Well, I can capture the alien (UFO: Afterlight)
Help plz ... I have something wrong or I'm doing something wrong. The mission is to capture a beastman with an arrow. I kill everyone, even the forces of nature, I beat the mob with an arrow, it falls with red lives and I get a message saying you took him prisoner, get into a UFO and fly away ... but as a current I run away from him and he disappears from visibility to me again a message saying the prisoner escaped, you have to catch him again !!! and so on when I run up everything is fine.. How do I finish the mission???? The version of the game from 1C should not seem to have jambsKelgar
This situation means that not all the other aliens on the map have been killed. You didn't find anyone.
There are 2 ways to take prisoner:
1) Really kill all the aliens on the map (except for the one we take prisoner), even those that hid in some buildings or on the 2nd / 3rd floors (if any ), the forces of nature do not have to be killed. After that, reduce the target alien's health to red so that it falls unconscious and one of the fighters approaches close enough to it, or, if its health is already reduced to red and it lies somewhere on the map, just approach as a fighter. After that, the task will automatically end and will be considered successfully completed.
2) Use the non-lethal weapon "stun wand" melee on the target alien (the wand becomes available after learning the technology "Capture enemies alive"), while the health will decrease not to red, but to a gray level, that is, it will be temporarily stunned. After some time, the alien will come to his senses and, provided that at that moment one of the player’s fighters is nearby, the alien will come under our control. Then it remains to bring this alien and the rest of the fighters to the evacuation zone near the UFO and evacuate. The task will also be considered successful.
Based on my experience, I recommend the first method. Usually it is simpler, faster and more reliable. In addition, it allows you to take all the loot from the task if you wish. But at high difficulty levels, when the battle with aliens is fraught with high risk, and sometimes there is not enough ammo, the second one may also be relevant.
