[Answered] Examination room - recoverable?
« on: November 25, 2022, 08:33:09 am »
Pardon if this was already answered. Didn't find anything about it.

In vanilla examination room was not recoverable. It was converted to some other item. So never appeared in store and never can be researched. Is this fixed in OpenXcom or extended?

Examination room was recoverable in vanilla, proof: https://youtu.be/AFd1oR-wOdw?t=2351

It could also be researched in vanilla, proof: https://youtu.be/qeJOzbu0ins?t=538

And it is still the same in OpenXcom, and OXCE.

Thank you for clarifying.

Apparently the info about its inrecoverability is incorrect then.

This page claims it can be found on Hunter (Abductor) but it also lists it as zero in the recoverable items table. Strange.

I looked, and it seems that the bug (with TFTD Examination rooms) is still present in OXC, since it takes its data from the original MCDs. I'm not aware of a patch that fixes these, but I haven't really looked, either.

In any case, it's really easy to fix it for yourself by using 'MCDPatches'.
