This is a known bug in 1.2 and will be fixed in 1.3. It will require a new campaign to go away completely though - you may still get extra DLC mission points of interest if you upgrade a 1.2 campaign.

A save would be great, thanks.

I have a fix for this, it'll be in 1.3.

This one is kind of fascinating. The no action points on restart when you are on a mission where you spawn on the evac zone just exposed the pre-existing bug, it isn't the bug itself. It's actually all the restart missions on maps where you don't start on an evac zone that are bugged, but most of th...

It's a little weird that they activated at all while you were in concealment, usually they are not allowed to do that, and this is why the game freaks out so much. The rocketeer pod is trying to scamper, but it's not letting them scamper while you're still concealed. I discovered the reason for that...

Unfortunately the alien on fire bug is harder to fix, because we don't have much direct control over the exact tiles where pods are spawned, and it doesn't seem to check to make sure those tiles aren't on fire before choosing them (or the fires aren't spawned until after the units are already placed...

I can repro this problem and I know the problem. Working on a solution for 1.3. This might just involve moving the evac zone slightly on those missions where you start on top of it, because we don't have a lot of mod control over the behavior of the restart mission command.

Thanks for the report. If you can post or PM me a link to your save I can take a look.

Thanks to the save from caseywills I've found the bug and checked in a fix. It'll be in 1.3. Basically the problem was the new activity-based DEs failed to disable the clock inside the vanilla DE. The DEs roll between a min/max duration to determine how long they last, and due to the bug two separat...

Stroggus: Are you using any pistol-themed mods? Nah, couple cosmetic ones and standard QOL mods (evac all. flank preview, perfect i, show health and stop waisting my time) I don't believe it's anything intrinsic to Overwatch All that causes this, it's more of a side-effect of how it's implemented. ...

So, I've tracked down the problem and it seems reproducible only if you have Overwatch All enabled. I'm not sure what in particular in that mod causes the bug, or what weird interaction between it and LW2 does. Overwatch All is quite old (last updated Feb 2016) and basically the same as my Evac All ...

Yes, I tested it. The problem is in the way it compares these values, which is by recording their *current* hp at mission start vs mission end, which doesn't account for the fact they could have started the mission with less than maximum HP. It's not that *you* healed them during the mission, it's t...

I came up with a slightly better fix for this that shouldn't interfere with the after action report. Basically I just record the current HP of the unit on mission start, and if the unit ends the mission with more HP than that, it reduces it back down to the value they started with. That is, you can'...

Yup that's just broken. I'll put in a fix. Thanks!

Ok, so I have debugged this a fair bit and I think it's a vanilla bug that was mostly benign, but is no longer so with LW2. Basically what's happening is a bad interaction with the HP granted from armor. The way it works is the game records the lowest and highest HP you had during a mission. After t...

Usually this occurs when you infiltrate a mission that is detected with 0 hours remaining and is already fixed for 1.3. If you don't think it's the same scenario you can try giving us a link to your saved game (on something like gdrive or dropbox or whatever).

OnMission isn't supposed to be used for that, it should be eStatus_Healing for wounded soldiers. In the psi op save I have that I can actually debug, I can see the wounded psiop has status Active, which is incorrect, it should've been reset to healing. I think I can see the cause of that bug, but it...

Yeah, but there is also another bug here specific to psi ops I think, which is why Kraken has different behavior, and why Bilf had a wounded psi op autofilling into a squad. Unfortunately I can't load your saves into the debugger: one or more of the mods you have installed that I don't causes it to ...

Thanks for the report. One of our testers also just found an issue with squad autofill filling wounded soldiers too, which may also be related. It sounds like something is off with the post-mission status setting. I'll take a look at your saves and see what I can see.

The resistance mec was still causing a problem even with my bugfix. With the save I've fixed this issue now too and the missions should end properly when you full-override a mec on a mission with a resistance mec present.

It doesn't happen for me, so either I fixed it (accidentally, with the squad disappearing fix) or it isn't always reproducible. If you can send me your save I'd really appreciate it, cause that'd settle it.

Sorry for the super long delay, but I'm finally able to look into this bug and try to solve it. If you still have the saved game, I'd love to take a look at it.

If you have a save that repros this problem, please send me a link to it. I don't believe I fixed this with the fix I made in 1.3 to solve the disappearing squad bug (which was also related to missions expiring) but I can't repro the DE bug.

I believe I already have a fix for the bug(s) listed here. But if you want to provide a save I can double-check that it is fixed for these cases too. The easiest way to get the save to us is to drop it on some filesharing or cloud drive service (dropbox, gdrive, etc.) and just paste or PM me a link....

If you can load the earlier game and have the adviser disappear again, then yes that'd be useful. You can force a retaliation mission with the console: \LWForceMission Terror_LW WorldRegion_EastNA (region is an example, replace it with the appropriate one for your region). If it doesn't repro when d...
