Sathra Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Yeah, the Scout thing is a bug, though I thought it was fixed. Aliens rarely go in the engine room anyways. You should be able to just drag and drop the items onto the huge area at the bottom of the inventory screen. That's the ground inventory.

steelwarrior Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share Posted May 2, 2013 ok - thanks - now all my Xenonauts in the German Lets Play are dead - but I will strike back... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) You can right-click when aiming at an alien to increase chance to hit, though each shot will cost more TU's (not with burst fire though). Works with medikits too, so they heal more per action. You can also right-click in the equip screen which will load the item onto the soldier in the order of hands-belt-backpack. There are also are templates, through clicking on the red and black letter. Its 'equip default loadout', and it'll equip the loadout set for the role. You set the loadout with 'change default loadout'. 'Change role' changes the role to A(ssualt), S(niper), etc. Edited May 2, 2013 by Sathra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelwarrior Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) Thanks - can I save my default choice anywhere? Can I blow up the alien Ship or its doors with C4? Edited May 2, 2013 by steelwarrior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Just save it to a role (A/S/H, etc), then make sure the trooper has that role before loading the loadout. Also don't need to load them up so heavy, since that reduces their movement range. You can only blow up the doors with C4, the rest of the ship is invulnerable. More tips: The green ring around a trooper in the shot path means that the unit is in the line of fire. If there's a red square in the shot path, it means the shot is blocked (by an obstacle or the UFO or whatever). Yellow squares means either there's a chance for the shot to be stopped (by cover, it'll have a percentage) or its out of the weapon's effective range (where accuracy and damage drops off rapidly, there's be lots of yellow squares).

Sathra Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 You can assign and unassign troopers from the dropship in the personnel screen. You can't actually see the health from the equip screen. Oh and forgot, there's a bug with sniper rifles. It'll show low or no chance if hit sometimes if the alien is in cover, even though they'll usually hit.

Sathra Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Got to educate the Let's Players, since players might use them to learn how to play the game. If you know, and talk about it, you can help others! Because really, who reads the manual these days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelwarrior Posted May 7, 2013 Author Share Posted May 7, 2013 I will upload the next Lets Play with version 18.4 as ongoing that means I will Play untill the last save of 18.3 and then record again... @Sathra will your little mod also work there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Which little mod? The accuracy change I made for you or my other mod? I can make the accuracy mod again for the next version after the build is authorised, but the other mod I'll make a day or two after the build is available so I can get a handle on the new changes.

steelwarrior Posted May 7, 2013 Author Share Posted May 7, 2013 sure that would be great - I would wait for your mod for 18.4 - please just post it here as soon as you have it - as I want to have a more balanced Lets Play ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Okay, just the accuracy fix then. Wish Desura would hurry up about it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelwarrior Posted May 7, 2013 Author Share Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) yeah me too - well the complete mod would be great as well - might just take more time? Edited May 7, 2013 by steelwarrior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I'd prefer knowing what effect the changes have on the vanilla game have before I start changing things. Mostly the stuff that wasn't mentioned in the changelog. So yeah, a day or two before the more complete mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelwarrior Posted May 7, 2013 Author Share Posted May 7, 2013 Hey everyone - the new Version is out - now i only wait for Sathras mod for a new Lets Play ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
