Maybe found cause for Pacific area alien base stacking...
« on: November 07, 2014, 04:38:13 pm »
Sometimes there are multiple alien bases close to each other in nations of the pacific are (e.g. 4 alien bases around one city in indonesia) and I think I might have found the reason for that:

The Alien Bases weight for that are is rather high (27) in the openXcom ruleset, combine that with little land and much water and tada, there is the glitch.

I lowered the number down to 10 in my current campaign and so far no problems.

take a look at the missionzones-4 areas
iirc the alienbases are located in these areas and southeast asia has 4 (in indonesia, philipines, china, japan) with 3 of the 4 areas very small
getting 4 alienbases in the same region instead of a more equal distributution in the 4 regions could be bad luck or sign for a buggy selection code?
who want to test/read code?
