A official mod for tftd mixed crew behavior
« on: October 20, 2015, 01:53:55 pm »
Considering that fact that opentftd exists and is there are various elements from it in UFO as mods,i wondered why not have a mod that makes mixed crews be completely random like tftd,we could have etherials with mutons or sectopods with cyberdisks

Yes, we could.

Actually, Hobbes did it already. I did it in the FMP too, to a lesser degree.

Check my UFO Redux expansion. There's about 200 different crews that you can encounter, mixing the vanilla aliens with the Gazer, Phaser and Overlord aliens.

I used to have a mod that would mix just the vanilla aliens but it got incorporated into Redux.

I've done something like this, aliens appear in mixed crews after few months (around September IIRC).
