How do you edit terror mission frequency? Specifically in Magnumnauts


X-Ray

Recommended Posts

Hi, was playing Magnumnauts and raged after I got two terror missions in the first month. I was wondering how you could edit the frequency of terror missions that happen per month, as I looked in the AM_Terror.xml config file and couldn't really figure anything out.

I also found an interesting subunit of the reaper while poking around in the Magnumnauts alien unit folder and found a subunit of the reaper only known as the 'martyr'. It had one weapon, a bombvest, but the Spectre XML file inside was for civvy units. Was this a part of earlier Xenonauts versions or added in this mod? It doesn't have any animations.

Magnumnauts modder is not here so I don't think someone can answer specific questions about it.

About terror missions, look to the game config file. There is a line about how many days should be passed between 2 terror mission.

Thanks Drages. I've lowered the terror mission chance per wave from 20 to 5%. One question, does the Ticker Value dictate how many days before terror missions start ingame? Default ticker value for X:CE is 200.

IIRC the martyr was added by Magnumnauts. It was supposed to use civilian animations to replicate a suicide bomber, but I'm not sure if he got around to completing it.

I seem to remember the modder who made Magnumauts had plans for making a civilian with a bombvest who could blow up aliens. So that is consistent with the civvy unit sprites. He has a thread about it somewhere in this forum.
