| This file is created in the MISSDAT folder when a new combat is initiated. It uses the same format as [[OBPOS.DAT]] and [[OBPOS2.DAT]] - however, it only stores as many records as are required for the items that it contains (hence the filesize will be 16 bytes multiplied by the record count). It (presumably) has a limit of 170 items, and the tactical game engine uses it when generating the new playing field.

| The items listed in this file are those to be given to X-Com troops (which are all placed in the position of the first trooper, and unequiped), those used by aliens (which are assigned to the aliens themselves), and any other items that are present on the battlefield (such as elerium).
| |
| | |
| Note that whenever you attack a grounded UFO, there will always be a record for elerium recorded in this file. If you attack a UFO that was gunned down, when combat begins the power supply of the craft may explode - killing a few aliens perhaps, and almost certainly destroying the elerium. Nevertheless elerium will still be present in this file, as it is not destroyed until combat has actually began.
