SeanD,

I hate to start a new thread but want to make sure you saw this ...

Have you had anyone send you saved games regarding the AutoLoot not "looting" when the enemy attacks your sector?

I have a theory about this .... You see, the Autoloot is working fine it's just that the game exits the battle without being aware of any loot to be taken.

For instance ...

1) if you exit the battlefield normally using the red icon, it will ask for you to approve autoloot, you say yes, then it exits out to the map ... no loot.
2) if you press ESC and exit the battlefield then it will autosave the battle but when you reload that save it will have dead soldiers but no loot on them (manual loot)... wheareas before, they had loot.

In other words, IMO, it appears to be a problem when the battle is generated where the game doesn't commit any loot to the battle despite the dead soldiers having loot (ie, you can manually loot them). This is different from when a sector already has soldiers in them and you attack ... the game seems to load "autoloot" for them so you can have loot at the end.

Does this make sense? I can babble-on sometimes.

Thanks,
Rob

I have not ignored or forgotten this and don't apologize, I appreciate your diligence.

Thanks for the additional info, I'll add it to the information already available on this bug to see if it helps the hunt to solve this problem.

The short answer to your question is "it's on the list" which means "we're working on it" and as soon as we have an ETA on the next update we will "let you know."

"Sound good?"
