A FIX FOR THE COMMANDER BUILD MENU FLASH BUG: When this happens, scroll the screen to you Commander console building and CLICK on the building selecting it again. Then it should work. At least works for me.
My bug: LISTENservers (non-dedicated)cannot be made. The game thinks they are some sort of LAN servers and wont let anyone join.
Heavy Machine Gun Ammo Bug --------------------------
If you fill up the HMG with ammo, then fire away but without finishing the first magazine then press reload you often end up with a full magazine and with the same amount of overall ammo and sometimes more. For example, you fill up to 150/255 then fire off 50 rounds and reload and end up with say 150/255 again or sometimes say 150/240 or more.
Start Menu Shortcut Bug -----------------------
The start menu shortcut doesn't work correctly (I've seen some posts about this and also had the same problem), it is because the shortcut is created without a 'Start in:' entry (this should be set to 'C:\SIERRA\Half-Life' or whatever is relevant to your system. You can fix it by adding this yourself via a right click on the icon and selecting 'properties' to access these settings.
Don't be disheartened guys by all these bugs, NS is a fantastic and addictive game. VERY well thought out and designed IMHO.
First off great mod!!!!!! One bug that has happened to me more then once is when I build chambers/resource towers I will get stuck in then and I can't move fire spit or anything. The only fix is to kill yourself. The spot that I was building the tower in had more then enough room. So it was not like the tower was getting pushed on me from a wall. The only other thing that my be the cause is I'm a 56ker. Although I have tried not moving for like 10 secs before I build the tower and it still happens every know and then.

yup that happens with me but nearly all of my binds dont work,luckily enough of the binds work so i can play the game without any problems.its just binds like the one above and stuff equip menu ,advanced and normal build menu,etc
Oh yeah, I hate that so much! I'm always getting stuck inside my own buildings as a gorge (and I have occasionally gotten my marines stuck in buildings as a commander by accident).
By the way: When playing on no lag servers (ie, local servers with good specs and low player numbers), I no longer experience any problems with menu artifacts, command console flashing menus or not being able to pick up ammo if I keep reloading before emptying my lmg clip (usually starts happening if I dont empty a clip for about 10 or so reloads. Is always fixed by emptying current clip).
1. Once I was about to upgrade my self as an alien, and browsing through the options. As I did this, the alien team won the match, and I was put to ready room. Problem was i still had a mouse cursor on screen and couldnt get it out. It had turned into a blue arrow, and the upgrade menu was gone. So I couldn't turn, so moving was bit hard. I managed to strafe out of the ready room though.
2. Im not unhappy with this one, but every time I evolve or upgrade, the evolving finishes a little earlier than it should according to the progress bar.

OK, i had a strange bug....
a turret was build at a place were it should impossible to build one. It looks like that (ASCI WORK...)
__ \_*_/ *
ok, explenation. It was on nancy i think. One of those metal things on teh ground that was nearly destroid. The turret was in the brush.. only the thing that could fire look out... i wasent able to kill it as a alien.
Also, on hera, there is a little "bride" with water under it. When you evolve as a alien on it you fall in the water... i dont know if this happens everytime, but it happens to me 3 times.
