Can I "undo" which squad I sent on a mission?

natchela · 05-03-2012, 08:04 PM

There's a mission that asks for technicians, so I built up a new squad with technicians to send out, but everything I see indicates it sent the first one, instead. I saved the game and un-paused the game, anyway, and sure enough, the squad with no technicians got sent. Is there anyway I can undo this? This seems like a major failure.. not being able to choose which squad got sent. "Last one looked at" is pretty in-effectual...

Thanks..

Click on the UFO and you can delete the action.

To change your active party, go to the equipment screen and look at the squad list beside the "active" button.

I wouldn't worry about it if it's a water pipe type mission, the extra XP they get isn't very much. The only time it's important is when you need someone to place dynamite on a structure, but even that's not too bad. You just abort and wait a bit and the mission reappears.

But yeah if you click on the UFO while in flight, you can delete the waypoint and it'll return to base.

even if you dont have any dynamite you can do what I did and just shoot the buildings till they are destroyed lol I did that before I knew there was anything such as dynamite.

^ this. if you have enough ammo left, you can just shoot objectives to destroy them.

worth noting: in my game, there seems to be a bug/glitch with multiple squads, where simply clicking a squad doesn't select them as active for a mission. I have to actually go into the equipment screen for the intended squad for it to register.
