			I have absolutely no idea how rmp file works, but perhaps those values are there to point the aliens in the right direction.

			X-Com Spawn points may very well appear in bases, but perhaps the rules are different for landing craft. I'm guessing they may be hard coded into the executable?

 Hey guys - can anyone answer this for me?  If .RMP files for alien routes through the terrain and aliens don't go into the Xcom ships, why are there .RMP files for the Avenger, Skyranger and Lightning?  [[User:Phoenix|Phoenix]] 03 April 2006 10:56 (BST)
 Aliens *do* go into the XCom ships.  You just need to be unable to sweep properly...say, if you're thinking in RPG mode and simply must have so-and-so Captain on day one, so the crash site team for the Small Scout (crew one) is just so-and-so (and possibly one backup).  It helps if the alien starts on the ceiling a two-story building obscuring LOS to the deployment craft, immediately east-west of the deployment craft.
