I think it looks really bad when the aliens are climing on the ceilings and they're not upside down.  They just kind of glid along as if they had velcro on their backs.  The same goes for when they're on walls.  Their bodies should be parallel with the wall and never perpendicular (sticking out 90 degrees).  And now for a serious question.  When you are a commander for the marines, hwo do you upgrade to the advanced armory.  I didn't see an option for this.  Like, I built all of the buildings that I could.  Armory, Turret, Weapons upgrade, and the one that lets you buy jet packs, but i stil couldn't get jet packs or anything new.  I'm confused.  Sorry if i don't make any sense.  Thanks folr your help.  Thanks.  Stefan

    If there had been time to code the model's orientation to surfaces, it would have been done.  It's a purely aesthetic thing, and it doesn't detract from gameplay, so don't worry about it.  It'll probably get changed later, if there's time.

    Now,

    In order to get an advanced armory, you must click on the regular armory that has been built (the actual building) to select it, then you will see the option to select an advanced armory in the command menu (it's an upgrade to the armory, not a separate building).  For jetpacks, you first must have certain pre-requisite buildings, like the prototype lab.  You then click on the prototype building and select the option to research jetpacks from that commander menu.  One the research time has elapsed, you will then be able to select jetpacks from the equip menu and drop them for your troops.
