Quarto said:The problem is easily fixable - all we'd have to do is renumber the missions so as to skip the first ten numbers, and start off with number 10. Unfortunately, if we did that, we would force every single Standoff user to delete their savegames and start over from scratch, which we don't want to do (and we definitely don't want to release two different versions).
Eder said:(But people will nevertheless need to start over if they wish to use the patched version).
Quarto said:the game believes that after "1" comes "10" rather than "2". So basically, the mission order is - 0, 1, 10, 11 ... 19, 2, 20, 22 ... 29, etc.
KillerWave said:That's a windows problem I believe. If you get a lot of files numbered, say, from 1 to 35 and get windows to arrange it in alphabetical order, it will work like this too (if I am not mistaken)
1, 10, 11 ... 19, 2, 20 ... 29, 3, 30 ... 35, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
Well, whatever it is that XP changed, apparently it broke WCP, even if it fixed the problem anywhere else .cff said:Actually I believe this WAS a Windows/DOS problem. DOS and Win9x did what you say. However XP does sort the files right (at least in the Explorer).
Checking - ok, it is ONLY the Explorer. The command shell still does lexicographic ordering.
