Changing recruiting cost
Changing recruiting cost
I would like to change the supply cost of recruiting new rookies. Where do I go to find the right file? I am not experienced in changing files so tell me like I'm a child. Thanks.

Re: Changing recruiting cost
Go to your steam library and go to the following folder:
You'll see the following:
The values 0-4 represent the difficulty levels rookie (0) through to legend (4). The values (10) are the supply costs. Change these to whatever you like.
Bear in mind I believe one of the continent bonuses is to reduce recruit cost to 0, so if you were to set it to 0 here you might end up with a useless bonus if you managed to get it in your campaign. (I might be wrong though and they took that one out, haven't seen it yet).
Now open the file XComGameData.ini with a text editor, heavily recommend Notepad++ and search for "RecruitSupplyCosts".steamapps/workshop/268500/844674609/config
You'll see the following:
Code: Select all
RecruitSupplyCosts[0]=10 ;Easy
RecruitSupplyCosts[1]=10 ;Normal
RecruitSupplyCosts[2]=10 ;Classic
RecruitSupplyCosts[3]=10 ;Impossible
