2.2 Release: Dead Civilians count?

<< < (4/10) > >>

Hi!

I like the idea, but there's a little problem with it. I ran into this yesterday. There are missions I can't attend to, because it's outside of the operational range of my craft (not enough fuel to go there and then back). If six or seven civilians die every second day, I reach the limit very quickly, even before I could build a new base with a hangar...
There should be some solution for transporting soldiers without the use of plans, it's irreal that all the planet supports me but I can't travel to othersides of the Earth...

There is a solution for this. You can attach fuel pods to your dropship in the equip menu under "items". I was able to reach any mission so far with these and they are installed within 1 or 2 hours of game time.

Works in most cases. My last game, though, I couldn't reach Wellington from Europe, because it was simply too far away. Result: Lost game. Too many civ deaths.

Same here. I installed a fuel pod on my dropship on the very beginning; this wasn't enough.

Winter:
Clearly the range of the dropship needs to be increased, it should be able to make it to any spot on the world if given a fuel pod or two.

Winter
