A very little thing: as 0.99N9.5.6. vibro sword is required to research the homefort rifle but should't be needed the vibro blade instead? A sword is too long to inspire the gals, plus to  manufacture the rifle actually tech knife is needed..it would be time to revisit the requirements?

Re you sure you are talking about "Homefort rifle", because that one requires "Tech knife".

yes, i stated in my previous post but it is related to the vibro technology? I cannot remember

[Dioxine]

I uploaded a small but important release aimed at making early game much less annoying. Have fun!

Nope. Vibro is high tech, while tech knife only requires plastasteel. No vibro needed for homefort rifle.

Oh my god. Hyper:True on every radar is a huge step for visibility of information, now people can actually put a name to all the various radar traffick without having to cross-reference their speeds.

on 9.5.6 it was needed. Might someone confirm if in 7.7 it's still needed?

[Ultimoos]

My current game was started on 9.5.6 and I did not upgrade yet.

oh...ok

Disagree, they were fun to read.

[Delian]

Yeah, bring back those fun tips. If you're worried about stupid people believing them, then just add an extra tip that explains that those tips are actually harmful.

[Interdictor]

Cringe. Really. For a game about teenage mutant amazons cosplaying Disney cartoon pirates. Arrr.

Having few foul advises in addition to one hundred one read-or-die useful tips seemed at least unique if not fun.

[ontherun]

well acutally these might have been quite misleading, but at leadt provided some kind of humor...i'd like to see replaced with some more other lore/piratin tips anyway

[Dakkdakk]

Eh, I did think they got kinda lame after the first few times they showed up, and could maybe mislead some people who are unfamiliar with xcom mechanics, if those exist. It was also weird seeing random cyrillic in the related screenshots.

In other news, I started a new run using OXC android, anyone knows how I get gals to run instead of just walking when playing on an android device? It's the only thing I haven't been able to do yet, and it'd a feature I use a lot once my gals get more energy.

Currently deciding if I should finally try a Cinderella project run.
