Korpah Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 not sure if this is a bug so thats why i posted it here but i noticed that terror sites are clear-able by assaulting the ufo that is causing the terror. by doing this you will get an easier map (smaller) fewer civilians been shot (better score in the end) and more money cause you capture a ufo so you get good amounts of alloys etc. i think its strange that its possible but not sure if it works as intended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GizmoGomez Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 It's intended. If you manage to catch them beforehand, then great! You deserve bonus cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korpah Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 well prob is its not "beforehand" cause i get the msg from the terror site, then i fly there and a few hours later (it cost time to travel) i "arive" but a few seconds before i arrive at the terror site it get the msg that a grounded ufo is discovered, so then i send my charlie there clear it and the terror side is gone as well or is it intended that you get the msg "a terror site" which means a ufo ground force has landed, you go there clear the ufo which means you cleared the ground forces?

Sathra Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I just made the base score difference noticeable. So you can do the terror mission for a relations boost, or the UFO for the loot. Might increase the score increase for terror missions a bit more, for a more noticeable effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svidangel Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Heh, or toss in the free reactors as loot for doing the terror mission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon_Spartan Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Is the fact that as soon as I divert my Charlie the mission fails a bug, or are the world leaders literally watching my every move? Not that I'm surprised, given that if there is even a single alien base anywhere in the world and I'm not leading forces to take it out, the UN starts docking my bonus.

Sathra Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 The cash drain is a bug (its not connected to game speed). The instant fail is due to that while a dropship is en-route, the mission won't time out. It doesn't pause though so if its timed out but staying due to the 'en-route' bonus it'll fail as soon as the dropship is re-routed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenomorph Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I did this yesterday, after getting the ufo cleared the terror site was also gone, but still got the message it had been nuked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Ok...that's just odd. Maybe the check isn't instant, so the mission timed out just before the 'no causative UFO' check was done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
