- Plasma Rifle available  after Researching Laser Rifle + old requirements
- Heavy Plasma available after Researching Heavy Laser + capturing live alien :) - like in the new XCOM + old requirements
- Power Suit available after researching Muton Corpse + old requirements
- Flying Suit available after researching Floater Corpse + old requirements
- Hovertank available after researching Cyberdisk Corpse + old requirements
- Unable to produce Alien Alloys
- Unable to produce plasma clip and blaster bomb - you need to recover from Aliens :)

Hope you make Kevlar, new interceptor and any new stuff you add modular, to be able to play with them :)

Any update on the mod?  Interested in a number of your changes/additions.

Just wondering, this thread kind of has 2 different versions of your mod changes.  First post says that Heavy Plasma won't be available to research until Heavy Laser is researched.  However, the 2nd post indicates lesser versions of plasma weapons is also required.  I'm assuming 2nd post is most recent changes and IMO, is how it should be.

As to producing items that require alien corpses ... is it only required that you research the alien corpse, or are they needed in inventory and used up like new Xcom?

Looking forward to mod.  Thanks for sharing.

Research  req changes:
- plasma pistol req heavy laser rechnology
Why would the progress of lasers be required for plasma research?

fundamentals of particle wave technology.
you wouldn't try to reverse engineer a quantum entanglement device without first learning about quantum physics.

You would have learnt the fundamentals from any of the laser tech, no?

i'd still argue that the science behind plasma technology would be far easier to understand given a solid grasp of particle wave physics, perhaps it should merely be a "bonus" of sorts, that makes the research take a NORMAL amount of time instead of an insanely long one. (and conversely, making laser research much easier when plasma technology is fully understood.)

Is that a feature you could add to the engine? Research Time % bonuses

You could on plasma weapons have a bonus for a live "engineer" or "technician" (can't remember what they're called) as well as a bonus for laser research :D

Aaaannnddd... You could do something like 2% per laser weapon researched, so something neat like:

Plasma Pistol:
  - Research Time: 120 man hours
  - Research Bonuses:
     - Laser Technology: 5%
     - Laser Pistol: 2%
     - Laser Rifle: 2%
     - Heavy Laser: 2%
     - Live Engineer: 8%

:D

Sorry, might be derailing this thread a little, I'll stop now

It'd probably be relatively simple for anyone with a basic level of C++ knowledge to add this feature. :)
