Re: Important Notes on Build 31 (report bugs and ask here)
The restrictiveness on resolution seems to have been increased to an excessive degree. I have a 1600x1200 monitor but the game refuses to run in NxWindowed = 2 while the resolution is set to 800x600.
Further, the game crashes every time it's closed. Dxdiag attached.

Re: Important Notes on Build 31 (report bugs and ask here)
NikolaiLev, did this configuration work before? I mean you can't actually fit a 1600x1200 window into 1600x1200 screen because of headers, boarders etc. CC will most probably fail to create such window.

I had the same problem, and using the 8 bit MO Layer EXE solved the slowdown issue for me.

Re: Important Notes on Build 31 (yes, it's here)
I ran fairly similar scenes for the original EXE, 32 bit MO layer EXE, 8 bit MO layer EXE, and then I ran the original EXE a second time. I found that with both the 8 and 32 bit MO layer EXEs, my frame rates were a lot high all across the board and extremely demanding explosions only took a quarter of the time to complete compared to the original EXE. For example: While running the 32 bit layer EXE, 38k particles were being processed and my FPS was 5 and my MSPF was 208. In the original EXE, only 12k particles were being processed and my FPS was 7 and my MSPF was 138. Here are links to RARs with the screenshots inside for the 4 sets of screenshots I took.

elmfuzzy, Magmacow358, thank you very much. Until the steam version is patched you may use 32-bit MO layer version.

Re: Important Notes on Build 31 (report bugs and ask here)
The "Scene Editor"-tab is kinda bugged. I can only select it when the cursor is exactly above the edge of the tab.

I don't see why the borders can't simply exist offscreen as most other games/applications can manage this. Ideally I'd like a borderless window at 800x600 scaled to 2x to fill a 1600x1200 display but to my knowledge CC has no support for borderless windowing (though a third party program I use can remove the borders from CC). As for whether that configuration worked before, I'm not sure. The last time I played CC was when I still had a 1920x1080 display.

Re: Important Notes on Build 31 (report bugs and ask here)
weegee, do you know when (or if) those of us who bought the game direct from Data Realms' website will be able to get Build 31? The Dev Log mentioned the Humble Bundle purchase would be up soon but made no mention of the site licenses. When I try to download it from here: http://licensing.datarealms.com/licensing/menu I still get Build 30.

Re: Important Notes on Build 31 (report bugs and ask here)
I asked him back when it first came out. It'll be 'soon' - Data handles that side of things I think.

Re: Important Notes on Build 31 (report bugs and ask here)
I have a bug where the keyboard stops responding. I am running in fullscreen with an gamepad. At some point (could be part way through a map, Idk) the game stops responding to any keyboard input until I press any button on the numpad (including numlock). I am using a PS/2 keyboard. I experienced this in B30 and maybe earlier. I can't reliably reproduce it.
EDIT: It seems to be caused by hitting the ALT key.

Re: Important Notes on Build 31 (report bugs and ask here)
Fullscreen 1920x1080 and under Game Editors selecting Scene Editor is buggy, directly hovering over the button does not highlight it or allow it to be pressed, can only select it if on the very bottom left of the button or on some edges. I used the Scene Editor quite often in B30 and never remember this happening.

Re: Important Notes on Build 31 (report bugs and ask here)
So how exactly do I access the bunker randomization stuff? I've been unsuccessfully trying for over half an hour. There are the assemblies things, yes, but they're inaccessible in the construction mode, in area editor, they appear to do nothing whatsoever, in assembly mode all you can do is put stuff inside them, and the assemblies, while placeable are not random whatsoever. They're essentially presets and nothing more. It doesn't seem as if there are any options related to creating or playing random maps either.
I'm using the Steam version on Windows, with no mods.

Hey don't worry I was just as lost as you were until I remembered watching Weegee do just that - I traced it back to this page on the Teaser thread: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=45795&start=15The video of him demonstrating it can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVwWJy29oaQ

Re: Important Notes on Build 31 (report bugs and ask here)
That was rather.... deeply buried. Well, I guess partially randomized bunkers are fun. To tell the truth I was hoping for something even more random than that, but oh well. A bit of a shame that there is no random terrain, though. Anyway, thanks. EDIT: Okay, I've tested it, let's see. First off, as a fan of duel arena-style gameplay, I'd quite appreciate the ability to place neutral(without unit deploys spawning, perhaps without doors) schemes. Second off, some of the bits are quite... confusing. There's by far not enough smaller pieces, and not enough vertical-ish ones, and I think none of both, save for a straight-down tunnel. Third off, I'm pretty sure that different pieces of the same type spawn different amounts of units, but either way, a unit count tally would be most welcome. I'm not really sure why I'm counting, but anyway, fourth off, probably a bug, but the schemes don't get spawned when you test the scene. Well, all in all, good job data, it's a pretty cool feature EDIT 2: On another note, a good while ago I've made some high-ish quality bunker modules, but never really done anything with them. If you like them, could I contribute them to the main game? What about maps? You could use having some more.

Re: Important Notes on Build 31 (report bugs and ask here)
Why not just publish them in the mod releases & scene releases section? I'm pretty sure the vanilla metagame can pull from enabled custom scenes if they're set up correctly, and obviously players can select them themselves if they want.
