Yeah, it's sort of frustrating. The thing underwent a fairly heavy beta-test. But at least (
http://www.bogadocious.com/myfms/BB2_V2a.zip) V2a answers the critical issues. I'll be in Washington State next week. When I return I'll address the housecleaning that needs to be done to the campaign.
FYI, I won't release an FM to the public until my beta-testers tell me it's good to go. And even with the folks of Yandros' caliber checking it over, things will still fall through the cracks.

Well v2a still slows down a lot in the train yard areas for me, but it was playable. Completed mission 3. I didn't search for all the toy trains though. I only got 9. Nice mission, but I seem to have done most everything in reverse. Once I got into somewhere, I found an easier way in :joke:
There were some funny things. In the bank vault area
the bots are easy to "trap" under the elevator and crush. I exploded the 2 of them that way. They tended not to want to fire at me at all, so I made them chase me into the pit of the elevator (sent to the 2nd or 3rd floor, then ran around and opened the safe. Once done with that, I lowered the elevator and crushed the last bot. Question. With these new style bots, can they be disabled with water arrows? I never found any water arrows so I could not try. They don't have a fire door, but I figured that is just cosmetic.
Thanks again Ricebug for this FM. Glad to see a new one, since I was really Jonesing for new stuff. Some good ideas in these missions.

Uh, how do you actually end the mission? I've poked about in lots of trains and it's not finished.
Incidentally, that "Huntley & Palmers" texture? They're now probably best known for (

There's a clue written on a readable, on the top floor if I recall correctly.

Yeah Yandros is right. I was stuck for a bit there too. I started looking for the bankers house..lol Then I remembered that note about Benny that I found up there and said oh crap. I couldn't believe I didn't get it.

Fun little mission. I didn't have too much trouble with it. Is there something more to the door bell button other than the "Dave's not here" message? I finished with one secret short.

Nope. There are 3 secrets total. The final fix (after my vacation in the Olympic mountains) will correct it.
