The X-Com Files / Is there an easy way to re-research multiple things w/out alot of save edit ?
« on: June 20, 2022, 06:01:20 am »
So I tend to play this modpack in short spurts when I am in the mood for Xcom, sometimes long enough between that there is a major update or two. I don't feel like starting fresh each time I feel like some Xcom so I continue the same game, which I know leads to its own problems and missed opportunities one of which is a minor problem I am now wanting to work out.
I was looking through the Data Viewer and only recently noticed I was missing the Alenium Shard you apparently get from the X-COM History: Kiryu-Kai research that was added so many updates ago. I believe I had already gotten the research some time before that update and then skipped ahead a few more when I lost and regained interest, causing difference in research. (I have only now just gotten around to clearing cults by 1999 which shows how slow I am at this game)
I know this is a problem entirely of my own doing by not updated frequently or restarting if needed, and I have messed with the save for this one instance and re-research the tech and it worked out fine.
So far it hasn't been a major problem and I wouldn't have noticed I was missing anything if I hadn't randomly come across it. I am just curious if there are other things I may have missed out on in my long, infrequent campaign and if there was a good way to refresh the research short of editing the save and re-researching everything I have.
