xenonauts 2 beginner's guide - page 8 - explanation of elite supporters is confused/incorrect

What Happened

Out of curiosity I clicked on the link to the manual (the beginner's guide) from the steam store page

There are three levels of Supporters:

  • Infiltrator - This supporter has been taken over by the aliens and negatively affects the world, usually increasing the Doomsday counter.
  • Neutral - Provides no benefits.
  • Recruited - Officially recruited by the Xenonauts and provides its category benefits.

You will need to use your Operation Points to either a) Eliminate an Infiltrator or b) Recruit the Supporter to your side. Elite Supporters require more Operations Points, and will turn Neutral, before you would need to then spend more Operations Points to Recruit. Each Region will provide a substantial bonus to the organization should you recruit all Supporters in that Region.

The bold text is incorrect.

 

Suggestion, & taking the liberty of also explaining a little more about (a) how to see what the regional bonuses are and (b) the green dot discount mechanic:

Eliminating an Infiltrator requires Operations Points, stopping their negative effect, but turns them Neutral before you would need to then spend more Operations Points to Recruit.  Elite Supporters require more Operations Points to recruit.

Each Region will provide a substantial bonus to the organization should you recruit all Supporters in that Region. You can see the bonus by clicking on the Region name to the left of each group of 4 Supporters.

At any given time, some Supporters will be Isolated (indicated by a green dot), reducing the Operation Points cost to recruit or eliminate them, while other Supporters will be Heavily Guarded (indicated by a red dot), increasing the corresponding Operation Points cost.
