The "Maps From The Deep" map pack's first release is now available on the forum 'HERE'.


In this map pack there are new alien crafts assigned to each mission set.

I could be wrong about this but I seem to remember that alien craft don't land during the following missions:
. STR_ALIEN_SURFACE_ATTACK
. STR_ALIEN_SHIP_ATTACK
. STR_ALIEN_RETALIATION

If that is the case it is unlikely a player will get to run some of the new maps without exploded engines from them being shot down.

My plan to offset this is to create new mission sets using those alien craft that would otherwise be exclusively spawned only by the above mission sets and to have these missions have a high chance of landing the craft.

How do I go about this and is it necessary or am I mistaken and those craft in the above missions will be landing periodically without changing anything?

To make ufo land, you need to redact ufotrajectories.rul

Thank you, I'll start experimenting with UFO Trajectories.
