Title: How do I use Xenologist teams?
Post by: Iunnrais on June 03, 2012, 10:33:21 PM

I'm still learning the UI and the mechanics, so I'm futzing about, cheating like crazy to get a handle on things.   I spawned ruins on mars, planted a colony there, created a xenologist team on earth, shipped it over to mars. . .  and now what?  The team is sitting on mars, doing nothing as far as I can tell.   The f2 screen says "Abandoned Installations - ?? / (Unknown Race - Xenologist Team Needed)"

The team is there, how do I start exploiting?

They do their stuff on their own as soon as you drop them into the colony. It might take them quite a while to translate the alien language and get back to you with a report.

And once the Xeno team tells you what you need to know, you need Engineer brigades to exploit them.

And combat units to defend your engineers, civilians and infrastructure that are on the planet or are found by the engineers.
