JimsonWeed Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 Hello everyone, I'm trying to find how to change the missions objectives in the game. Typically, I'd like to change some missions so that the "kill every enemy" would become "extract all xcom soldiers". I've browsed the .ini files, especially the XComMissions and DefaultMissions ones, and even though I've found stuff about objectives, I'm not quite sure of what I read. For instance, what is the "sweep" objective ? There also are some booleans like IsTacticalObjective, IsStrategyObjective and IsTriadObjective, and I don't know what they do. Can anyone explain what they mean ? I have basically no tech background and I've never modded a game in my life, so all this is pretty new to me. Cheers :)
davidlallen Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 This may be tough going for a first mod attempt. I don't think the community has gotten to picking apart these files yet. I encourage you to study them and see what you can figure out, and let us know.
JimsonWeed Posted February 23, 2016 Author Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Okay, I'll make some experiments. I just tried to remove this "sweep" objective, as my main theory was that it was the one meaning "kill everyone". It had absolutely no impact on the game. I only changed the defaultmissions.ini though. Maybe I should change the other one. Or both. And thanks for your answer. Edited February 23, 2016 by JimsonWeed
lamaros Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 You'll need to look at the missions files in the unreal engine tools, that's where you change things like turn timers. I've not looked much, but I expect that's where this will be.
JimsonWeed Posted February 27, 2016 Author Posted February 27, 2016 Mmh.. okay, I didn't know you could do that. I'll take a look. But that look waaaay harder than I expected it to be... Thnaks !
