Alien Retrieval

Been playing for 2 days - love the game. Can someone tell me how to pick up wounded aliens? - I can only get next to them with a soldier.

Click the move mutton, or "m" at your keyboard. Then right click the alien. If that doesn't work, move so that your path goes over the alien, and pause when you are over it. You have to take it in your hands...

You meant button and not mutton there right?

[Slaughter]

Hehe, yeah

Well, sometimes it can be tricky, like the game doesn't register what you're trying to do. I usually step up next to the corpse, and then i have to place the mouse pointer just so; It has to be like on the border between you and the corpse or something, else i get the red no can do circle.

Thanks! The M button did it. I did notice the mission is a success even if I don't actually pick up the alien - at least it did for that mission. Thanks again.

Meh, had the problem too. I had to move the guys away so the body disappeared off the screen, then click over where the body should be (usually marked with a dropped gun). M button works wonders though.
