Should work since I didn't touch anything other than powering up the Injectrod (still not sold on the name, maybe cybermite is better) melee damage.

Cybermite.

BTW, very nice artwork.

Paint by hand. I have a 2D mind.

Cybermite.

Cybermite it is then!

And thanks both for the praise.

You should find a cool name for this mod. Name it like it was an expansion. Too bad "Enem Within" is already taken :p. You should also tweet Julian Gollop to see what he thinks of this mod.

The FBI? Pfffft. They don't even know X-com exists.
Although Mulder heard something somewhere once. He told Scully, but she was not impressed.

Sadly, MOTW episodes were the norm.

O_O

Do want.

More on topic: I modified your ruleset by adding listOrder, so the Waspites and Cybermites appear in correct places now. Ruleset attached.

It is. I had hoped that a 2x2 unit would spawn 4 units upon death (one per tile occupied by the unit), but this "useful glitch" isn't there. :P

But I'll finish this mod first. Bigobs, bigobs!

Thanks. Will upload with new version once the bigobs are ready (not today*).

Actually, I'll also make listOrders for research, ufopaedia and other stuff; for now it only covers items.

So I've uploaded new versions.

cover alien is done, bigobs are finally in and everything should work properly.

men in black..
I've removed the special missions because I just can't make them work:
- still couldn't get any ufo spawning fixed on ground.
- MiB base mission second (underground) stage crashes the game.
- the MiB terror mission without the possibility to lock it to the urban terrain*, didn't make sense to me (can't have civilians strolling around in desert/the poles/jungle).
I just want to go back at drawing sprites, multiworm & company are calling me; so I'll wait for someone else to solve these things and then I'll copypaste his ruleset. Sorry.

* this was a known fact though; I tried making a new geoscape urban terrain with space for ufo landing hoping for some kind of miracle, which didn't happen.
