My main complaint is about architecture. You have to wait on the ground floor for 30 turns until some of the enemies come down, and then run to the stairs for a long time and climb for a long time. 95% of the tower itself is not explored, as enemies are hanging around the stairs. This mission is long and tedious. It's light and very frustrating. Something needs to be changed in it.

I kind of wrote about this earlier. There's a terribly frustrating mission that you don't want to go on, even if all the agents are equipped with the latest technology. This is the lotus tower (golden academy). It's boring, uninteresting, and very long. Aaaaaaaand... It's simple. It's impossible to invent a worse combination. You either need to do something about it, or just cancel it. It's boring to destroy it even with blaster missiles. Either the beginning of the mission should be done on the roof, or the building itself should be made fragile. I do not know, but now it makes the game worse.

I think it's a problem when an object disappears during the cancellation of production. I have already started production on the same base twice, but there was not enough space in the workshops to appoint engineers. I decided to move production to another base and cancelled the project. The damaged minigun tank just disappeared. The same thing happened with the synthetic suite. It's delusional and frustrating.

Yes, they spawn near the edges... I don't think I can specifically prevent them from spawning near enemies.
Alternatively, choose 2-3 squares instead of the entire perimeter for spawn. This will be acceptable, even if the special forces find themselves in a room with the enemy. He will either be there with others, or with friends nearby.

this map is 5x5, so right in the middle...?
The area is 50*50. Special forces spawn randomly around the perimeter at a distance of 10 cells from the edge. I have 5-7 commandos in rooms mixed up with the enemies. And in different parts of the area. It's the strangest start I've ever seen. A pair of commandos started the mission right in the middle of the armory with about 5+ enemies. I would narrow down the respawn strip to 2-3 cells from the terrain-edge so that the special forces would spawns outside the rooms.

> Implying there's a rule to what spawns where :3

Well, I could enforce spawning locations... What do you have in mind?
Okay. I can be more specific. The appearance of special forces on random squares 10 away from the edge of the map is bad. I would change 2-3 cells from the edge of the map.

The armory of the apocalypse. Something needs to be done about it. The respawn points of antiterrorism are completely perplexing. It feels like the anti-terror and the apocalypse had a party, and then they quarreled and started shooting at each other. It is doubly strange to see such a huge rating penalty for killed commandos. This is one of those missions where there's not the slightest point in going.

There's 4 in bAI, if you start counting at 0.
But yes, everything above 3 will act the same as 3.
The OG only had 0, 1 and 2.

It's frustrating, but I can't suggest anything to improve. It would be strange to make xcomfiles a reference. And it is most likely impossible to determine the number of variables used for different levels of aggression and to make a gradation through the arithmetic mean.

There are 10 enemy aggression values in xcomfiles. There are 3 of them in bAI. Does this mean that the "inherit unit aggression" parameter will not work correctly for all units that have it higher than 3?

Problematic structure. The stairs to the upper level are not working. The enemy is there, but for some reason it is impossible to get to him.

Twice already I have had the mission of political assassination of a cult. The briefing indicates that the VIP's security will be under my control. And both times there was no VIP security at all. Vip was surrounded by enemies alone.


Upd
The third time is the same.

--- posts merge - Solarius Scorch ---

And 1 more time.

I won't write much. I have a very frustrating experience playing on basic AI settings in xcomfiles. Until I set the AI difficulty to 5, aggression to 2 and shooting to 3 by trial, error and advice, the game was strange and funny at the same time. She was no more complicated than an ordinary AI. Why not make these settings(523) the default? And I would also add a bit of chaos and randomness to the AI so that it would not be so predictable. Sometimes it seems to me that I control the actions of my units over the actions of the enemy.

I'm sorry that I'm writing this here, but do you know where the boxce thread went on the forum?

It needs 7.62x51 NATO Ammo. It seems that it's only unlocked by m-60, but not by mg-3

I researched the purchase of an mg3 machine gun. Now I can buy it. But without bullets. There are no cartridges for it in the purchase lists.
