AxlDave Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Is it possible to change the order in which your soldiers appear in the barracks? I want to have my ideal line-up at the top, and all other soldiers grouped by class, then rank. Is it possible to do this, and if so, how? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubiousintent Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 To the best of my knowledge, not without a mod and I don't recall one for EU except possibly for "Long War" (Remember Squads for Long War). Doesn't mean there isn't one. My memory isn't what it used to be. As I recall the barracks lineup appears in the order in which they are "hired". However, I seem to also recall that by default "equipped" soldiers appear at the top of the barracks list. So if you don't unequip them when they return to base they stay at the top. The exception is that wounded soldiers are automatically unequipped so their gear is available for their replacements. You might take a look at the wiki article "Strategic Display of Soldiers". While the thrust of the article is about increasing the squad size on a dropship mission, it covers the entire process to include barracks appearance and suggest this can be done. The "Long War" mod includes a "remember squad" feature. -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxlDave Posted April 11, 2016 Author Share Posted April 11, 2016 Having read through the link several times, I cannot see any mention of how to change the order of soldiers in the barracks. All it mentions is some method that will do something if you don't care about the ordering. So, as far as I can tell from the game, the barracks arranges soldiers according to these factors: Rank, Mission No, Kill No, in that order. All I really want to do is edit / add to this list so that "Class" is at the top. Is this at all possible? Does this list exist somewhere easily accessible?

dubiousintent Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I'm afraid not. That is the only article (and the linked "R&D" thread) where anything approaching the subject is mentioned. The people who would know are part of the "Long War" team. You might ask in that mod's forum thread or PM Amineri directly. -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
