Suggestions / Soldier Search

« on: February 17, 2019, 08:30:05 pm »

A menu item where you can type in a text field and it searches for a soldier with that name would be super useful, especially if it told you what base they were in, or even if they a soldier that died.
Originally I thought of this as an idea that would be useful for The Yogscast's stream, due to them naming people after donators, and people asking to see if their person is still alive. I also figure it's just generally useful regardless though!

Suggestions / Mitigate your losses

I was thinking it would be really cool if you could mitigate your losses when fleeing a terror mission etc.

Like what if you could knock out civvies and take them on your craft with you when you evac, and you get some points for it?
It would make sense, and its kinda just a cool thing to pull off in a dire situation.

Troubleshooting / Re: Can't find save!

Check in your "%LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore" folder (copy-paste that path into explorer). OpenXcom can't write to files in Program Files, so Windows will be redirecting it to the VirtualStore.

thank you very much! found it instantly!

Troubleshooting / Can't find save!

« on: October 29, 2017, 03:14:43 am »

I'm playing with The Final Modpack v1.9.7 and using nightly 2017-08-11 02:03.

I've looked in Documents and Documents/My Games and don't find any Open Xcom folder, and in my Open Xcom installation folders there is a user folder but with no save games, just my options config and The Final Modpack installation. I cannot find my save game for the life of me!

Searching for .sav also is not coming up with anything. My save is fully functional in the game however.

EDIT: I should also note that I have Show hidden files and folders enabled so it can't be that they are hidden
