spider and exo suit/armours... where are they?

[loppantorkel]

I've completed several project in Proving Ground facility, but I've never found out where to build the items.. :-/

I've built them before I had the expansion, but I don't remember how I got them. My building order in the ship was a mess from the start. I might have missed something. Think I'm still on predator suits, got colonels around and have turned it around on the global map. Just started some shadow chamber projects. Probably doing things the wrong order.

Both of those armours are still built from the proving ground.

Okay, thanks. First research, then build, same facility. Maybe make some sense. Good game, but it's still in many ways a mess to sort out.

Once you've unlocked them from research, they become availble in the Proving Grounds.

Once you've built them from the Proving Grounds, that's it. It adds them to your inventory, and you can modify your soldier's loadout to change their armor. The game lets you do the proving ground project multiple times since you may want multiple suits.

Well, it looks like I've got them all completed in Proving Grounds (says - completed projects), but they're nowhere to be found. I'm guessing I first need to research them in Proving Grounds, then build them in Proving Grounds to access them...

You can build these armours multiple times from the proving ground, as long as you have the raw materials required. The only time they should be in red 'not buildable' is when you don't have enough material.

It's the main armour types that you build once for the whole squad to be able to use, that should be shown as 'completed'.

Look in your inventory in the engineering section, if you think you have the armour built but can't find it, or make all armour available if you think it's on a particular soldier and you can't find it.

You don't research them in the Proving Ground. Once you researched Plated Armor, the EXO and Spider Suit projects becoe avaibale in the Proving Grounds. Finishing either of these projects will place one suit of that type in your inventory, and you can put it on a soldier via the Loadout screen in the Armory or at mission start. The WAR and Wrait aror work the same way, except you need to research Powered Armor to unlock them.
