Solution
Solved it. The problem was with entry points -- I forgot to insert an entry point in some of the ruins scenes. Now I feel like an idiot ... 
It could be that it's related to a new introduced scene prop or armour which is present in that scene.

Edit: oops, spoke too soon. Still need help! The bug reappeared. It's only occurring when I use a particular mission template and menu combination. The same mission template accessed through a different menu gives no glitches. FYI I'm using an adaptation of Highlander's hunting mission from Age of Machinery, copied from the original 1.011 code.
Is there anything in the mission template code or game menus code that could be causing the problem?
