OXCE Suggestions DONE / Re: [WIP] [Suggestion] Earth-based alien operations
« on: April 09, 2024, 10:31:20 pm »

So, I have added some new attributes to alien mission ruleset.
The main attribute is "operationType", which says if it is an Earth-based operation or not.

Possible values:

 - 3 = AMOT_REGION_NEW_BASE_IF_NECESSARY = use an existing alien base in the mission region, if there is none, create a new one
 - 5 = AMOT_EARTH_NEW_BASE_IF_NECESSARY = use any existing alien base, regardless of region, if there is none, create a new one (in the mission region)
 - 6 = AMOT_EXISTING_BASE_HUNT_MISSION = don't do anything = use the already assigned base that spawned this mission


Doubt:
Do these work only for alienMissions created from genMission, or also for alienMissions created by missionScripts?

edit: I guess this is a dumb question, values 3 and 5 must work with missionScripts otherwise it would make no sense.

Where should `recoverCorpse` be defined? The corpse item or the live unit item? (Both?)

If this is an alien base site, then it should probably look like this:

Code: [Select]
  STR_CULT_GREATEST_MANOR_EXALT_ASSAULT: "EXALT Manor"
  STR_CULT_GREATEST_MANOR_EXALT_ASSAULT_: "EXALT Manor-{0}"
(example from XCF)

The line with an underscore is for numbering alien bases (base number 1, 2, 3 etc.).
is this needed only for base missions or also for site missions?

Help / Base information custom background not working
« on: October 15, 2023, 10:37:28 pm »
I defined a custom image, but it is not used ingame, I don't understand why.

Ruleset:
Code: [Select]
  - type: BACK07.SCR  # base stats
    singleImage: true
    width: 320
    height: 200
    files:
      0: Resources/apoc/BACK_SCR/BACK07_SCR.png
Image attached.
Full mod here: https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,3319.0.html

Anyone could help me understand what's wrong?
Thank you

new version up, 0.25.0.

haven't had enough time for testing, sorry about that, expect bugs.
the final mission is also bugged: you should be able to complete it by destroying the critical MCD, but it doesn't seem to work, don't know why.

So..
If I add those attributes to the stats of an alien armor, say the Chryssalid armor, the alien will be able to climb walls?

Thanks for the explanation. That one in particular is a mission site but none of my base sites has the "-{0}", I need to fix that.

Thanks for the feedback and the translation!
I think that the strings with the "_" at the end are necessary: they are computed during execution, so there isn't a corresponding entry in the ruleset, but you still have to provide the text.
(I think they are used in the popup that appears when you L-click on an existing alien site/base. I don't remember the details, perhaps I misunderstood).
