It's not the only aspect of reaction fire that's broken in TFTD of course. Probably this is a symptom of the general brokenness of reaction fire in TFTD - e.g. the underwater only weapons that reaction fire on land. I wonder how they managed to break it so comprehensively? And if it could be patched back together? [[User:Spike|Spike]] 11:29, 19 June 2009 (EDT)

X-COM Turn reaction fire immunity

Just based off a question on the Strategycore Forums by user Veki, it seems that TFTD breaks the reaction fire mechanics for SWS during X-COM's turn. In other words, they're immune to reaction fire. They will get attacked during the aliens' turn, but they don't get fired on during your turn.

This appears to occur in both patched and unpatched dos versions as well as CE. Can anyone else test this out and return with their findings? What I'd really like to know is if this occurs in the Playstation edition as well, just to round things off.
