Importing squad

Hello,

I have been having to start new games and importing my squad members to replenish the vendors. One issue I am having is every once and a while when I import my squad, their equipment will disapear and occasionaly one of my squad members will vanish and there is no way to recover the missing guy.

Update: Not sure if t his is related. I was carrying an incaped member of my clan. I went to set him down infront of the Brink entrance (I realized this was the same spot i had lost my saved squad members) After setting my guy on the ground he disapeared :( . His portrate thingy is still on my UI however i dont see him. It's like he fell through the ground when i set him down.. This was possible the same fate my members in the above post suffered when i lost them.


Update: Turns out he did fall through the earth, I told him to run to me, and kept trying to right click his portorate. Eventually my camera went to him. He had warped Halfway beytween Brink and clowntown. :shock: Got him back along with about 30 pissed off bandits by teh time he made it to me lol.

The only thing breaking my games

Hello,

I am loving this game so far and I cant wait for future updates. I am having an issue though, that is making the game no fun. The vendors not replenishing/having room to buy more product. I have found myself having to start a new game and import my squad. This wouldn't be such a big deal however when i import my people they are losing the gear I got for them and in some cases my members are seemingly erased from the game. I will save with a 9 member band and load with only 7 or 8.

I was wondering how far off the vendors were from being fully operational on the priority list?

That is an odd sounding bug. I have never had that happen.

As for merchants....its a pain but I think Chris mentioned he would go on a development drive once he finishes up with his current project of pathfinding. So maybe expect merchants to be a little more realistic in the future.....maybe.

I must just ask, do you start where you ended or do you end up on a earlier area?

It picked up right where i logged out. I found that if I avoid saving in the area infront ofthe gates i don't have this issue anymore. Seems the hill is cursed in my game lol. The camera also falls through the ground at times. Looks like just a terrain bug.

If you hold the mouse wheel down and swing the mouse you can push the camera much further. The sun is just a white circle with no detail but i was surprised it was there at all.
I think when you restart a new game by import, it just basically purges all platoon and zone files from your save except namless_0.platoon which is your platoon.
