Templer Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) I am finished my mission in which I killed unknown ETs. Now, before I return home to base with my crew, I already get the results of the autopsy for these unknown ETs. Shouldn't I return home first, passed the bodies of These ETs to the laboratory, and then wait for the autopsy results?

Dranak Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Researches that just give lore details happen automatically instead of making you spend research time on them. Since the Chinook is so very slow, it's pretty common that the time passes enough for them to trigger before making it back to base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Caine Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 There's a 12 hour delay before 0-day research (such as autopsies) appears on the screen. As Dranak says, you're likely to see it before the dropship returns back to base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ventuswings Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Change it to 24 hr to avoid incongruity? Wouldn't matter either way for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Caine Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 The value is settable in either gameconfigs or config - I can't remember which one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alienman Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 The two pilots also serve as researchers, while one pilots the chinook the other one performs the autopsy in front of all the Xenonauts agents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SyDaemon Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 In the post mission briefing screen, it says "sent to research division" or something along those lines. That suggests that a lot of government "clean up crew" shows up post mission to bag and tag, collect artifacts, and distribute the items found. I personally explain the super fast autopsy by assuming that the clean up crew is really efficient at handing the newly discovered alien corpses to the medical research staff, and that they then proceed to pull an all nighter on their new prize.

Irishguy117 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Originally it was set to have the research not begin until the dropship returned home but this caused a bunch of bugs and was generally not worth the trouble it was causing If I remember correctly. Setting it to 24 hours might solve the problem I suppose, shouldn't be all that irritating of a delay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You hit the Point! It looks as if we have to accept that. Still, it "feels" not right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
