@-bg-

Great mod. Could I request that you make the same mod, except for other missions? Primarily, Chosen Avenger Assault (with the artillery cannon), and Alien Fortress (final mission - gives new meaning to when Bradford says "We're going to throw everything we've got at em").

And then as a secondary priority, other general missions that don't normally have friendly reinforcements.

I have edited defaultmissionsdefs to 20, as my squad is normally 16.Hopfully i will get the misson to show up, and will post the outcome if it dose, as to weather you get extra solders droped in or not.

ahh you are right. huh well I guess this would get it to be whatever number you want it to be right off the bat and then not need to worry about extras coming in (which I guess is another way to do it).

nope, that increases the initial squad size but not the reinforcements limit.
ShunBrokuSatsu 16 Apr, 2018 @ 8:49am 
I believe the fix for this is simple. The system changed in that the huge file that was DefaultMissions.ini got split up into 3. The 3 files are DefaultMissions.ini, DefaultMissionDefs.ini and DefaultMissionSources.ini. The one that deines the max soldiers property is the DefaultMissionDefs.ini. You should just be able to edit that one for WOTC and it should do the same thing.

ya the system changed in wotc, it will need a different fix
Marcus 13 Dec, 2017 @ 8:52pm 
it is not working in wotc for me - only had 6 soldiers, but have 16 soldiers in all other missions.

Is this compatible with WOTC?

Ah, nevermind, found it. Still, thank you for your efforts on all these wonderful mods.
CaptainKampfkeks 27 Sep, 2017 @ 7:04am 
A great mod. I want to change the value for my Long War campaign but can't find the folder 674260951 anywhere. Could you help me?
-bg-  [author] 24 Jul, 2017 @ 6:47pm 
yes
Dęąth Viper 24 Jul, 2017 @ 4:43pm 
is this needed even with LW Toolbox?
-bg-  [author] 24 Jul, 2017 @ 4:22pm 
it will work with missions that use the default avenger defense map.
thinkbomb 23 Jul, 2017 @ 8:34pm 
this SHOULD work with Better Advent 2, right?
Doc_Calm 5 Jun, 2017 @ 12:37pm 
Dear god BG, U rock! U should see about working directly Long War Studios.
Dęąth Viper 16 May, 2017 @ 11:49am 
Lucius what mods are you using??
Lucius Confucius 2 Dec, 2016 @ 12:05pm 
Does not work. 6 soldiers vs a couple of hundred hostiles. GL I'm done for. I have the increased squad size mod too and increased enemy spawns together with 1 extra pod for enemies.
-bg-  [author] 11 Nov, 2016 @ 10:36pm 
this is just a kismet variable modification and there are quite a number of mods that are doing the same thing already, go ahead and add it but don't forget to put up warnings regarding incompabilities because 2 mods that does the same thing might causes unexpected behaviour with the configs.

Hi, i'm planning on creating a conglomerate mod that contains the info from the multiple mods I already use, and creditting all the authors whose mods will be part of it. I just wanted to inform you and give you a chance to deny me permission to use your code specifically. If you do so, I shall respect your wish and remove your portion, and continue to use your mod personally for gaming purposes. There will be no additions or subtractions from your mod as I lack the knowledge and desire to change your work, with the minor exception of where the sdk considers it necessary in order for the mod to actually work. Thank you for your time, and good luck with your continued modding efforts. I shall check back in three days for a response, should it not exist, I shall move forward in the assumption that you are not denying me permission at that time.

@prophyz™ I have noticed him also....That type of guy is becoming more common on the internet It seems...Same stupid comments same stupid logic...different names. Sometimes I hate the anonymity of the internet...Getting your ass beat is a missing developmental tool for kids these days...
Justice4Ever 15 Jul, 2016 @ 12:40am 
I cannot find the file. Any help?
PROPHYZ 14 Jul, 2016 @ 3:24pm 
If you play with better Ai and a lot of new custom enemies + mabey even bigger pods (+)....
you will be very very thankfull to have mods such like this one. I saw Artuurs retarded comments on many mods now,not sure if he is trolling or plain stupid, mabey even bouth ways.
I get 5-7 Units per reinforcement drop with all the new custom enemies,not to mention any pod increased 1+3 compared to vanilla,your whole map will be full in no time.
Getting on this mission around 200 kills + isn't enough for you ?
Your comment is unnecesary and stupid as always 0/10
Zeta_Enigma 15 May, 2016 @ 6:17am 
lmao Artuurs, you do realize that there are mods to make the enemies harder right? In addition, some people such as myself enjoy having large amounts of soldiers for certain missions, especially when I increase the amount of enemies drastically to make things even. It's almost like I have a mini platoon under my control, very fun.
Artuurs 10 May, 2016 @ 7:06am 
So unnecesary and stupid, the sheer amount of soldiers you get for these missions are over the top and way more than you need, theres not enough enemies to counter the vanila amount of xcom soldiers and reinforcments... bad mod.
Lia Springs 5 May, 2016 @ 2:42pm 
I thank you -bg- for making such an immersive mod because I set my Maximum-Active-Soldiers-Number to 100. I mean, you should be able to send everything you have on such an important mission...
Thank you -bg- for making such a great mod !
(Fun fact: I rewrote this comment three times because it did not say what i meant...)
Arkan 1 May, 2016 @ 4:47am 
Very Nice! :ccknight:
Wombat 29 Apr, 2016 @ 7:38am
