Tip for New Comers: M16 & Scope Attachment [REBELS]

[Kinetic Bullet]

Last night I was struggling attaching the Reflex 4 to the M16. I had researched the M16 but bought the Reflex off the world market. Well darn it, you can't attach the scope before researching it first. Once researched, you need to change the sight setting in the Manufacturing Adaptations to accept the Reflex as the M16 scope. Then in the Squad Editor, make sure you select M16, and the Reflex 4 as the rifle attachment mod.

Shoutout to the wonderful peers at the discord server for trying to help me out at 1AM LOL.
Thanks...

So that means before you research the addon you cannot add it on you weapon even if you already got some from market?

You just need to attach it to the weapon in the "squad editor".
In the video below, neither the sight nor the weapon is explored (the sight was bought on the world market):

Now try that with the Rebel forces, M16 and Reflex 4 using the following criteria:

1. M16 was researched
2. Reflex 4 was not researched
3. Reflex 4 was bought off the market
4. Reflex 4 was assigned as attachment mod in the Squad Editor
5. I have militia clothes
6. Creating standard squad did not equip the m16 with the reflex 4.

Once Reflex 4 was researched, then the m16 was equipped with Reflex 4 when creating standard squad.

I spent at least an hour between talking to people on Discord for help and, trying different things in the game, changing settings, deleting/re-creating battalions/squads.

Now, there may be a bug that prevented me from doing so. I posted a photo of an issue I encountered in the Squad Editor in the discord server under Bugs. I had 3 photos of the militia personnel in the Squad Editor. I restarted the game and that fixed the issue. So I don't know if that what caused the issue!!
