Secret Alien Base - unable to progress to last area
I find that I cannot send my soldiers through the doorway that leads to the large room with the alien commander. There is a chyrsalid corpse just in front of the entry way, and no way around it. I've tried explosives to widen the doorway but it failed. I only found a few suggestions to resolve the issue which did not help. Since I am playing with Ironman enabled I cannot reload a save, and if I abort the mission I will lose my best soldiers.

Please help. Is there possibly a console command that can place my soldiers at a certain point or finish the mission?

i m a noob so maybe what i will say makes no sense
but

i just did that mission last night and i dont think you are looking for the right entrance way

corpses do not block access, if you cant enter thats because it s not "enterable"
at the end of the base, you have to go up, there are ramps to an elevated part of the complex.
go up, it should activate the sectoid commander in the last room that is below your platform

the way to get access to the last ennemy is simply to jump off from the platform

Go back and look around you missed someone and the script won't move forward until you find them. It is annoying as all heck. Mine was back hugging the left side toward the entrance the one time it happened to me.

There is no Scripting in Alien Base Asault, u coud rush right to the Commander without killing anything else (If the enemys woud let u) .
There are different Layouts for the Alien base, not just one, and the Sec Commander will get Triggered like any other Alien, u just must see him.
The Problem sounds like a Bug from Multiplayer, where u order a Unit to move to a Point, the Unit denys the Order and the choosen Point is Blocked for u completly. But this never happend in Single Player to me.
I can be wrong (i never botched Alien Base) but wasnt that Mission repeatable when u loose it in Ironman?
Thanks for the replies. I back tracked and searched every inch for any enemies that I might have missed but did not find any. I could actually pass through the door before the chrysalid attacked, but instead of passing through I ordered all my troops to overwatched. The door became inaccessible when I killed a chrysalid between my troops at the doorway. I'll just start a new game.

You may have damaged the doorway making in inpassable, if you have any rockets/grenades left, save, launch them at it, and see if you can move through

Oh sorry lol wasted your time. I was thinking of the final mission. I have demonstrated the internet is full of it!
