. Yes, no UGLs, neither OGLs (like the AICW default launchers). The attachment slot does no longer show that it is possible to add an M203 (or any other kind of UGL) to a gun. This seems to affect all kinds of launchers. They can still be fired just fine if used as main gun.

Is this bug also present with vanilla 1.13 gama data?

Hi, another report from guinea pig/tester Smile

In this saved game, there is enemy unit about to enter Cambria F9. It's a group that is supposed to attack Drassen, but it changed its route (as it detected my mercs in Cambria I guess?). If I retreat my mercs, queen will gain control of sector but her squad will just dissapear.

I checked neighboring sector just to be sure - it's not there.

If I send mercs away before enemy enters the sector, everything is fine and enemy is present in the sector as expected.

Also note, that when hovering on "retreat mercs" button on strategic screen, the arrow shows retreat is going to happen to the left sector, but mercs will actually go downwards when retreat is chosen. Is it related to the bug?

Tough the save is for build 7667, I've observed this bug before way, even years back. It's definitely not fresh. But in this game it (or another bug) already cost me fun from Drassen counter attack (the enemy seemed to try to synchronize attack, then moved bit around and vanished) and so I thought it's time to stop being lazy and report it...

Hope it helps.

KK, DeprtessivesBrot found the issue... there seems to be a cap in the amount of possible attachments. And due to the sheer amount of attachments in AIMNAS I broke it... the values above the cap happen to be the launchers. :/
