They never had proper bases, only temporary "landings".

Now these landings (renamed to outposts) work differently, so it's possible there would be some weird effects on the transition.

Also, I hope to add actual permanent MiB bases over time.

Hi, currently doing the cyberweb portal mission. Fell into the portal room, the ladders out of the room do not appear to work, cant be climbed with pathing out or using the button to move units up. included a picture of the room & ladder as well as a save file of the location.

Yes indeed, they aren't working and I have issues fixing this. :(

Not all enemies are facing the craft on Superhuman

Do not sure where to ask. I expected to have 100% of enemies facing X-COM craft on first turn on Superhuman difficulty. Is that a wrong expectation?

I'm playing OpenXcom 7.5.3 with X-Files 2.3d on Superhuman. Not all enemies are facing the X-COM craft on the 1st turn in Battlescape. The save is attached.

Palms in Irkutsk, Sibe

Thanks!

Another question. It is not normal to have palms in main streets of Irkutsk in real life. But I have them in-game, when Red Dawn is apprehended there.

How do I change which file to have Siberian Red Dawn Apprehensions using maps without palms?

A save is ready, ask, if you need it.

All cities have the same globe texture, just like in vanilla. Think of it as a special biome, common to all cities.

Can it be done better? I wouldn't know for sure, probably; but even so, we'd need whole new terrains for various climates.

BTW, I've never been to Irkutsk, but palm trees can be found in some temperate cities... There's a famous one in Warsaw. :)

Ah, I see, thanks.

I do not know much about map modding, so excuse me, but is it possible to generate not only map from pieces of 10x10 tiles, but also map additions 1x1 tile in size? If this is possible then one need to change only few details to "localize" a map block. I imagine a placeholder billboard or a tree whose appearance changes based on climate zone: palm for Mediterranean versus fur tree for Siberia. Or even vans of emergency services that have changing color scheme based on country.

As for the Warsaw palm — wait, it is artificial, no? Anyway, Siberian winters are too cold for palms to survive outside a greenhouse.

Nope, must be 10x10 or multiplication thereof. :-\

Yes, it is artificial. ;D
