Here is a video of the bug. I’ve tried restarting the game and computer multiple times. I even restarted the mission and he still bugs out. Basically, whenever I go to move him, the pathing is clearly bugged in some way, and when I click to move him anywhere, the gif belows happens. It is the Ravi Chaudri mission > Please advise on what I can do to fix this? The only key that is responsive on the keyboard is F12 submit bug, but if I try to submit it, it gets stuck uploading. It sits still as in the gif for 5-10 mins doing nothing. Bought the game standalone from Epic store ---

I just ran into issues with the “Launch Code” mission (i.e. rescue Ravi Chaudri). Apparently if one loads a saved game that was saved after the start of the mission, one is unable to move Ravi (sometime blue outline - others orange) - all movement choices are “X”. However, one does get a “Move” button. If one clicks on Move, the game locks up. I also had save files (after evac’ing Ravi, but not my unit) that would lock up with an infinite “Loading” screen. I did F12 bug report this earlier today. ---

> [@Omneus](#): > > the pathing is clearly bugged I just this minute had exactly the same issue and had to go back quite a way from an old save to continue. it just locks the entire system and I have to force quite it if I try to move the hostage out. The sad part was I actually finished the mission made a huge mistake in the geoscape reloaded the quick save (this mission) and it just crashes, even though I had just completed it a few minutes ago? SO… I had to reload an even older save and now the AI has a hard on for my base and will not stop spam attacking the base… the entire thing may need to be restarted and it all started with this bug here… ---

Thank you, that did appear to be the issue, if I didn’t reload I was able to finish it. ---

Thanks for reporting. It will be part of a hotfix planned for today: Fixed a hang caused by loading a Tactical save and attempting to move civilians
