If you are copying your settings to new version, than this option will be "off".
Go to advanced settings and look for it.
With this you will be able to equip soldiers from "hands" menu. All equipment assigned to that soldier will be automatically loaded to a craft when you assign that soldier to it.

Only trick then is having your dogs sniff out the ones in the ventilation ducts.

Why I've never thought of that. I'm so bad at using the tools game provide.

Yes. The more you bleed, the easier it is to reduce recovery time.

Avoid them until you have laser weapons and heavy suit/sniper gear armors. Also get chemical coats if you can. Your biggest enemy and I mean it, are ninja warriors with custom SMG's. Those things are way op in my opinion. Use weapons that disrupt reactions. I assault those guys with with gals equipped with heavy suit + shotgun/riot shield and spears. Once you clear those front bunkers you can use your sniper gear gals to safely clear the field. Use smoke grenades to cover your initial spawns. Be very cautious and methodical ones you get to the habitation zone. Be sure to capture skyforge engineers.

I must confess that I do abuse AI's inability to logically respond to a gal standing on adjacent tile. Any player in such situation would step one tile back and unload autoshot at the enemy. But AI reliably just walks away and ends it's turn.

It's logistics. Convoy is not listed under it. But once researched, you should get convoy as bonus.

You can shoot at anything, flying or not. I do not think there is a code that could limit what a weapon can or can not shoot at. Only what can be mounted on a slot on craft. And those are your weapon categories. If your craft can get in to combat it can shoot with whatever it has on board.

You need to research "heavy duty construction". You need a broken guild engeneer and some pre back to school research for that.

How would you go about defensibility in layout? Does people here just build facilities wherever or do you try to maintain a defensible setup? Because planning ahead while trying to maintain choke points seems quite difficult.

Also to answer your question, the online Bootypedia has the Factory, which is the only 3x3 structure i found while browsing in the past.

Thanks, that makes things easier.

About defense. I do not care about that in main base. It's main base after all. The place where you have all the strongest and best equipped. If I can take on mercenaries and cyberdisks in open field I can deal with them with plenty of cover to hide behind. Also. I did not get a single retaliation until the 3rd year and I shoot things down without care (John Silver). Up till now it was only roaming bands of your standard rats doom guys and ninjas, from which ninjas are most concerning. Someone mentioned earlier that "Fire pit" facility is extremely effective and can be researched relatively early.
The most annoying thing about base defense are sewers and maintenance corridors. Usually a couple of invaders go there and it can take a lot of time to hunt them down.

Be ware of assassin ninjas. They carry suicide bombs in base invasions that can not be disarmed.

Hi everyone, your tips have been very helpful so far, i found simply planning out and getting 2 brainers every month until June to max it out worked out nicely. But i have a question now.

^ in the above quote Ultimoos suggests building 5 Burrows and rushing the large barracks. So my question is, if i build 4 burrows in a 2x2 pattern, can you build the large barracks ontop of those 4 ? I know you can do it for similarly sized facilities, but i have never dared to try and experiment incase it doesn't actually work.

Edit: I realized shortly after posting that my question may not be that wise either way, as i would need to have 40 excess crew space to actually perform the upgrade if it's even possible. I suppose it still doesn't hurt to know if it's possible or not.

Unfortunately you can not put a large building over small ones. You have to plan ahead which is very hard when you do not even know what buildings and how many you'll need later.
Try to save 2x2 spaces in your base if possible for large facilities. Notably: large barracks, large vaults, large prison. All are really optional but are more effective space wise than regular facilities. You'll never be able to cramp all buildings you need in to the main base. But you can always try to rearrange things later on.

And now I have a quick question.
Are there any 3x3 facilities in XPiratez?
