Bugfixing

Overview
All versions of Lost Alpha contain bugs. Some of them have been fixed in subsequent releases, some are present in multiple releases. As v1.4007 was announced to be the final version of Lost Alpha, bugs in this release will most probably not be fixed.

Some of the bugs are quite easy to fix by patching the gamefiles. To do so please read Tweaking the game to get an understanding of the steps required to patch the gamefiles.
