Moonshine Fox Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Chris has mentioned the possibility of various information overlays on the geoscape map.None of them have made it into the versions we have seen yet though. This would probably get more attention though if you put it into its own thread in the suggestions forum. Yeah, I was just pressed for time when I made the initial post, so I didn't actually think about the suggestions forum. Will do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 thanks for the toggle roof button reminder. How did I manage to not see that? It practically has dancing XCom soldiers on it. What a difference it makes too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakey Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Well while I'm glad there is a manual, I'll be buggered if I read it. I'll carry on like a 'man' and just fumble my way through it. If anything I'm roleplaying the organisation when faced with something completely unheard of, by royally screwing everything up. Basically I didn't know I could buy dropships or F17s until I had four bases full of MiGs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 At the moment you can even buy them when your current craft are shot down during an interception. Then you can send your new planes out on the same mission as delivery is instant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinaljack Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I don't think the manual mentions losing conditions or what happens if you can't pay maintenance bills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamgee Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 This was incredibly handy in teaching me some stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammacitto Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Developer commentary is a good to know what will be coming in the next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusherven Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 If I or someone else went through this manual and added screenshots and/or art from the webpage, would that be useful to the developers? It'd be nice to have a prettier manual, but I'd rather not take developer time up doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted July 30, 2012 Author Share Posted July 30, 2012 If the screenshots are useful, then yes. If it's just pictures, then I'm not sure we need them in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poulwrist Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Why isn't it a google doc btw? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnarly Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 This will be included in all of the builds, and available for download from our website (link below). Essentially it just explains the function and basic controls for all of the screens in the game, as well as a bit of developer commentary on how we'll be developing the screens. Ermm, is this actually in the current build (13.2?) Cannot find it in there (no docs folder, readme or manual), only found by searching forum. Needs to be stickied!

jonthan Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Thanks for the manual:) This game (when its polished) has all the things I missed when I´d played Xcom-Enemy unknown on my Amiga CD32 back in 94-95:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
