So...What does the CE actually DO...
Hi guys,
After taking a quick look at this on the Steam Workshop, I'm searching for a decent overall feature list. Obviously the mod has undergone extensive developmens and releases, but is there such a list trying to capture the most significant additions/improvements and, even better, some screenshots showing UI improvements etc?

The mod could do with selling itself a little better - It seems there's a lot of assumed knowledge expected. As a newcomer to Xenonauts mods, I know that apparently it's good, but I'd like a better idea what I'm signing up for it before I check it out.

It add things to the game. I don't know all that it adds, but one of the most immediate and helpful changes is that you can so the cover values of the surroundings when you mouseover a tile

For some reason in my Steam OS (normal or big picture mode) when I click on Change Notes for any workshop mod it doesn't actually display anything, so I have no idea what this mod does either!

So, it is useless mod who doesn't do anything and just adds bugs. Skip and look for something more useful.

I don't know what's wrong with this dude but this is an excellent community-managed mod for the game that provides stability, quality-of-life improvements, balance improvements and new content.

So, what this mod does? It fails to provide any documentation, so how I should judge it?


Btw: Front page seems to be edited and improved from a state which it was when this thread or my post was made.

I'm with OP, this mod doesn't tell me anything. What is it? what does it add? Can I get a comprehensive list of additions and improvements please? It just tells me it adds "stuff" Why is this top rated?

+1. I lost a soldier because I had no idea it would make the "block teleporters" tactic lethal...

I will admit that this mod really oughta just document the changelogs into a single list, so people who want to know what it does don't have to read through multiple pages on the forum.

This answers all your questions, guys! I don't know why llunak
didn't just include info from here when the mod was uploaded to Steam.

If you install the Community Edition, via the beta participation, you can read all the features and patch updates on the main menu.

The point is more that it needs to be 'marketed' better to even get people to install it in the first place.

I don't disagree. I'm just letting know where you can read about the features.

I'm not going to install it without understanding what it actually does though. It would be a simple way for the devs to get even more popular.

Taken from here:[www.goldhawkinteractive.com]
  • Better performance for game loading and most gameplay.
  • Significantly faster alien turns, even on large maps.
  • Better base management screens with, for instance, mousewheel support, sorting by columns, etc.
  • A smoother soldier equipment experience, for example, soldiers in the sick bay remembering their equipment.
  • Many more hotkeys that can be used for various actions in the game.
  • A memorial screen: your Barracks can now also show the list of soldiers who have fallen in the battle against alien scum. Information about their service and last mission lets you better remember their Earth-saving efforts.
  • Improved mod support + bunch of included mods, like map packs that improve the variety of mission maps.

Now, why they don't put that stuff in the mod description, I don't know. They just give a link to their forum, where this info is from.

For some reason, goldhawk community forum doesn't load for me. Everything points there, and for me it's dead. are other people having trouble, or is do I need to change the server my PC gets web addresses from?
