So what's the dark event? and what the sitrep code for it?

What's the Dark Event? I don't see it described in the description.

Can you add this mod in the middle of your playthrough? :D

@Dark unit: From the other mod's description:

Q) Do I need the other Bio mods to use this?
A) No, this is an all in one mod and if using this mod, you'll need to unsub to any of the other 4 Bio mods and clean your config before starting a new game.

Does this work with bio division 2.0?

Hi @MrShadowCX

This bug was semi-reproducible, but I wouldn't worry about it. There is definitely some weird business going on when the network tower hack "gain control of an enemy" randomly steals a hidden faceless.

Further crashes ensued, and an actual complete lock up of the computer.

I re-verified game files and restarted the computer. It seems to work again.
MrShadow  [author] 2 Apr, 2020 @ 9:09am 
no idea on the soft lock. But yes, some Bio troops are hidden Bio Faceless. If you have mind control of the trooper and something causes the trooper to shift into a bio faceless, you will lose mind control.
GargakOfTheEast 1 Apr, 2020 @ 6:41pm 
On that same mission, I hacked a network tower and successfully got "Gain control of a random enemy on the map." The game randomly gave me a Bio Trooper (not the one I ended up suppressing).

A hostile Stun Lancer went up and smacked by stolen Bio Trooper - but what, ho! My stolen Bio Trooper was actually a Bio Faceless in disguise, and when the Bio Trooper shapeshifted into the Bio Faceless, mind control was lost.

I have no idea why that would cause a soft lock with Suppression on another enemy, but edge conditions cause weird things in computer programs.

Hi @MrShadowCX,

A soft-lock happened today, but I am not sure what caused it.

On my final move of the turn, I had my girl suppress a Bio Trooper. She just kept shooting and shooting, and the next turn never happened. I had to Alt + F4.

Is there any known lock-ups like this when suppressing Bio Troops?

Though, I just noticed now you say this mod is "not compatible with PGO", but I don't understand what the problem is. I researched Bio Viper, and the vest is in Engineering ready to build. Does PGO cause this problem?

Another thing happened though that might be responsible (another comment incoming)

does someone played them with lwotc?
HotelCharliHill 4 Mar, 2020 @ 8:25am 
Ar3e there weapons or anything i can research after these events that require a MOD? ie: acid gats from cod zombies motd heheh
Adam Jensen 007 19 Feb, 2020 @ 12:40pm 
thank you for all the work do you know if there is a mod that just increases the frequency of dark events or guirrla op missions they occur more often without adding a lot of harder enemies?
MrShadow  [author] 9 Aug, 2019 @ 3:51pm 
all 4 of the older bio mods, Bio Troops, Bio Events, Bio Beasts and Bio Command are all in Bio 2.0
MrShadow  [author] 9 Aug, 2019 @ 3:50pm 
yes
Star¤Dagger 9 Aug, 2019 @ 3:02pm 
Is this already in BioDivision 2.0?

Thanks so much for this, I wouldn't dare start a campaign without it.

@zxc2008
正想说汉化一下这个mod自用 就看到您的留言 谢谢啦~(是否作者也包含在里面了)

@MrShadowCX
I updated the Simplified Chinese language.
silverleaf1 27 Sep, 2018 @ 12:26pm 
Just for your information. I had the Biozerker event occur twice in the same game. I countered it both times. I have quite a few mods that add events and missions so I don't know what may have caused it to happen twice.
MrShadow  [author] 10 Sep, 2018 @ 5:05pm 
well like any sitrep, there is alwasy a chance they may not alwasy spawn. Its all RNG and luck
ryousanko 10 Sep, 2018 @ 5:02pm 
Not trolling, I swear. Im on the last legs of my campign I have yet to see any Bio Event
MrShadow  [author] 10 Sep, 2018 @ 4:59pm 
ok i hope your not trolling me here lol. I JUST had a bio event spawn in my game.
ryousanko 10 Sep, 2018 @ 4:44pm 
Im sad to report that , for soemr eason, the Bio Events are not triggering
MrShadow  [author] 25 Jun, 2018 @ 4:12pm 
Sorry not going to happen any time soon.
silverleaf1 25 Jun, 2018 @ 2:27pm 
I'd like to see support for the mod config menu to enable or disable which sitreps are desired.
Deadput 14 Apr, 2018 @ 7:39am 
Would be an interesting idea though.

