Incompatibility FAQ's
-If dropships are hovering forever and not spawning mechs, or if waves get stuck and stop spawning enemies, then there is an incompatibility going on most likely with the compat pack or a mod that adds new mech variants/weapons to the game. This can also happen when you dont keep the cab or whatever the same version that your mod intends to use.
-if endgame missions are spawning anywhere and exploration missions are spawning as normal procgen missions then another mod is overridding MissionChoicePersistentData. make sure my mod loads last to fix this issue or remove the other mod.

MODS POTENTIALLY NOT COMPATIBLE:
TTrulesAI  (coyote pilot may not follow orders.)
Colorized HomeScreen (variable) (sh01-Buttons)    (My mod has to override his mod)

ABSOLUTELY NOT COMPATIBLE
Low Tonnage High Difficulty Missions
HeavierEnemyLances
shush ryana
Better spawns
Increased warzone rewards

Special note to other modders: If you add in new mechs or mech variants DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES edit the intro date and the unit type on the unitcard!! This will permanently corrupt your unitcard and thus result in the unit failing to spawn when called via squad selection. Which will result in missions not ending properly in my mod. Try to find a unitcard that is similar to what you need and do not modify much, if anything.

List of mission types and information about them:

Attack and defend:
There is an enemy base and an allied base on the map. You are required to keep the allied base alive WHILE destroying the enemy base.
Repair bays are available for this mission at the allied base.
Mega-Turrets are employed by both allied and enemy forces in higher difficulties.
-TIPS-
-Be sure to make use of the repair bays before you suffer internal damage or if you need ammo restock.
-Allies will launch attacks against the enemy base.. Be sure to take advantage of this.
-Enemy forces will begin suffering battle fatigue around 10 minutes into the mission, spawning less and less often the longer the mission goes on for.. After 40 minutes they will stop spawning permanently... Use this knowledge as you see fit.
-The ai allies are not very good at defending the base... It is mostly your job to ensure the base defense. (if playing singleplayer it might be best to have a lancmate hold ground at the base and use the new pilot swap feature to control them to defend the base properly)
-The first enemy wave is the strongest.. Be prepared.

Patrol:
Investigative mission type that has many combinations of random encounters. Expect some immersive walking and some unexpected scenarios.
-TIPS-
-This mission relies heavily on RNG.. The only tips i can provide is that you should be ready for anything.

Recon:
Timed mission that requires you to reach each nav point to perform a recon of the area and then escape.
There will be sentry units stationed near some of the nav points and if they detect you they will call for reinforcements or artillery. Destroy these sentries in time to cancel the distress signals.
There is an optional objective on this mission to secure additional salvage, but will require you to overtake and capture a well guarded base.
-TIPS-
-Fighting anything other then VTOLS is a bad idea.. Speed is your friend.. You go slow, you die.
-I myself prefer to solo these missions in a light mech with stripped down weapons and full armor. Bringing ai on this mission can be a burden.
-Doing the optional objective may require you to bring a lance of heavier mechs.

Duels:
This is typically a 4v4 or 8v8 duel to the death. Enemies have improved stats so they are on par with players abilities.
There are random events in this mission that will shake things up from time to time, be ready for anything.
The opfor will have randomly selected quirks and habits that you will have to overcome.
Duelers have custom AI that will now play defensively and take cover.
-TIPS-
-Getting too much aggro can be a death sentence... Be sure to have some hard cover nearby at all times.
-When you target an enemy it will show under the target box what type of ai they have selected, plan your attacks accordingly.


Groundwar:
Heavy mech combat. You are supporting a demi-company vs the opfor company. 
This mission is similar to battleground except with a twist. Allies will drop alongside you rather then being surrounded at the start.
ALL units in the mission using the upgraded dueling AI, so expect firing lines being created by both teams.
Each team has a commanding mech, and whoever kills the opposing forces commander first will get reinforcements.
-TIPS-
-To new to have tips... Just dont stand out in the open for too long.


Rescue:
You are tasked with escorting a convoy of tanks to a friendly base under siege.. Once you arrive and eliminate the hostiles you must guard the tanks as they load up any survivors. Once complete you must hold position and continue to defend the tanks until the dropship arrives to evacuate and complete the mission.
There is an optional objective to defend the base as well, although sometimes a daunting task you will be granted some free weapon systems at the end of the mission if you are successful.
-TIPS-
-In some cases its best to let the convoy tanks soak up some damage if the convoy is in good shape.
-Dont take mechs that are super slow or you will have a difficult time repositioning to defend the convoy in an optimal way.
-Completing the optional objective will most likely require one or two light, fast mechs.
-The final wave is very difficult.. Use the union for cover but beware, the union CAN be destroyed by enemy fire and you will fail the mission if this happens.

Battleground:
This mission is all all out brawl between your allies and the opfor. Most units are pre-spawned on the map from the start, resulting in one of the largest scale battles available in this game.
Repair bays are available.
-TIPS-
-Do not over extend, let your npc allies do some of the work if you are taking too much damage.
-Try not to get too surrounded.
-If you are taking too much fire stop shooting and run away to break the aggro off of you.

BeachHead Defense:
You are tasked with defending a beachhead from enemy attack. This mission is an alternate take on PGI's beachhead mission where you are in the defenders position instead of the attackers.
If the hostiles destroy the satellite relays then leopards will drop units at the base in lower difficulties or call in a combat leopard in higher difficulties.

-TIPS-
-If you are wanting to place allies to defend the sat relays then try to place them in an interception area rather then right at the relay, as enemies may ignore the incoming damage and focus the relay instead.
-There is a 80 second radar sweep enabled on the map, so most of the time you will not know where the enemies are located.. scouting around in a light mech would be beneficial for this reason.

Convoy Destruction:
You are tasked with finding and destroying a hostile convoy before it reaches its pickup zone. All convoy units must be destroyed in order to win.

-TIPS-
-Bring at least one fast mech.
-Convoy cannot be ran over.
-The majority of hostile forces are garrisoned at the dropzone of the convoy, so attacking the convoy early on has the potential to make dealing with hostiles overwhelming.

Stronghold Defense:
Defend a base from waves of hostile attacks.
There is a new mechanic called defense points (DP) which you will use to purchase and build defenses at pre-determined locations around the base. DP is granted by destroying hostiles and completing side-objectives.

You can also spend additional DP to improve existing turrets. This will usually increase armor, weapons and accuracy. Upgrading to tier 3 will also add a slow, passive self repair to the turret.


OTHER ADDITIONS:


Friendly Aerospace Fighters:
You will have to find these in hidden exploration quests and do the associated mission to obtain them. You can also find upgrades for these ships scattered around in exploration resource missions.
Access options and information about these fighters via the new home screen button for my mod.
