[WIP][OXCE][UFO] X-Com: Terror From the Unknown (TFTU)

[ohartenstein23]

And if you want something more heavy-handed like forced medical leave after missions, that can be done already by the script hooks that run on returning from a battlescape mission.

[Ethereal]

Very pity.
I did not want to implement mana ... but apparently have to.

Update.

- Updated script for energy shields.
- New item - Personal shield generator.
- Some terrorists and alien sword got vampiric attack.
***When updating, the old "Ruleset" folder in the modification must be deleted. Or deleted "armorWithEnergyShields.rul".***

Many thanks to comrade Meridian for posting videos of passing games on his YouTube channel. Thanks to his videos about XPiratez, I learned about an improved script for energy shields.
Separate respect for videos on Heroes of Might and Magic. I love this series of games.
And of course thank you Yankes for great scripts.

A couple of musical options for the main modification.

[Ethereal]

Update.
- Removed maps not related to the rendering of the original UFO and TFTD.
- Reduced weapon accuracy.
- Added PORTCARGOSHIP, PORTLINERSHIP, RAILYARDURBAN, FORESTMOUNT, POLARMOUNT, DESERTMOUNT, POLARDESERT cards.
- New ship from the SKYLANDER series with increased capacity.
- Improved UCITY script. Now the building is not so dense.
- rebalancing and bug fixes.

I tried to experiment with the interface. It turned out terribly, but nothing else, in this regard, could not be found, so we will have to use what happened.

[Ethereal]

Corrected a little. Now at least the numbers are visible normally.

[Ethereal]

Update.
- Full transition to "fakeUnderwater", with underwater suits, missions and some animation replacement. "Vapor" doesn't work under "fakeUnderwater", but that's not for me question.
- ammunition for armored vehicles is packed in clips, which are much less needed to fully weapons charges armored vehicles.
- Disabled highlighting for new themes. Disabled display of unnecessary characteristics in the inventory.
- 4 new terrorists of varying degrees of danger.
- Rebalance. Correction of old errors and creation of new ones.

"Vapor" doesn't work under "fakeUnderwater", but that's not for me question.

Vapor works only underwater.
Fake underwater... as the name says... is not underwater.

For surface (including fake underwater) missions, you can use surface vapor.

[Ethereal]

Update.
- Fixed "vapor", now works under water (Thanks Meridian).

[Ethereal]

Update.

- The mod has been renamed. New name - X-Com: Terror From the Unknown (TFTU)
- Added a revolver and a double-barreled sawn-off shotgun.
- Various balance edits. Bug fixes.

It would be great if at least someone tested this hybrid and pointed out errors in the balance. I am not a fan of great difficulties in the game and everything suits me, but I am ready to finalize the public version of the modification for adequate requirements in terms of complexity.

[Ethereal]

Update.

- Alien Alloys are available for research after examining the Corpse of the Deep One. (Back to basics. It's more interesting.)
- Added mission with minor terror. Disappears later.
- Replaced the map for "TCF CRUISER", borrowed from XPiratez, with a more convenient one for deploying troops, of our own production.
- Bug fixes, balance edits.

[Ethereal]

Update.

- Supply station has been removed . Basic equipment is available for purchase at all bases.
- On the maps of the upper level of the "alart" Artifact there were no points for placing large alien units and, in general, there were not enough points for placing aliens. Fixed.
- Added 5 new UFOs of the TFTD class.
- Mi-24 and Archangel were replaced by ships from TFTD.
- Rebalance. Correction of old errors and creation of new ones.

Dmitry, Periodically, this error appears if does not persist for a long time. It looks like a local failure. I couldn't simulate it artificially, so I can't understand anything without a save file.

In addition, the modification was not tested on OpenXcom Extended versions higher than 7.0.
