Ah yes, my bad. Invest everything into Sidearms and after that into Light Weapons/Grenade strorage size increase [;

Hmm... I always take the marine an end up as alien breakfast after 15 minutes or so ;-P... I guess I need to try the scout ;-).

I agree with Kolya about the console view; a big part of the charm of the old game for me was the simple ASCII graphics.  With the new set up, it ends up looking like a poor copy of Ultima III.

I immediately downloaded and set up the alternate version of 0.8 and now I'm happy as a clam.

I discovered the fuel drums today and shot one out of curiosity.  LOL.

Overall, though, I love how AliensRL has been resurrected.  It was one of my favorite RL for a long time.

castiglione:
I'm not sure if this really happened and if it did, it's not really a bug but it's sort of odd:

I was firing my sub-machine gun at an alien and it got killed in mid-burst and so my aim point suddenly shifted almost 180 degrees to another alien.  This seems really strange from a "realism" point of view; the burst should go where it was initially aimed, regardless of the outcome (human reactions aren't that fast).

Tavana:
From a purely code point of view, yes that would be a bug. Never heard of that before. o.o
