Yes! An emergency floor escape hatch for the Ironfist would be great!

Also, I would like to see someone knowledgeable to add a stairway to the roof and a floor escape hatch to the Avenger Craft! 8)

All people's request point inevitably towards the perfect design which is my Bonaventura :)

Also, little update:

Got it to work finally. Works like a charm.

But are all the soldiers supposed to be at the doors or spread throughout the craft? They are in three lines at the doors for me.

That's how deployment works in Openxcom. I don't think I can do much about that, unless there's something I don't know.

Gander this:

Code: [Select]
    battlescapeTerrainData:
      name: LIGHTNIN
      mapDataSets:
        - BLANKS
        - LIGHTNIN
      mapBlocks:
        - name: LIGHTNIN
          width: 20
          length: 10
    deployment:
      - [10, 5, 1, 2]
      - [10, 6, 1, 2]
      - [10, 4, 1, 2]
      - [9, 7, 1, 2]
      - [9, 3, 1, 2]
      - [8, 7, 1, 2]
      - [8, 3, 1, 2]
      - [7, 7, 1, 2]
      - [7, 3, 1, 2]
      - [6, 6, 1, 2]
      - [6, 4, 1, 2]
      - [6, 5, 1, 2]

I don't know if it works, but deployment supposed to tell where the soldiers should be deployed. The numbers (first tile = 0) are: x (lef-right), y, z level (0=ground), and finally facing (0 being 1.30 o'clock, then clockwise 1.5 hr each, you need 0 for this ship).

I just realized that the ironfist is expensive as all HELL

Same cost as an Avenger (120 alloys, 3 navigation and 6 power sources) yet carries 8 less soldiers and has no weapons. While you can argue that it doesn't require UFO Construction and all those other techs for the new craft, having 100 scientists really negates that as being a problem.

I would've made it as expensive as the Lightning though, or even the Firestorm.
 
But hey, it's your mod. Just providing feedback.

Frankly I didn't pay much attention to this, since at this stage I normally have at least 30 mln dollars, so any expense is purely for fluff only. However, I'll think about this.

I shortened the ship by one tile. Please let me know if the problem persists (or new ones arise).
