Hi,
I'm new here.
First of all my english in writing isn't very good.

I think it would be great if there were some missions like
"We found a old military base so go on check that"
So you can find some weapons oder new/old technologie.

Or a base which is an sattelite control center, with this you can make ir pictures of figthing areas, or stuff like that.

What do you mean?
Possible to implement?

not bad and same time not good idea.... Like when u have a mission go check that military base .... WHY??? what is the point of it??? get new/old thec? why you have allready enough *new*tech and there is nothing to do with old tech.
But yes it could be a money boosting mission, like we have dangerous virius inside of that base. we hoped aliens won't find the base. Most prob. they have no found the "jar,vial wathever" the virus was in your object is to
get the virus/destroy the virus/secure the base/ destroy the base. Depends what u choose the more money u get ... Enough good idea?

thats no big deal to implement this (all done by scriptfiles) - just start the mapping editor and create a map - tell us the story for the map and maybe include it in campaign (see http://ufo.myexp.de/wiki/index.php/UFO-Scripts/campaign.ufo for more stuff)

there are also some mapping tutorials around: http://ufo.myexp.de/wiki/index.php/Contribute

I get the code via SVN, but I got some compile errors, but that I'll post in another threat, if I don't know how to go on.

Sounds nice, "secret military base" or "military base of unknown origin" might be even better.

About finding weapons --- great, even a specimen of a weapon that is not yet researched. But I object to finding new technologies --- that just breaks you brilliant research plan; I don't like such crucial things to be random in strategic games.
