little_me Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 I have problems when entering an UFO. Can not go to some places. Some pasages seems to be to narrow or there is somthing in the way. I have checked doors, moving my troops "out of the way", throwing handgranades... I have installd patch 1.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaughter Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 We believe thus is a bug in the 1.3 version of the game. Not sure what you can do about it... Welcome to the boards by the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kret Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 I have installd patch 1.3 Here's your problem . Some bugs were introduced in the game with this patch while fixing others. This is one of them: narrow diagonal corridors are usually "unpassable". No patch/fix currently exists, and workarounds aren't really available. Best option is to start placing units so they cover possible areas where the rats might appear (explosive weapons help a bit here). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARD_Sarge Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 yea, I am having the same trouble too (I only went for the ships I had to, I let the other troops do all the ship battles, a shame, as they are fun) and to the looks of it, the final mission is not going to be completed (if I can read the map right, the 2 ways onto the ramp are narrow) but I havn't cleaned the rest of the ship out yet, so....

Aralez Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 I completed the final mission recently, no problem. BUT you could not go through two passages to the north, had to find an alternate route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARD_Sarge Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 alternate route. ? from the map, there looks to be only one way in, I have gone over the whole ship ? I can always look again HARD_Sarge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aralez Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 Iirc, i had to go all the way to the left and then north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couscous Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 I've just bought this game & am having the same problem. I've installed patches 1.2 & 1.3. It's not just when in UFOs either, I've had a few missions in the mountains where I haven't been able to reach the target squares for UFO entry or downed pilots . Any ideas on this? Thanks Couscous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabreur Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 pilotfix migt work for thease bugs too, dunno about it, i havent encountered any myself, lets see when i reinstall the game after my finals.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARD_Sarge Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 guess I still need more hints went left and north and can't find any way out of the rooms up there (no path way is there if there is a secret door ?) I also went south and blew up all the cute little spiders, that didn't help either ???????? HARD_Sarge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strahd Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 HARD_Sarge I had the same problem for a while. If I understood you correctly you are next to the only two entrances to the final room. Yust open the allmost invisible door (both sides). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kret Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 @Couscous v1.3 is supposed to fix pilot rescue problems where "rocky" areas made the area unrecheable, those particular problems only occured before 1.3 and I've been on enough rescue missions and UFO downed to actually notice that the fix works, but had the misfortune of introducing the "area inside a building" bug for the pilot rescue missions. If you have applied patch 1.3 then that's the only problem you should be having to deal with in pilot rescue missions. @Chen Nope, pilotfix is based on the fact that the pilot is NEVER (so far) over an illegal square and therefor "moves" the rescue area to that point. This is not the problem we faced in prior version that Couscous has mentioned here about @Others and the main topic Only key rooms stay the same in scripted missions, other rooms will change from game to game. So while some will have no problems moving about in the final mission, others will have trouble with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couscous Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 Thanks for your reply, Kret. I have both 1.2 & 1.3 patches installed and experience the "can't get there" problem on rocky ground as you describe it. If 1.3 has fixed this for other folks then I guess it might be worth me reinstalling on the off-chance it didn't patch properly first time around.

Kret Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 That might be advisable, but only if you get it often, there's always the "really odd chance" of getting a mission where the landscape is far too complicated to walk through it. I was once in a scout mission where the horrendous ammount of flora and BIG rocks made it almost impossible to move. Think that close to 50% of the map was cut off 'cause of this. That mission was slightly harder due to the presence of sniper-morelmen. Well, wasn't gonna loose a "simple" scout mission and actually managed to win it.

HARD_Sarge Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Hi Strahd well no luck so far, went back in to that save and I can find a open door icon on either side of the small doors, it does not open anything lets see, to start with there were two small open doorways when I first went into the area, after the battle, if I place the mouse at the base of those two doorways, I get the open icon, but click on it and get, no way to get there message HARD_Sarge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
