| |
| − | The Situation Room is the location at [[HQ (EU2012)|HQ]] where the Commander will be informed and deal with the strategic decisions affecting [[ (EU2012)| ]]XCOM on its fight against the [[Aliens (EU2012)|aliens]]. The Situation Room will display information about XCOM's [[Storyline (EU2012)#XCOM Objectives|objectives]], its [[Finances (EU2012)|Finances]], present [[News Items (EU2012)|news items]] from all over the world regarding the invasion, and the number of countries who have left the Council. It is also possible to launch [[Satellite (EU2012)|satellites]], fulfill Council [[Requests (EU2012)|requests]] and, in the [[XCOM: Enemy Within DLC (EU2012)|Enemy Within DLC]] to carry out [[Covert Operations (EU2012)|Covert Operations]] against [[EXALT (EU2012)|EXALT]].

| |

| |
| − | The Situation Room will display the Panic level throughout the world. Each country has a panic level from 0 to 100 (and a tiered color) and it will increase or decrease depending on how well XCOM responds to alien activity in that country and the continent and also on the presence of satellites. Once a country has reached a high enough level of panic, that country may permanently withdraw from the XCOM project. Once all sixteen countries leave the Council the XCOM project will be automatically terminated. For more information, see [[Managing_Panic_(EU2012)|Managing Panic]].

| |
| − | The Objectives suggest milestones (e.g., "''Construct the Alien Containment Facility''"; "''Research the Arc Thrower''") to help you progress through the game. Those actions are usually marked as '''Priority''' on the lists of available projects for your base. A list of XCOM's objectives can be found at [[Storyline_(EU2012)|Storyline]].

| |
| − | It is possible to launch satellites from the Situation Room after they are built by [[Engineering (EU2012)|Engineering]]. By expanding its space detection network XCOM will enhance its capabilities to detect and stop incoming UFOs, receive additional Council funding and extra scientists and/or engineers received for each additional country covered.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The continent where the XCOM base is located will also provide additional bonuses, listed under '''Bonus''' in the table above. If you cover an entire continent with satellites, then you also get that bonus even if your base is located elsewhere.

| |
| − | Launching satellites will also decrease the [[Panic (EU2012)|panic]] level of the country over which it is deployed and as the satellite cover expands to cover an entire continent, the player will get the additional continent bonuses listed above. Due to its critical role, the [[Aliens (EU2012)|Aliens]] will also send [[UFOs (EU2012)#UFO Missions|UFOs]] on missions to try to target and destroy XCOM's satellite network. To protect its satellites XCOM will also have to [[Hangar (EU2012)|deploy]] Interceptors on those continents to stop any hostile incursions.

| |

| |
| − | The Situation Room provides links to [[Finances (EU2012)|Finances]], which will display your total § on-hand and monthly income.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | XCOM receives a base funding each month from the Council, plus additional funding obtained through the deployment of satellites over countries. The starting funding will depend on the continent and country where the [[XCOM Headquarters (EU2012)|Headquarters]] is located. Since it comes with a deployed satellite, the starting funding will consist of the base funding plus the funding of the country where HQ is located. Both starting and country funding will be affected by the game [[Difficulty (EU2012)|difficulty]] and the bonus that is gained from placing the base on that continent.
| |
| − | Each country provides funding as long as they remain in the Council, which depends on their panic level, which ultimately depends on the player's ability to 'protect' those countries with satellite coverage and successfully completing tactical combat missions. Continents provide bonuses for placing your base there and for covering the entire continent with satellites. For strategy discussion on choosing base location and managing satellite coverage, go to the [[Managing Panic (EU2012)|Managing Panic]] page.

After the EXALT Base is destroyed, the Covert Operations tab is removed from the Situation Room.