I'm good with the way the mods are though.
MrShadow  [author] 14 Apr, 2018 @ 7:36am 
No, not with the way the mods are set up.
Chaon 13 Apr, 2018 @ 9:24pm 
Hey, is it at all possible to have bio enemies only show up in the sitrep/dark event and not in normal gameplay? Any help is much appreciated.
Seraphim Sword 11 Apr, 2018 @ 5:05pm 
Thats just a regular glitch from the devs, eggy. I had that happen a few times when I first started playing WOTC vanilla.
MrShadow  [author] 2 Apr, 2018 @ 5:51pm 
nope not from this mod. This mod does not add any new maps. Sounds like a map from a map pack
Eggy 2 Apr, 2018 @ 2:16pm 
Is anyone else having a problem with the start zone? I had a bio device defense mission on a very small map that I assume this mod added as ive never seen it before. All my guys occupied 1 square at the start and there were enemy units visible straight away.
Lani 11 Feb, 2018 @ 9:00am 
Thank you, will do
Matikanefukukitaru 11 Feb, 2018 @ 7:59am 
@Lani: Yes, the update still wasn't released for Mac, afaik...go and complain to Firaxis/2K, they really deserve to be spammed on that, since either it should be not supporting it all or supporting it properly.
Lani 11 Feb, 2018 @ 3:46am 
im playing on a Mac, so maybe the update was just for Mac OS? Thanks for answering. I will just have to play without it for now.
MrShadow  [author] 10 Feb, 2018 @ 10:12pm 
@Lani Last update for WOTC was back in Dec. If your game still isnt working right, its a game issue, not a mod issue. Others are not having this issue and it working fine for me. I just did a sitrep from this mod a few hours ago. Unless there is a new update i messed in the past few days, not sure what else to tell you bud. Sorry.
Lani 10 Feb, 2018 @ 8:40pm 
The game just crashes unless I turn it off. It happened as soon as the update finished and I tried to run it.
MrShadow  [author] 5 Feb, 2018 @ 5:44pm 
yes please, need more info.
ObelixDk  [author] 5 Feb, 2018 @ 5:37pm 
Works fine for me.. Can you give a bit more details of what's happening?
Lani 5 Feb, 2018 @ 5:26pm 
After last WOTC update, the Mod will not work. Or game wont work with Mod on
ObelixDk  [author] 19 Jan, 2018 @ 4:38pm 
Yeah... That's the reason.. What he said.. Sounded better than my explanation ;)
Matikanefukukitaru 19 Jan, 2018 @ 6:00am 
@ObelixDk: Well, the use of that could also possibly be explained by the aliens wanting to use it to immidate(that written correctly? ^^") XCom, who would presumably know that sign. Just a random thought. ;x
ObelixDk  [author] 19 Jan, 2018 @ 5:53am 
:)
CigO_SmokeO_DoggO 19 Jan, 2018 @ 3:05am 
@ObelixDk yea fair enough :) i like it
ObelixDk  [author] 19 Jan, 2018 @ 2:38am 
I put it there because I thought it looked cool.. It's a freaking alien berserker.. Didn't care about realism ;)
CigO_SmokeO_DoggO 18 Jan, 2018 @ 10:02pm 
@shadow79 dont get me wrong this, is a great mod and i appreciate the work but i mean human biohazard-sign on the zerk, green and on the head, its the Biological hazards sign humans use as warning but the alien invaders dont show themseleves and only as advent so i was curious as to why aliens use the human Biohazards sign thingy. idk im just being a picky jerk i guess.

Would love an additional Bio Dark Event along the lines of:

Bio Strength Boost (or something along those lines) that increases the overall strength of all Bio enemies on the map by a certain percentage (based on difficulty) with all enemies getting more offense, aim, will, and possibly extra action points at random
4rrakis 15 Jan, 2018 @ 11:02pm 
Nice!
MrShadow  [author] 15 Jan, 2018 @ 11:01pm 
both already in the works or being thought about
4rrakis 15 Jan, 2018 @ 10:58pm 
How about a dark event that gives Rad ammo from your Bio Beasts mod to all Bio soldiers?
Haybusa 15 Jan, 2018 @ 9:53pm 
If I can make a suggestion to make a alien type called Cryo Squad that will use frost grenades and freezing lash as an example (you guys are super creative but I always felt being frozen can add depth to how people play Xcom 2).

P.s. If there was a proper place to make appropriate suggestions I apologize in advance!
