Enjoying playing Star Sentinel Tactics but the game keeps hanging again and again for no apparent reason on a particlar scenario. i.e. the Tunnels in Mission 15. Anyone any idea why this should be?

I'm having the same issue in that level.  It started after the aliens first become visible.  It's slightly random -- I've had it occur on different turns if I retry from my "beginning of mission" save.  For me, the crash always happens during the opponent's turn -- never during my own.  I've been trying to save every time I get through another turn successfully, but it's painful.

There was a bug in the AI for a creature which only appears in Mission 15, which can cause the symptoms you're experiencing. It's fixed in the 1.01 patch. I tried quite hard to come up with a workaround for the bug in the meantime, but there really isn't any way of fixing it until the patch is released, I'm afraid.

I just got hit with this as well. I sure hope Matrix puts out the patch quickly.

Thank you for the update. Good to know you covered this one in the patch. I'll now return to lurker mode.
