Oh, it is a long and painful story about smokes... In short, enemies can provide a squadsight to their mates, so the others can shoot at your out from their visible area. Despite of the official information, I think smokes are useless in 99% of situations and causes only inconveniences for your soldiers, not enemies'.

Yeah...

I literally never use them.

Other than the workshop project(and with Dioxine's permission of course), the Xpiratez sawed-off shotgun seems like it would fit right in.

Do you mean the different crafts?

That'll be in crafts_XCOMFILES.rul

After you open the mod, go to the ruleset folder and scroll until you see that ruleset.

I haven't actually looked in it, but I assume that that should have all non-vanilla x-com crafts in this mod.

Unless Solarius is nice enough to package it up for you, or if he took another mod and incorporated it, which is a portion of the content but definitely not all of it, your best option is to look through the rulesets and steal what you can.

Luckily, the rulesets are very well organized and the strings are coherent so a simple find tool in many text editors can work wonders. I think MIB is already a mod for the vanilla game that you could find, but searching the rulesets for MIB, brings up most of it.

OXCE Suggestions DONE / Re: Melee dodge and CQC: true percentile indicators displayed

« on: March 28, 2020, 08:27:02 pm »

AI doesn't know ours.
And yes, it's basically a cheat.

Perhaps make this an option for debug mode only? Or an advanced option that can be enabled/disabled in the options menu.

I would love to see this feature implemented, it does feel a little like cheating, however. How would we know the enemy's chance to dodge? I know the AI knows ours, but still.

But think like Lewis and Ben, if they weren't told that that was there, they wouldn't even know it was there.

It's a pretty big button...

On the Osiron beach missions there are generally surfboards scattered all over, I don't think you loot them and it's intended for them to not be available anywhere else. I think they are just supposed to be thematic, cause it's a beach mission.

Quick question for my personal gameplay as I understand that Dioxine does not like having this option enabled, where is the ruleset file that forces options to be on/off, I would like to turn the UFO landing alert option to true but can't find it.

The X-Com Files / Re: How Bio-enhancement work?

« on: March 25, 2020, 02:22:48 pm »

Haven't actually made it to this point in the game but I assume that bio-enhancement is a soldier transformation which can be found in the agents tab of your hideout, then click the button in the bottom left and you should find bio-enhancement as an option, click on that and select a soldier from the list. If there aren't any soldiers on the list then none are qualified to undergo the transformation. If bio-enhancement doesn't pop up as an option then you don't have the necessary facility for it.

Meridian I apologize, this was my bad . The update to OXCE was not causing it, apparently a small starting time unit modification mod I had installed was conflicting with starting a new game in xpiratez as of the latest OXCE. It was totally random, but whatever, I have deactivated that mod and it works fine.

The new versions of OXCE appear to be incompatible with K3, I can load save files just fine, but I just went to start a new game and openxcom crashed with a segmentation fault.
The precise error message was:
