How does Mobility stat correspond to tiles moved per action?
X-COM operatives have Mobility 12, but they don't move 12 tiles. In 1 action they can move 8 tiles in a straight line, or dash for 16 tiles.
Best Answer
Looking at ini files (defaultgamecore.ini, line 1508 and defaultgamedata_soldierskills.ini, line 144), there are also meters and unreal units:
1 tile = 96 unreal units
1 meter = 64 unreal units
So 1 tile = 1.5 meters
So Mobility is in meters per action.
Examples (using Legend stats):
- 12 Mobility = 8 tiles (X-COM without PCS, basic enemies)
- 13 Mobility = 8.6 tiles (X-COM with PCS Speed+1)
- 14 Mobility = 9.3 tiles (Stun Lancer Mark1, Faceless)
- 15 Mobility = 10 tiles (Psi Zombie, Stun Lancer Mark2&3, Chryssalid, Berserker without enrage)
- 16 Mobility = 10.6 tiles (X-COM With PCS Speed+3 and GTS bonus, Sectopod)
Fractional speed adds up for dashes and diagonal movement.
