Help / AI unit immune to zombification?

« on: Today at 12:16:08 am »

Are AI units (~~both civilian and~~ hostile) hardcoded immune to zombification?
Tried to I explicitly define

zombiImmune: false, but still immune.
What am I missing?
Thanks

edit: hostile only. civilian are zombified as expected

Help / Re: globe areas ?

« on: April 18, 2024, 12:09:46 am »

Thanks!
What misled me is that areas can be outside the region, example exit zone (zone 5) for a region has areas all over the globe. But it makes sense now.

Help / globe areas ?

What are the areas marked in the screenshot?
regions are clear.
zones are also clear.
but areas I don't understand: where are they defined? how are they used?

The tall grass affects movement cost. It is an object-type MCD on top of the floor MCD: the movement cost of the two MCDs stacks (I dare to say that's how it works), meaning higher movement cost on those tiles.
I think the pathfinding is zigzaging to avoid the tall grass to optimize movement cost.

So the pathfinding should be tested on a map with a "pure" floor made of one single MCD (floor-type tiles can have different costs too).

Help / accuracy % on fire cursor

« on: April 09, 2024, 10:47:55 pm »

In my mod I use UFOExtender accuracy because I want to display the accuracy % on fire cursor.
It removes the need to reopen the shooting menu to check current accuracy.
Is helps the player understand when trying to shoot a out-of-LoS target (accuracy is halved).

However I'm not interested in the actual features of UFOExtender accuracy (range-based accuracy and all that).
As a result, I have to set to all firearms:

Code: [Select]

aimRange: 999
snapRange: 999
autoRange: 999

It is absolutely not a big deal! (in fact, I'm already doing it), but I wonder if there is a simpler way to activate the % on firing cursor.

OXCE Suggestions DONE / Re: [WIP] [Suggestion] Earth-based alien operations

« on: April 09, 2024, 10:31:20 pm »

So, I have added some new attributes to alien mission ruleset.
The main attribute is "operationType", which says if it is an Earth-based operation or not.

Possible values:

- 3 = AMOT_REGION_NEW_BASE_IF_NECESSARY = use an existing alien base in the mission region, if there is none, create a new one
- 5 = AMOT_EARTH_NEW_BASE_IF_NECESSARY = use any existing alien base, regardless of region, if there is none, create a new one (in the mission region)
- 6 = AMOT_EXISTING_BASE_HUNT_MISSION = don't do anything = use the already assigned base that spawned this mission

Doubt:
Do these work only for alienMissions created from genMission, or also for alienMissions created by missionScripts?

edit: I guess this is a dumb question, values 3 and 5 must work with missionScripts otherwise it would make no sense.
