Henkka77 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I was playing Xenonauts and as almost out of money, i had only $120000. Luckily it was soon the end of the month so i figured that "No problem, i get soon couple million dollars". When the end of the month came, it showed me that funding screen and total funding +2.xxx.xxx dollars. Then i was surprised how my total money were -$150000. Now that aint right, is it? I should have get over 2 million dollars cash. Now i was on negative cash and basically that ended my game. That CANT be right?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 The end of the month is also the time when you pay your personnel's wages (and maintenance?). Maybe you went a bit overboard with building/hiring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greywolf_Starkiller Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Aircraft have a monthly rent (X-com did, not sure about Xenonauts), wages for scientists, Engineers, and Soldiers, and monthly upkeep for base facilities. If you try to do too much at once, you will run out of funding REAL fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anotherdevil Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 also this may not yet be balanced yet, so don't worry too much =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorlom Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Henkka: if this is preventing you from playing you can allways press M for more money. It's an alpha build feature and wont be in the final release but untill then you can print your own money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoIdidnt Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 also Henkka you can sell a lot of the items you have gotten off of downed alien ships from your "stores" tab in your base for millions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henkka77 Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 The end of the month is also the time when you pay your personnel's wages (and maintenance?). Maybe you went a bit overboard with building/hiring? Hmm.. might be just that. I just started playing this the same way like i played XCOM, maybe i should take a little bit more easily at the beginning.. anotherdevil also this may not yet be balanced yet, so don't worry too much =] That was my thought also. NoIdidnt also Henkka you can sell a lot of the items you have gotten off of downed alien ships from your "stores" tab in your base for millions. That i know also, as i did that a lot with the original XCOM. I just forgot selling those. Have to try again with more tight budget..

Chris Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Building maintenance costs are now moddable in the dev version and have been tweaked downwards. They were previously a little...excessive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
