Happy New Beer!

I just acquired a Fortuna, crew capacity 13. Party event: max size 13. Can't use Fortuna. Sad face. Hanger space is a premium. Maybe make Fortuna a valid option?

Additional request: Can we give cat girls the purr ability?
Fortuna goes literally everywhere else other than partys and infiltrations, it's one of the best uses of hangar space in the game.

And if Fortuna could do the rest I would only need one hanger. I will say that I'm happy it can do space. Shame the others don't. It would be interesting if the ship was a multi phase project with features you would procedurally unlock. I imagine my idea would be a massive headache to implement.

Somewhat unrelated. Feeling a little crazy. Playing with the idea of modding xcom myself. Lets assume I go through successfully:
Phase 1: pedia fluff. Lokk'narr holidays like double-cross mass and new beer.
Phase 2: Related global map interrupts that do things to player.
Phase 3: Add items. Miko dress and kit. Voodoo related.
Phase 4: Make my battle barge sequence myself

Thoughts?

Not really. Just define multiple fortunas, with research and construction project for each. Each new iteration consumes previous fortuna as manufacturing component.


Can anyone tell me the source for dtpdance.ogg? It plays on "seducing your ffb"

The headache I imagine is less about specific implementation and more about things like balance and fitting.

That could be nice if that might be a mandatory passage to get the codex exclusive vessel. Also since "the russian files" item is loot for the mission "siberia base investigation", could such mission spawn a bit more often? In more of a dozen of runs i got it on the map only two times, each one in a separate campaign so hell....also the "advanced helicopter plans" should be mire common, i mean it's old technology...

the siberia mission is guaranteed to spawn every month after it has been unlocked

Does the Craft Weapon research give a free Piratin' Cannon? You get the Bootypedia entry for it when you research it, but I haven't found a way to buy/manufacture them. In general I haven't been able to find any craft weapons, so all that tasty air traffic and its booty is beyond my capabilities.

The piratin cannon is just an assault cannon mounted as a craft weapon. The description says as much, but its a common thing to miss.
