This is really minor, but the live bombardier beetle cannot be made into energetic blood plasma.  I assume that because normal beetles have blood plasma the bombardier beetles should also have plasma.

Indeed you're right. I fixed this omission a few days ago.

Minor complaint: every time a cross drops, it isn't salvaged. So I will never be able to have my army of battle clerics.

I am not sure if you cannot retrieve them manually though so there's still chance to realize the dream I think, though it would be nice if those things would have low-level anti-ghost attack to make your battle priests more fitting.

Complain all you want, either you're a man of God or you serve the Man. :)
But you can use it temporarily if a priest falls and you vouch to complete his mission. Then you get a short-term blessing until the battle ends.

or the priest is suddenly controlled by a higher power, for the turn... ;)

Or subdued for the glory of the war on aliens.

Time to make a overhaul submod of XCF so you play as a rogue civilian organization that works in the shadows and tries to help XCom from the shadows, maybe tie in with mister "Smiles" even?

I am really unsure about references, but if you'd be able to make it semi-realistic and a bit more serious, without too much handwaving, I'd certainly play it eagerly, especially since it sounds like early game X-Com Files where you are practically just a civilian organisation with just a couple of field agents driving around countryside and uncovering paranormal mysteries, slowly building into something bigger - and that's the most interesting part of the current mod.

At the end of January 1999, four countries simultaneously signed an alien pact! :o This is normal? It is also interesting whether there is a limit on the number of countries that have signed a pact with aliens, or eventually all countries can exit the X-Com project?

Yes, it means you're really bad at dealing with the cults. ;D

Yes, they can all leave the project. And it will not mean game over, if you can sustain yourself.

Zombie Boomer Corpse is not researchable.

Yeah I know they're supposed to go boom... But they don't if you use a melee weapon.

They can be researched, you're probably missing the prerequisite.

Hello Solarius, annoyed again with a problem at the end of the month. Attached game saved.
Also, I have a question regarding dart weaponry. Isn't the production time for both rifle, pistol and ammunition too much, if we compare it with other elements that seem to require more technology?
I congratulate you again for the mod, it is for me without a doubt the best xcom game I have ever played.

Why do you have regions STR_ANTARCTICA and STR_NORTH_PACIFIC? They're not in the mod nor vanilla. Delete them from your save (they're in several places).

Also, I have a question regarding dart weaponry. Isn't the production time for both rifle, pistol and ammunition too much, if we compare it with other elements that seem to require more technology?

Players need to something to complain about :)

Thanks! 8)
