I couldn't find a bug report forum so I'm posting here in the absence of a better place.

Symptoms:
Game Crashes if you let the first wave of New Order Grunts kill the weapons instructors - in particular the third one who won't instruct you until the grunts are killed.

How to reproduce:
Run the tutorial, when you get to the point that the first attack happens don't attack until the instructors are dead. Kill the grunts then proceed to get more weapons training. As the guy is dead and no longer available the game crashes.

There is a specific error given at the same time, but unfortunately, due to the nature of the crash it wasn't possible for me to copy it down - the game still had control of the screen and I couldn't get anything to display over it.

I've tried this on two different PCs just to be sure it wasn't the PC and had it crash in both.

Suggestion:
Make the instructors invulnerable or give them insane amounts of health. Alternatively, only spawn the instructor after the grunts are killed (have him come out the supply ship or sommat).

If it helps, this was tested with the latest Steam build.

Bansama,

Thank you very much for bringing this to my attention. I will reproduce and fix.

*Edit
Well found, I'm amazed that didn't come up in beta testing, I've fixed it. We are looking into another issue someone else is having (with the launcher), we expect have an update out in a couple of days. Thanks again.
