Dismissed leader / Game freezes after mission completion
Posted: Tue Feb 23, 2016 8:18 am
Hello, LWS!
I foolishly choose a pretty standard sniper build Sharpshooter as my first Leader and immediately regretted it given the range of the Leader's powers and the natural trailing distance a sniper operates compared to the rest of the team.
I decided it best to dismiss the soldier in question and train up my Specialist as a leader instead.
On the very next mission (happens to be the grounded UFO), at mission completion the game hangs. The 'end of mission' music chops at first but the screen goes dark other than the cursor, then the music drops, and then Windows gives the 'game is not responding' dialogue. I never got to the Skyranger cabin at all. It hangs immediately after hitting the continue button from the end of mission scoreboard.
I noticed this other bug which seemed similar:

And thought I'd post my situation here. I have beaten the game before (no mods) and have never had stability/crash problems other than the final mission in which I had something like 18 enemies on the screen at once and some corpses wouldn't stop ragdolling.
I believe from what I've read that the Leader mod may be to blame here. Any ideas on saving my game thusfar?
Thanks,
A
