I'd like to build PR 1.2 from sources, but I need to know which release of Vega Strike engine was used to build binaries for this game (I'm asking for the tag used with the -r option in cvs). Can anyone tell me that?

before_spiritplumber_a should be pretty close. Hellcat?

CVS should likely be compatible. I don't think that we have had any changes that would break the PR dataset.

You haven't had a look at buglist.txt have you..

Your mentioning of buglist.txt brings me to...

What's the difference between lines 295/308 (for the guns) and 239 (for the unit, which seems to work)?
Changing if (d) to if (true) for the guns makes them draw on bases
They always draw in space, so something about being on base is wrong. On base the ships have undergone a transformation or something to be where they are?
The ships' line for calculating d seems to take that into account while the guns' does not, so the guns don't draw on the bases (really reaching here)
fixed. changed it to if (true) since drawnow is only used for base screens anyway, made no sense for it to be broken then

Ships on landing pad are a lot larger now, and no longer centered on the pad. Animated engine sprites in the docking view if engines were going when you press 'd' or ram the station. Does 'd' even work anymore?

Fixed.
Well... not the bigness and uncenteredness... I didn't notice any of those problems. (notice, they may be there without me noticing them).
Will commit tomorrow, if I remember to bring the files

The problem with the mounts not being drawn was that the DrawNow() version incorrectly computed the mountpoint's location (so it was being drawn offscreen).
