FAQ / How does looting work?
« on: March 22, 2015, 10:46:00 am »
Hello,

I'm playing v2.6 and I've noticed an odd thing about loot from aliens. When I win a mission I always get the alien corpses and armor, but not the alien weapons. To get the weapons I must personally collect them during battle. However, I've noticed that on missions where the loot-collecting soldiers were killed the items that they've picked up were still taken to the base (which particularly odd since those soldiers' personal armor was not returned to storage).

So how does looting work? Can I go about picking up alien weapons, immediately drop that weapon on the ground and take a different one and it'll still count as looted? Or do the soldiers have to carry it all? And why can't successful missions be auto-looted completely?
