Long War EW 1.0 Missing Bomb

Post by starbird1975 »

Hello everyone

I am playing LW EW 1.0 on Mac, no other mods on top, Normal Ironman. I am in the Slaughterhouse Bomb Disposal Mission. I have cleared all the pods, have 3 turns left, and have people in the slaughterhouse which can see everything on the ground floor. There is no bomb. It's definitely not where it is usually located in EW. I haven't found an invisible bomb either by tile scanning. Is the bomb location random as well? If yes, what are possible locations?

Assuming I can make a backup of the save game and let the bomb explode, does the game show the location? If this is the case, which files do a I need to copy in order to make a backup of my Ironman save game?

Any help much appreciated.

Found the bomb: the location is indeed variable. In my case it was in the small alley at the left side of the Slaughterhouse. Thus we conclude that one should never burn all the Motion Tracker charges during the early part of the mission.
