Girt found an interesting bug in the "Area Contains..." condition. The bug is in the game, I would like to fix it but I need to figure out if any of our shipping levels are dependent on it. Here is the bug:

If you have the condition "Area Contains..." to test for unit X, side 1 in the area, the game will consider the condition satisfied if you have the asked for unit (independent of side) and the asked for side (independent of unit).

Shocked Understatement of the month, IMHO Smile

It sure does explain a lot of weird things happening (like painful hair loss) that were driving me logically crazy (short drive though that is).

Nice find, Girt.

This is fixed for next release. However we already have v1.0a out there containing the broken logic. So... we're going to require authored missions to require v1.0b, which will release at the same time as the editor. I will release v1.0b beta binaries with the next version of M which requires it. The bonus with this is that ARM users will be forced to run the ARM version (v1.0a doesn't enforce this).

Does v. 1.0b of the game also fix the "Ecom virus" - the problem with the game freezing at certain characters (my problem was with ’ in stead of ') in Ecom messages?

I just fixed it, let me know if it is still a problem when with 1.0b (I'll release to this group tomorrow most likely). v1.0b is going to cook for awhile yet before releasing publicly.

So, should I, like, wait until then to start building ? Crying or Very sad Or will 1.0a levels work on 1.0b editor? Smile

Editor should have nothing to do with it. It's the game engine that has the actual logic (and the above mentioned bug), so you should be good to go, TankGirl!
