How does this interact with Extract Corpses?

In the LWOTC game, the prisoner was successfully interrogated, but the prisoner did not appear in the soldier library, how to solve it?

I dont know if you can make a mod for Recruiting the berserk queen or archon ruler but if you can please do

@Sephiroth a bit late but according to someone else the Pyrrhic Victories mod lets you capture generals and still win
Axios2002 31 Dec, 2023 @ 5:02pm 
Generals must die, the mission considers removal of the general from the area a failure even if it was you that captured them. I had a similar situation years ago with similar mods, so I´m afraid it´s a game thing
Sephiroth 12 Oct, 2023 @ 2:54pm 
please let this thread be alive to muster up an answer in the late 2023... will this addon allow capture of advent general?
I am in this kind on mission, cleared the map with general knocked down, because who is the most obvious choice for abduction? generals, right? now I cant apparently finish the mission successfully, because general is knocked out... thus there is no way to hurt him... (tried flamethrowers, burning hands, putting him next to dead guy with a grenate and using fuse detonation... he is not amused at all) and when I abduct him to da choppa, our central troll is like oh well, he got away.
DUUUDE, he got into OUR flything! :D :D He is right here!
I am not exactly into playing the whole mission again, so... any help here? xD

Would it be possible for you to create a submod in the future that allows users to enter the relevant stuff in config? For example we have Asari enemies and Asari soldiers so capturing them could give you an asari soldier.

Update for spectrum and purge units pls lmao
Baron of the DarkValley 7 Jan, 2023 @ 6:28am 
one issue i keep having is that the advent i capture do not get the option for me to recruit them and only gives me an option to interrogate them, do i need to do something or do i need to figure out a way to obtain troopers rather than the officers, lancers and priests i am usually able to obtain? It would be easier if the grunts weren't so fragile...

So there no video of this in action?
Risitas_Fanboi 8 Nov, 2022 @ 11:38am 
ok people I might be an idiot but I gotta ask anyways. So as far as I can tell, EXVENT Troopers cannot be promoted by gaining EXP and they have to be trained in the GTS as another EXVENT unit (an Officer or a Stun Lancer by the time Im writing this). The problem is that I cant find those classes in the training list, all I can see is regular classes such as Ranger. Converting a Stun Lancer or an Officer still works but I cant "train" Troopers to become any of those

Question is this mod compatible with "Playable XCOM 2 Aliens For LWOTC" or will it break the game
Gabriel Cooper 20 Oct, 2022 @ 5:08am 
i'm a bit confused, i can apparently recruit a purifier even though exvent doesn't have a purifier crew yet, what would happen if i completed the project?
Syrett 9 Oct, 2022 @ 3:03pm 
so i recruit ones other than troopers and such
and when project is finished they dont appear,
any known incompatibilities?
its possible its just because they're the advanced units
Zaku II (Alias WatcherZigzagoon) 13 Jul, 2022 @ 2:14pm 
So I thought it would be worth a try to enable the Shieldbearer, just to test it out. turns out it appears to still be a work in progress, and I'm utilising something not meant to be used as of yet. oops.
Syrett 6 Jun, 2022 @ 1:16pm 
very good mod
Syrett 6 Jun, 2022 @ 1:09pm 
one way to capture them on missions where you need to evacuate and cant carry is with the fulton harness mod
the fulton harness does actually let you airlift stunned advent units
JurassicIan 2 Jun, 2022 @ 7:12am 
Alright so question, is it possible to set it so that there is a chance for a unit to turn into one of a group of classes, rather than just one?
Zaku II (Alias WatcherZigzagoon) 23 May, 2022 @ 11:53am 
So apparently, I cannot load an EXVENT soldier from my character pool, which makes me sad because during my testing of various mods, I sorta grew attached to two units... whom I have saved to my character Pool.
Zaku II (Alias WatcherZigzagoon) 23 May, 2022 @ 11:51am 
@Kalel You're gonna want the Guerrilla tactics school for that
Zaku II (Alias WatcherZigzagoon) 12 May, 2022 @ 6:18pm 
I was curious as to why everyone but the stun lancer was being converted into troopers. now I may have some idea as to what the deal is now that I've read the description
JurassicIan 2 May, 2022 @ 11:32am 
Is it possible to interrogate an ADVENT unit and have them turn into a Non-skirmisher Hybrid from the mod of the same name via config edits or not?
Kalel 22 Apr, 2022 @ 1:26pm 
Hello! This is a super nice mod mate!
The only problem i have is that when I try to recruit some Advent Units the game autorecruit them and make them troopers. I would like to have some STUN LANCERS, OFFICERS...
Is that a bugg? Or they can only be troopers and then trin them into the 4 standard perks.
Thanks mate :steamhappy:

