Revision as of 00:49, 31 January 2013

This file contains information specific to the crafts in the game. Both X-COM and Alien crafts (including hidden ones) are in this file, though the values for the alien craft are still shrouded in mystery.

Note that TFTD uses a different version of this file.


UFO Structure

There are 50 records each having 104 bytes long for a maximum file size of 5,200 bytes. All offsets and values are in decimal.

Offset
(Decimal) 		Offset
(Hex) 		Usage
0 0x00 Craft type, Possible values are the same as GEODATA.DAT: 
    *HUMAN*          *ALIEN*         
0 - Skyranger     5 - Small Scout      255 - Entry Not Used
1 - Lightning     6 - Medium Scout
2 - Avenger       7 - Large Scout
3 - Interceptor   8 - Harvester
4 - Firestorm     9 - Abductor
                 10 - Terror Ship
                 11 - Battleship
                 12 - Supply Ship
Offsets 1 and 5 refer to the weapon placed in the left and right slots respectively. (The Lightning does not have a center weapon type, only a left). Their possible values are listed here: 
0 - Stingray
1 - Avalanche
2 - Cannon
3 - Fusion Ball
4 - Laser Cannon
5 - Plasma Beam
255 - No Weapon
1 0x01 Left weapon type
2-3 0x02-0x03 Left ammo
4 0x04 Indicates what a craft is doing. 
0 - At base
1 - Airborne
2 - UFO's often get this value, have no idea what it represents.
5 0x05 Right weapon type
6-7 0x06-0x07 Right ammo
8-9 0x08-0x09 Unused.
1011 0x0A-0x0B Damage, that is the amount it currently has taken. This value divided by the crafts damage capacity gives the percentage shown in-game.
12-13 0x0C-0x0D Altitude of craft. Is a index within ENGLISH.DAT for string. 
0 = GROUND *
1 = VERY LOW
2 = LOW
3 = HIGH
4 = VERY HIGH
5 = Detected
6 = SIZE
etc

(*NOTE: If craft is airborne and you change it to this value the altitude will remain the same. Speed must be edited to 0 for the change to hold.)

14-15 0x0E-0x0F Speed of craft.
16-17 0x10-0x11 Index into LOC.DAT referencing the destination - for example, waypoints for X-COM craft, or X-COM bases for alien craft.
18-19 0x12-0x13 Index into INTER.DAT when the ship is in interception mode.
20-21 0x14-0x15 Next UFO waypoint coordinate X (longitude).
22-23 0x16-0x17 Next UFO waypoint coordinate Y (latitude).
24-25 0x18-0x19 Fuel, amount remaining. This value divided by the crafts total fuel capacity gives the percentage shown in-game.
26-27 0x1A-0x1B Base reference as an index to LOC.DAT.
28-29 0x1C-0x1D Mission type craft is on. Is an index within ENGLISH.DAT for the string (558 + this value). 
0 = Alien Research
1 = Alien Harvest
2 = Alien Abduction
3 = Alien Infiltration
4 = Alien Base
5 = Alien Terror
6 = Alien Retaliation
7 = Alien Supply
30-31 0x1E-0x1F Zone where mission is being carried out. Is an index within ENGLISH.DAT for string (543 + this value). 
0 = North America
1 = Arctic
2 = Antarctica
3 = South America
4 = Europe
5 = North Africa
6 = Southern Africa
7 = Central Asia
8 = South East Asia
9 = Siberia
10 = Australasia
11 = Pacific
12 = North Atlantic
13 = South Atlantic *
14 = Indian Ocean *

(*NOTE: Unused zones.)

32-33 0x20-0x21 UFO trajectory segment (ranges from 0-7).
34-35 0x22-0x23 UFO trajectory type (ranges from 0-9).
36-37 0x24-0x25 Alien Race found on craft. Is index within ENGLISH.DAT for the string (466 + this value).
