Thanks for that mission, despite I'm still missing most of the safe combinations.

Also I collected so much weaponry, that I got the impression it's just the prolog I've played by now. ;D

By the way - how did you get up there ? :

Running and jumping works fine.....

I was trying to replay this awesome mission and I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this but the mission crashes the game when loaded in the 2.15 dev build. This is the error i get:
Error during initialization. Error: file script/tdm_ai_head_tracking_humanoid.script, line 13: Unknown value "m_trackActive"

[Arcturus]

That mission has custom tdm_ai_base.script file. It's possible to move all related code from that file. There will be one line added to tdm_ai_humanoid.def instead. "Displacement" has custom version of that file too, but that doesn't cause a crash in my tests.

I get the same crash when trying to load this mission.

EDIT: If I delete tdm_ai_base.script from the pk4, the mission loads just fine.
Does this break the mission then?

This might be one for @Amadeus as he worked on a bunch of the scripting..

This is probably related to changes that Arcturus is making in 2.15:

If the changes cannot be reconciled with existing missions we can always update the scripts in the mission database.

I believe arcturus already committed the fix for this not too long ago. Displacement works on the latest SVN commit

Ok I don't have a dev environment anymore since switching to linux so will have to wait til @stgatilovto push a new dev update?

[Amadeus]

yeah, that would probably be a good idea. If it doesn't work for that then there's an issue

"Displacement" works, but now my scripts get overwritten, so they don't work when that mission is installed. I don't know of a way to introduce those scripts without causing any conflicts.

Or we can give up on them if they cause more trouble then it's worth.