@Inaire You'd need the addons specific to either Allies Unknown Redux: Vipers or Playable Aliens. This addon is specific to Project EXVENT.
Inaire 21 Mar, 2022 @ 9:45am 
does this work for say the viper mods?
Lux Manifestus 13 Mar, 2022 @ 7:41pm 
Any interest in making for one for MOCX/EXALT?
Blitzkrieg 4 Mar, 2022 @ 12:54pm 
dont have any recruit options, got at least 1 of each ADVENT captive
marshmallow justice 3 Mar, 2022 @ 4:16am 
https://i.gyazo.com/353e5f82651ef4f337af84bc464ec45e.jpg I captured an Advent Cryo Rocketeer (Or Engineer, can't remember) to be able to test out this mod. I don't specifically have the Cryo Engineer though; just "Advent Trooper Interrogation" (with a rainbow img: picture). I imagine in order to support other mods rather than having endless schematics for different types; just boil them down into more vanilla titles - so is this working correctly?

I also do not have the project exvent/playable advent soldiers or any of those alien mods as I don't wish to use the alien characters; but I still have the button to convert here. It would simply be a CTD waiting if I tried to convert, right?
Gallum 22 Feb, 2022 @ 5:42pm 
So how does one go about turning a captive into an exvent soldier? All it lets me do is interrogate them.
RyanEX2000 23 Jan, 2022 @ 2:21pm 
Nah, main problem with Long War is that you don't get a lot of missions where you can actually get prisoners since you can't pick up unconscious Advent or Aliens. So if you want to make it worthwhile you gotta frontload units with stuns when you one such mission to maximise your chances.
Yoinkyz 23 Jan, 2022 @ 1:23pm 
also would also like to know its compatibility. have you ran into any major problems running it besides no recruits?:praisesun:
RyanEX2000 22 Jan, 2022 @ 8:33am 
I'm guessing it isn't entirely compatible with LWotC since I only get the option to interrogate and never recruit.
Mr Danger Dude  [author] 19 Jan, 2022 @ 4:35pm 
@Verroak Krasha Either by replacing/Adding classes to the 'ExventPossibleClasses' array, or by setting their class to `Rookie`.
Verroak Krasha 19 Jan, 2022 @ 6:50am 
So what should I put in those character templates to make them a random class hybrid? RM_HybridSoldier? I'm going to test this in the meantime, hope I don't break anything lol.
Mr Danger Dude  [author] 18 Jan, 2022 @ 6:13pm 
@Verroak Krasha Just updated to allow one to configure the character template of each individual recruitment project, so you can switch it to have them by Hybrids instead of EXVENT Soldiers now.
Verroak Krasha 18 Jan, 2022 @ 12:14am 
Any chance for a version that will work with "Non-Skirmisher ADVENT Hybrids"? I use it with Allies Unknown to have the hybrids integrate seamlessly into my class make up.
Wet Dog Squad 17 Jan, 2022 @ 4:17pm 
Does this disable/hide EXVENT's mechanics and GTS Perk that implement their own version of capture?
Nero 17 Jan, 2022 @ 8:33am 
u'm back after the facility but it's 11.30pm, i'll try it tmr
