I'm a dumbass

For some reason, I can't pick up anything. I'm in the Area 51 mission trying to retrieve the box, and I can't pick it up. Just wondering how to do it. The manuel for the game says nothing about what command to use to pick things up. Thanks for any help.

Hi, Jesterific. To pick up the box just move your soldier to the square where the box is, right-click on your solider's face to bring up the equipment screen and then drag the box, which should appear on the right column (things on the floor) to your inventory. Notice that some items like corpses can only be carried in hands, so you'll have to remove your weapon from them first. I don't remember right now if the box needs to be carried in hands as well.

 

I Hope this helps.

You don't need to carry it in your arms iirc, but i remember a bug being in 1.1 where you had to drop it in the "delivery" zone and pick it back up to let the game recognize that it was there....

Thank you very much. Now I can finally continue.
