Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
Hello, first of all, very good job on your campaign, i have great pleasure to play it.


Spoiler alert now ;)


Now the problem, this mission in space suit, objective : "get to a ship" , very well, rushing to the titan, as espected, he leave in  front of me, and i finally dock on this freighter, and the, debriefing, i click on accept and it say the mission is failure and i can't accept with the triple choice, quit, return to main menu or restart mission ....

do i miss something ? is there a fighter somewhere where i can go in ? i'm a bit lost to be honest.

Re: Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
I had the same problem yesterday. After several tries (including cheats) I resigned, got myself killed five times and advanced to the next mission.

Same here. Prolly a bug. Post a debug in the release thread

Are you guys using 1.0.0 version of Aftermath or the recent update?
How do you kill a hydra?

Re: Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
I presume this problem is because of some change made after 1.0.0 was released. I think rolling back to 1.0.0 would fix the issue but I recall something about Herkie changing the campaign file name... Which would mean that FSO will treat 1.0.0 and 1.1.0 as separate campaigns and you'd need to start the older version from scratch (but your progress in the new version will be saved, so it's fine).

Question: could you install 1.0.0 and verify that you need to start the campaign over?

Re: Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
The problem seems to be in the campaign file, the entry for the mission is different to the normal ones:

Code: [Select]
$Mission: Act 3-d.fs2
+Flags: 0
+Main Hall: 0
+Formula: ( cond
   ( ( true ) ( next-mission "Act 3-d.fs2" ) )
)

+Mission Loop:
+Formula: ( cond
   (
      ( is-previous-event-true
         "Act 3-d.fs2"
         "Continue"
      )
      ( next-mission "Act 3-e.fs2" )
   )
)

Found another case: the mission pursuing the Anagora (not the actual disable mission) was a failure when it was actually accomplished. This is not just 1 mission I am afraid

 
Re: Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
Name of the mission or the mission file (or just the previous mission in techroom as the incomplete won't show up there yet)?

"somewhere in the rocks" looking in the techroom

 
Re: Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
Yep same issue
Code: [Select]
$Mission: Act 6-e.fs2
+Flags: 0
+Main Hall: 0
+Formula: ( cond
   ( ( true ) ( next-mission "Act 6-e.fs2" ) )
)

+Mission Loop:
+Formula: ( cond
   (
      ( is-previous-event-true
         "Act 6-e.fs2"
         "Continue"
      )
      ( next-mission "Act 6-f.fs2" )
   )

i have take a look at Knossos campaign option, no other versions than 1.1.0 are avaible, so, no possibility to downgrade

Click on the "details" button of the mod then click on the top left drop-down tab. 1.0.0 should be there. It is for my knossos

Re: Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
mine give me only 1.1.0 version, i guess i'll have to wait for the dev to correct this :)

 
Re: Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
Does anyone have any workarounds for this?  Was really enjoying the campaign and now I am stuck.  No option for 1.0.0 here in Knossos here either.

 
Re: Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
AFAIK not. You can post where you are, possibly you get some help. Alternatively you can just cheat.

Re: Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
1.0.0 should be available if you enter the mod details page in the Explore tab and unfold the selection list from the top left.

Re: Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
Unfortunately there is not an option for 1.0.0

Re: Am i stupid ? (spoiler)
It is a bug. A horrible one. I am very sorry for that. It's fixed now. The debrief will have a sad failure music, it's OK. It is intended.

What happen was the Branch SEXP and the Repeat Link SEXP in the mission loop was inverted or in reverse order. My mistake when I was editing things.

For anyone who can edit a campaign file, you can fix this. Just reverse the order. The Branch To SEXP above and place the Repeat Link SEXP below
