thothkins Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Would it be possible to be able to add an option when creating maps, to allow the the Chinook to begin the mission on level 1 of the map, instead of level 0 ? This would then allow there to be a level beneath the ground. This would open up the game to have the maps such as Mines, Catacombs, Bunkers, Sewers, Basements and Caves modded in at a later date. Not to mention sublevels for potential Hive missions. Another option with this would be that it would enable the chinook to land on top of a building and a mission to clear out the occupants from the top down.

Gauddlike Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Alien bases would work better that way as well for me. Land the Chinook on the surface, breach the entrance and then work down the levels clearing them as you go. Not essential for the vanilla game but something that would be really nice to have for mapmakers and modders later I feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted December 24, 2012 Author Share Posted December 24, 2012 Yeah, I think so too. It really opens up a lot of possibilities for people who may prefer certain types of map to work with after the release. One mechanism with a huge number of possibilities. Cpl Hicks for example, would be only one of many to have his Xenonauts take a trip to sub level 3 Sgt thothkins: Here, Gauddlike, take this. Cdr Gaudlike: Um thothkins, it's a sword? Sgt thothkins: Right. You're going to need it in there. I here tavern tales that it's five levels of pain in there. Cdr Gauddlike: It's a BSL-4 rated biohazard containment facility, thothkins, not a dungeon. Sgt thothkins: don't want your chainmail then?

Gauddlike Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I only want it if it is +2. No way I am going into a BSL-4 biohazard area in +1 chainmail. That will never stop a close range plasma burst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
