UFO landed - time = 5sec

Is it possible to automatic slow down game to 1 speed when chased UFO land on ground? Its hard to notice it.

I'd like to expand on that. Could we get an options menu where we can tick/untick a whole bunch of trigger conditions to slow the game down to 5s? Maybe make it appear when we right click the clock or sth.

otherwise, +1

+1, these would be very useful features.

I'd like to support this feature too. I've already lost the opportunity to catch an uncrashed UFO on the ground. The idea of getting a pristine, untouched UFO for the lab boffins sounds like something that would make a commander very motivated.

+1 to OP and +1 to the tick/untick options : )

Isn't 5s speed already slow enough? lol. I guess there's no reason to not include a "pause" feature too, is there? Why have 1s when you have 5s? Might as well make it a pause. Personally I don't care, just expanding on it with my thoughts.

Toggles/ticks options for notifications of certain circumstances (such as UFO landing) would be awesome! Sometimes you bump up the speed so your interceptors get to the target quicker and it lands and it takes a second to react to slow the game-time. That second, two hours of in-game time goes by and just before your chinook gets there, the UFO takes off.

Or you end up with a night mission on your hands instead of a day mission.

Zach who was talking about 1s speed? as far as I can tell OP is talking about 1 > speed = 5 seconds.

I also like the option to either press "OK" and stay on the same speed or "5sec OK" slow it down to 5sec like in X-COM. Sucks that on X-COM you didn't have that option when certain projects finished, so if you were at 1day speed, and research finished, you would have to be quick to press 5 sec speed after pressing OK.

Of course there need to be more benefits from landed ufo like priceless elerium in Xcom ))

Hehehehehe yep, specifically getting supply ships helped a whole lot though.

Fair point. I'll add this to my "possible stuff to implement in beta" list.

Nooooo - my list was lost when my SSHD failed. God dammit.

Hmmm make new one??? )) BTW sad to heaar it....its annoying to start something from scratch:((

Quick everyone, make up some great stuff and tell Chris it was on his list.

preplaced explosives on submaps! for booby trapping alien bases and cause cave ins makeing certain paths in the base randomly inaccessible.

Is this possible already? to place equipment or "interactive objects" on the submaps?

Hmm this could be fun. If it's not possible already I might have to expand on the idea to make it more attractive.
