Title: How to build a lab?
Post by: fire_lizard on February 11, 2020, 12:01:29 am

First of all, thank you for making such an excellent mod!
I have just started to play it and my question is: how do I build a lab?
As far as I remember, labs were available for the start in Ufo Defense and Terror from the deep.

You will get that eventually due to research.

However you seem pretty "green" about how mods like X-Com Files work. I suggest you first to start playing MegaMod, which is way closer to the original and will let you grasp all of the concepts.

https://openxcom.mod.io/reavers-faithful-megamod for example.

hi fire_lizard,  I would suggest you to look on gameplay video from Starving_poet on youtube (just type openxcom x files there).
It is older version but you get the idea what this mod is about.

It is completely different from original games, so you have two ways  - play it without spoilers and just enjoy to discover  everything (you may need probably more fresh starts but it is worhty), or watch gameplay videos and/or search topics here.
