Portable cover HWP

[Camalex97]

Could we get a hwp that has next to max armor (maybe not being able to protect agianst explosives and fusion launchers)  in a 1x1 kind space that would be used in base defence and fully shield soldiers in narrow base hallways?

you could probably make one yourself

I think there was some problem with tanks always occupying 4 slots in the transport craft even if they are only 1x1, but if you only want to use it for base defence... that should be possible, I guess.


...somehow, the way you describe it, I picture it as the monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey

I would but my copy of windows 7 can't run any modding programs you guys use :/

and maybe that could be the alien version (for no good reason what so ever)

for basic modding all you need is notepad, actually.

take a look at https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=Ruleset_Reference_(OpenXcom) to make yourself familiar with how the ruleset works.

then, simply take the "Xcom1Ruleset.rul" from your data\ruleset folder, make a copy, rename that copy to whatever you want to call your mod ruleset, open it, delete everything you don't need, and change the stuff you need

if you want to make your life easier, use "notepad++" and set "language" to "yaml".
