The INI comments for the randomized mercs feature mention that IMP stats can also be randomized, but I haven't been able to configure the game to do so. What steps do I need to take in order to get IMP stats randomized? I've been wanting to do sort of an XCOM style game with IMP 'templates' by making IMPs representing certain squad roles and then randomizing their stats to simulate procedurally generated soldiers.

You mean the "MERCS_RANDOM_x" parameters in "JA2_Options.ini"? Those are for mercs not IMPs.

Ah. In that case the INI file should probably be updated.

By the way, is there any way to do what I described with 1.13?

What exactly should be updated in the Ja2_Options.ini? The 1.13 file doesn't mention anything about IMPs for this option. If you are using a mod you should report errors to the mod author so he can fix it.

There is no way to randomize IMP stats in default 1.13.

Oops, looks like I misread the INI description, for whatever reason I got the description for Recruitment Settings and the Random Stats description mixed up.

 Being able to recruit IMPs with randomized stats would be nice though. ;)

I don't think a 'Random' button at the IMP stat allocation screen does any good for the work required when the player can allocate the free stat points since the beginning of time...

 Well, I suppose there'd be a need/option to bring the text survey back and couple it with that to some degree.
