Ufo Enemy Unknown/defense Error

[Petter1979]

Im having trouble with the game, the game runs fine in winXP with sound.

I have downloaded the game from this site, but my problem ingame is:

When the aliens makes a retaliation attack on one of my bases there is errors in the base, the diffrent base structures are not connected. Where there usual is a doorway between the structures, there is in my case solid walls, so i am not able to get to the hangars / access lift.
:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :eeeeeh:


Anyone else have these problems?

I never heard of such a strange bug!

Could you provide us with the savegame? I'd like to see that!

I hope you have another savegame from earlier in your game, because the way I see it you won't be able to anything. Unless you have access to Alien tech already and can dig your way between each structures...

Atm i have no host to upload the zipped savegame, could i email it to you maybe?

Eagle:

I have tried blasted my way through in another base attack, with the blaster launcher, but no the walls are solid :sniper: :rifle:

ohh and i lost that base, damn annoying to lose my production base, together with 90 engineers :(

Your description was pretty good... I have no idea what caused this but you have no other choice than to load a previous game or to lose the base. What the attacked base under construction?

BTW, I could not stop myself and look at your game... Why are all your soldiers in the base equiped with Laser Pistols? That's about the most inneficient weapon in the whole game...

If you want to use pistols at least use Plasma Pistols... They have double the accuracy of a Laser Pistol.

Well the attacked base was relativly new

placed access lift.
had just constructed 2 hangars, 1 living quater, 1 workshop, 2 general stores, and under construction was large radar, hyper wave decoder, mind shield.
Same layout like my Artic base


had only bought soldiers like 15 days ago, and had transferred around 10 laser pistols to the base until i got hold of more heavy plasma weapons, i accidentally made quite a few laser pistols heh

In my main base Africa i wanted some fun, had shot down a small ufo, and for fun i equipped my soldiers with laser pistols, just to have a fun tough mission.

after that mission the attack against my new base came.
I do normally use heavy plasma weapons

My security wasent that good at that base cause i didnt expected a attack so soon, since the base only have been operational for like 2 months

Eagle:

Are your bases corrupt like this if you have been attacked by aliens?



hmm maybe the error is caused because of my base layout?
Its one of the first times i plan my base layout like my Artic Base.

I think it's a random bug. Like I said I never encountered it.

The best way to describe it would be: sh!t happens. :D

Moved to appropriate part of the forum.

Hmm ill try a reinstall of the game, but it shouldent do anything since i havent altered the installation in any way.

Guess ill start a new game too

You were pretty close to completing your game, you might consider playing it thru to the end. :)

Eagle:

Hehe the game was just starting to get fun, had just made psi training facilities, and was eager to start being a puppetmaster against those poor aliens :sneaky: :ph34r: LOL
