Possible AI bug.
I'm having the issue where the AI stops working after a couple of missions. The first few missions go fine, but every time I've gotten to the first council mission, the AI just completely stops. After the first scamper, all enemy units on the map will no longer move or take any action, and there's an extremely long pause on every enemy turn despite nothing happening.

The invisible enemy that others have mentioned seems to always be the sectoid soldier for me. In the space showing the enemy "heads" at the bottom, instead of the alien icon it shows a multi-colored square with the letters "img" on it. Scrolling over it with the mouse will pan the camera to the invisible enemy's location, but often times (not always) trying to target it with direct fire causes a crash.

I've been starting new campaigns to see if this behavior is consistent and for something like 3 or 4 campaigns in a row now it has done this every time. I'll keep playing after that mission to see if it persists and if it only occurs with the presence of sectoid soldiers or not.

Also, this only started a couple of days ago for me, at the same time the DLC was released, so I'm fairly certain the DLC screwed something up XD. For the record I know the bug probably isn't this mods fault as I have a plethora of others active. I just hope that whatever info I can provide can contribute towards a solution.

Whatever is happening here, is clearly not happening for everyone either.
I can't reproduce this bug at all.

Very strange.

The "Edited Ragdoll Physics" mod is a premier candidate for causing this behaviour. It's a mod that directly has to edit the models. I know the author of the mod wanted to apply his changes to my models as well, maybe something went wrong there.

Can anyone else who has this bug confirm or deny that he uses the ragdoll physics mod?

I was using Edited Ragdoll Physics. Disabled it and played a mission; no more invisible Sectoid Solider and the AI behaved normally. It seems that Edited Ragdoll Physics may have been the culprit here. Anyone else want to verify?

Someone else confirmed this in the comments.

Glad that seems to be sorted out then :)
