You are using 3.6 and apperently have some issues with reading. Go to the 3.6 release thread, and grab the updated build.

we should make a filter that looks for the words "engine" "fail*" and "jump out" or "end mission" that brings up a mesage asking if they checked the big bold text refering to the bug in 3.6

Or just make a seperate help forum where the more, err, redundancy resistant can help.

A big 'very well known bugs and solutions' thread would be far more useful.

What if you ever updated Mantis?

We do update Mantis. Slowly. We're low on manpower and time at the moment.

You still haven't even commented the bug I reported.

I haven't commented a lot of bugs.  Be patient.  I'm working on many things at the moment.

I'd rather you fixed bugs than commented them anyway :D That has a more concrete result after all :)

Just give us some signs that you actually read the bug report.

TopAce: Does it matter? If it's there, someone spotted it. If I come by with the normal enquiry of computer specs, you know I was bored. If someone else posts in it saying that they have the problem too, you know someone else was bored. Really, posts don't matter, only solutions do.

This thread has long outlived its usefulness.
