It seems all the bugs I noticed in 3.19.3 were fixed in 3.19.4, judging by the changelog. Good job! 

[Rezan]

New bug (I think): After an apartment got raided (and all the people there killed), the location appears as one of my places, but constantly under siege. I can't enter, and there is no one left there (as everyone was killed during the siege).

Well, the maximum possible popularity for the LCS is dependent upon the liberalism of the general populace. Maybe you've got it backwards.

Maybe. I just saw an 'attitude' and a VIEWNUM there. Take a look at this code.

      case LAW_ELECTIONS:
      case LAW_RELIGION:
      default: //eg. -1
      {
         int sum=0;

         for(int v=0;v<VIEWNUM;v++)
         {
            if(v==VIEW_LIBERALCRIMESQUAD)continue;
            if(v==VIEW_LIBERALCRIMESQUADPOS)continue;

            sum+=attitude[v];
         }

         sum/=(VIEWNUM-3);

         return sum;
      }

I'm locking this thread long enough to delete the paintball discussion and then unlock the thread again.

Whatever the reality of the case is, the LCS is not going to be playing paintball, so it seriously doesn't matter and isn't relevant to the topic.

Edit: Done deleting. Let's try to avoid large, hostile fonts in future discussions to come.

I need to comment my code.

      case LAW_ELECTIONS:
      case LAW_RELIGION:
      default: //eg. -1
      {
         int average=0;

         // Total the public opinion on all issues except the crime squad related
         // For each element of public opinion...
         for(int v=0;v<VIEWNUM;v++)
         {
            // Skipping crime squad related...
            if(v==VIEW_LIBERALCRIMESQUAD)continue;
            if(v==VIEW_LIBERALCRIMESQUADPOS)continue;
            // bug: also add "if(v==VIEW_CONSERVATIVECRIMESQUAD)continue;"

            // Count the amount of liberalism on this issue
            average+=attitude[v];
         }

         // Divide the total liberalism by the number of issues we just counted
         // in order to take an average across these issues
         average/=(VIEWNUM-3);

         // Return the average liberalism
         return average;
      }

That's actually a bit more commenting than I would do, but it should help for explaining why those lines are there.

For further reading into the non-intuitive bits in the code here, you might look into for loops and the continue statement.

Thanks Jonathan for commenting the code!

There is a new version of the PDCurses library. Currently Liberal Crime Squad uses 3.3 but 3.4 is available. It has some bugfixes, and the .dll file is pretty much the same size as before. I downloaded the new PDCurses.dll and tried it with Liberal Crime Squad and it is fully compatible. The file to download is pdc34dll.zip and it is here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=30480&package_id=22452 How about upgrading to PDCurses 3.4 in the next version of Liberal Crime Squad?

Found another bug. My founder's Charisma is at level 21 at 500 juice.

[Nobody1225]

Not sure if this is the ideal place, but--

A sleeper Agent just delivered a package after being ordered to steal equipment, and it was a big box full of:

<BUG #-8739, report me!>

[bandaidman]

I have also had a problem with sleepers delivering packages:

My police officer sleeper delivered a package that contained nothing.  The "nothing" items took up spots in my inventory and had no visible name, but i was able to pawn them for $0.

That's not a new bug.

JSF has been trying(OR NOT) to kill that once and for all.

You have one sexy leader...

[Ampersand]

Yeahhhh. He had 21 Charisma and persuasion and disguise, and Law somewhere in the upper teens.

Problem was, of course, I was under the impression stats were capped at 20.

They are, your leader was just THAT sexy.

Not sure if this was said yet, but if you don't choose a codename for your leader, his name comes up as a blank space on the squad screen. However, if you enter a codename and then delete it, his name comes up normally.

I can reproduce this, but not the way you're describing -- to get a blank name, I have to enter the codename " ". Entering no codename when choosing the name for your leader works correctly.
