It was something with nav mesh. I don't have this bug anymore, but please report if you still have it. I'm releasing this update only on Gamemaps and will release on workshop once its confirmed fixed.

Got mixed results. I tried starting on map 4 direct (on Easy) and it still happened. At least the bots came through the gate with me this time so I was able to abandon them and run on ahead. I then tried playing the whole campaign through on Advanced, and when I got to map 4 it didn't do it in the ice world's first panic event. When I opened the door to the generator room and activated the 2nd panic event, no horde came after me, so I activated the stargate and went out to wait in front of it (still no enemies coming after me). After the whole party went through the gate, THEN the horde came for me - seemed they were all waiting in the ladder shaft - AND I could hear the 4 Tanks coming.

Another update. This time I added nav file from version 7.

OK did several tests: . Start at map 4 - got the Tanks coming when the first panic event was still going . Start from map 1 - map 4's spawns worked properly . Start at map 4 & did things in proper order (activated the Tank after the first panic event, went to the generator room to start second panic event and turn on stargate) Start from map 1 & use shortcut on map 4 (I can open the generator room by pressing E a little bit on the Tank but nowhere near long enough to wake it up) - I could hear most of the horde from the first panic event at a distance which means they mostly spawned in the next area instead of the ice world. Pretty much nothing came after me during the generator room's panic event either. Once the stargate was working, I pushed one bot through before entering myself and it looked like the horde timed out cuz nothing was waiting for me on the other side. The 4 Tanks spawned at their normal spot. . Restart of map 4 from 4th test & didn't skip Tank cutting - first panic event spawned the horde in the ice world, 2nd spawned remotely in the next area. Pushed 2 bots through the gate and dealt with the horde waiting for me. Had to wait a while for the last bot to teleport-spawn to me. This time the 4 Tanks spawned properly and I got a horde cry when I went through the door to the tunnel. . Overall, consistently inconsistent. My guess is maybe spawn distance needs to be shorter so things don't spawn in the next area before you're done with the current one. Since I've seen specials trigger panic events in other campaigns, I wonder if something spawning way too far ahead sometimes triggers the Tanks and the tunnel door panic event early, because sometimes I find the tunnel door destroyed (and not because of the early Tanks) and there's no panic event when I step into the tunnel.

I know how to make string tables. The problem is that it doesn't really matter if I release now fixed version because someone will steal it again anyway and with another meaningless excuse. It happened before and it will happen again.

the big difference you should care about is YOU own the rights to YOUR own creation. you're still active and around in the community. all you need to do is file the DMCA when you report it and it'll be removed. besides, if you truly think you are capable of fixing the string table issues, then do so. keeping it updated properly will help combat against people stealing it, as well as adding your own disclaimers. you are the creator and owner, and you have the right to file against others and report them. otherwise, with all due respect, if this is the attitude you want to have about it, pass it down onto someone who knows what they're doing. at least retire it onto another author who is experienced you feel you could trust who will protect it and keep it updated when necessary. just trying to help you or I wouldn't even be here about this again like the other times. i remember the other times it was "Huck" related and that wasn't someone you want to associate with. and now this other user didn't even credit you and it makes it even more disrespectful. have some pride in your own work, don't give up on it.
