I would like to make a request.
The feature:If a mission site (such as a terror mission) is not resolved by victory (battle won by X-Com) before it expires, or if X-Com loses this battle, a UFO spawns at the same location.
This UFO and its trajectory is defined in alienDeployments.
If the trajectory not specified, the UFO should do the "GTFO into space" manoeuvre.
The justification:It would expand a modder's tools, allowing for new ways of mission presentation.
A simple example: Alien Abduction. Instead of vanilla, each Abductor now generates a mission site. This mission site (battle) contains the UFO and its crew, as well as some civilians to harass and whatever you want. If you lose this mission, or you don't go at all, it vanishes, spawning an Abductor which then leaves the planet.
Thanks, and I hope that this request is not too silly or anything.
