Is it possible to tell me how to get promotions?  I'm not asking for everything here, just small bit of advice. I've been researching but maybe I missed something.

For the first one, get acquainted with the cults and strange animals. For the second, get the whole gang together. The General Strategy reports have good clues imo.

As an absolute modding noob beyond pressing enable and disable on stuff in the mods folder, how would I go about adding these to my XPiratez game?

Once again, this mod causes an error with STR_SECTOPOD_ARMOR2 when running the latest X-COM Files.
[ERROR]   During linking rulesets of armors:
Error for 'STR_SECTOPOD_ARMOR2': Number of battle corpse items for 'corpseBattle' does not match the armor size.
Deleting it from Armors rul fixes the issue.

It's not this mod, it's Arsenal Additions.

Hey it's just a cool name, that's the whole real reason. As for the correct or wrong number of "g's" English isn't my native language, also it is itself loose in such matters, there's at least 2-3 different pronounciations for most of the "English" (often taken from other languages) names. Besides I hardly find myself caring that much about what some oversensitive American thinks considering my country can get bombed and/or invaded by Russia before this year is over, and I'll be in the trenches.

@Interdictor:
Hey, Jewish names and surnames are widely represented. Latino-less so, agreed.

Ah, my mistake, I guess I'm the uncultured one. I'm sure they're very cool for everyone involved and I hope they keep you warm in those trenches you mentioned.

Loved the mod otherwise, keep up the great work!

Outrageous. If this true I demand at least latinos and jews represented correspondingly. Maintaining equality and diversity does matter.

Hey quick question, is there like an artistic or otherwise explanation for why the list of countries on the real earth has the hard n-word in at least three countries? Thanks

It is the French/Italian/Spanish, etc word for black. Is the surname of actor Jack Black racist too?

Here is a link to the Niger (surname) family history. https://www.houseofnames.com/niger-family-crest
This is older than the black slave trade.

Every surname from this list is real. Such name did/does exist, there were people carrying it - well, there is even a country with this name.

Yeah, so, you just casually threw in the extra 'g'? No biggie, right? It's the far future in-universe, language gets muddled, right?

Is the surname 'faggot' in there too for historical accuracy?

Hey quick question, is there like an artistic or otherwise explanation for why the namelist for humans has the hard n-word in the list of surnames? Thanks

Using latest github. New agents seemed to use a name from incorrect lists, usually from the country previous to the one they're genned with.
