I have some doubts about offset 6-7. The page says that it is the horizontal destination, it looks more like the time left before crash/terror site will disappear (or maybe the offset has two usages depending on the type of the location?). It is reset to 3 for as long as there is a craft targeting the site. [[User:Seb76|Seb76]] 10:45, 26 April 2008 (PDT)

: As neither crash nor terror sites have meaningful destinations anyway (only start locations), there's no reason why these offsets can't be overloaded to mean something else in these cases.  -- [[User:Zaimoni|Zaimoni]] 14:32, 26 April 2008 (CDT)

Altitude

Shouldn't the altitude be set in this file as well? Probably one of the Unknown values, and XCOM and Alien Bases might have rubbish data in them. --Pi Masta 15:27, 8 February 2007 (PST)
