Bugs, crashes, typos & bad taste

Is the Black Sphere item currently spawning on any maps?

Yes, in one specific mission.

I have a 'Haunted farm' mission in Antarctica.
Kinda empty, like we can expect for anything in Antarctica.

But, a farm ? 

Interesting... And funny.
Fixed.

Here's an example of the spot. I have a save if you need it.

Thank you!
Now that I see what it's about, I'm 95% sure I fixed it a couple weeks ago.

Looks like it. Maybe it could use a failsafe (like the Tiny Drill finally got). Or maybe it's just something you live with, not everything needs to be accessible in one playthrough.

I'll think about it.

Two rows of "points" in some research and no "cost"

During my first playthrough I happened to have Improved Laboratory research done. I checked it in Ufopaedia and noticed I need 200 Tritanium for the building, so I started to look for some stray pile of Tritanium in one of my bases... then to look for a way to buy it, then to build it, then to loot it and finally to research it. After a few real time days spent in vain attempts to get me some Tritanium at one point I randomly fiddled with facilities building menu and suddenly noticed that in this menu Imp.Lab. doesn't actually require Tritanium at all! A tiny description mistake on it's own, I think it still deserves to be fixed to save some unlucky new player from a bit of frustration.

Er, what?

[Creepin]

Er, what?

It looks like you've missed that my issue was with Ufopedia entry, not Build Facilities menu, as I've explicitly mentioned. Please clarify though if I've got your post wrong, it's not very explainy on itself, you know

[Creepin]

BTW, shouldn't Heartthrob's name be capitalised akin to everything else in game?

You're aware that Tritanium is the Alien Alloy in this mod, right?

Ah, I missed it during integration... Thank you.

Sorry, I don't get you either. the cost is 200 Tritanium, the description also says 200 Tritanium, what's the issue?

WTF is this item? It's certainly not from XCF...

You can get armor from researching mib shock, but there's no adaptation manufacturing after researching. Why tho?

I believe I waited for this as well and the key dependent needed was the Intel lab.

You're right, it should be  thing. I just added this.

If you don't want to wait on the next release, you can update the mod from https://github.com/SolariusScorch/XComFiles/archive/refs/heads/master.zip (just replace the mod folder, nothing else is required).

Pls change the art for "Senior" and "Infiltrator" comendations. (it's "bad taste")

I'm not sure of the art your speaking about. Can you post screenshots ?

But when referring to "art"...
I always looked at the totality of this game as a piece of art and sometimes art has things that may offend you. It's a fantasy world and not done intentionally.
One may look at certain characters and think "That's sexists", etc.
I simply see art. I see the hard work it has taken to create the game.

That's just my opinion anyway.

Just launch the game and look at these Ufopedia articles. And most Ufopeadia art is equally tacky, silly or borderline NSFW.

If you're worried about the game you're playing at work being 'not safe', well, that says more about you and your job than the game.

Otherwise, while commendations and dossiers do tend to have a higher proportion of art with a disputable pedigree, I don't think the above is true for the actual tech articles, bio reports, equipment and so on, which are actually the vast, vast majority of the Pedia.

Now, this is not an entirely new complaint and the other Helmet_Hair had a little submod to alleviate some of the issues. I've been using some of those images for a long while now, to the point that they're the 'default' for me and vanilla versions look strange.
