Help / How to make HWP's leave recoverable corpses

« on: November 01, 2017, 05:21:56 pm »

This is probably an easy one for most of you.

But, how do you make HWP's leave corpses that can be taken back to base? I want to make it possible to repair them-I have seen this can be done in other mods, but I can't figure how to get past this part.

This is what I am messing with right now, taking the light scout  from the TFTD mod. It can spawn a corpse on the battlefield I can pick up with my soldiers, but the 'wreck' never returns to base with me.
