Okay, I updated everything and it went off without a hitch. There was some weirdness like my interceptor being equipped with light missiles and the Human Sacrifices shifting position but, those are all solved quite easily

Everything is looking good, thanks for putting up with my shenanigans

Well, that's good but. I am going from 2.5 to 2.9. So I'm hoping that's not too much of a drastic change for it. I guess there's nothing to do but go for it. Maybe after making a copy of everything in case I have to revert for some reason

The X-Com Files / Is it safe to update mid game?

Hi, I started an LP of this game a while ago, about half a year ago at this point. And the version of the game I'm working with is Version 2.5. I would like to update to the newer version, but I don't want to break anything. Is it safe to do so? Or should I try and finish it out in version 2.5?

I've done mine correctly as far as I can tell. I just need to actually do the research and see if it pans out

The way that it happened is that somehow I never got a "Safehouse" mission and have only continued to get "investigation" missions. So basically I've been waiting this entire time hoping that maybe I would be lucky enough to get a mission where I can find a Disciple of Dagon in the first place.

Anyway, thank you for telling me. I'm going to do myself a favor and throw the Disciple of Dagon in my cells now

So I've hit September but haven't hit Promotion II because I've somehow only fought the basic Church of Dagon soldiers despite having researched them extensively. This is despite my having hit every other requirement 2 months ago. I'm having traumatic flashbacks of the last time I played this game and over a year in I somehow hadn't caught a Red dawn Pioneer yet.

How would I go about say... editing the safe file and putting a Tier 2 Church of Dagon soldier into my prison to be interrogated? And maybe double-check that the "Has Researched Church of Dagon" flag has been raised.
