Level skip
While in the battlescape screen press [Ctrl] + C or [Ctrl] + G to finish the level your on with the results of the previous level.

Extra money
Begin a new game and build a base. Save it, and quit the game. Open the game folder and you should see folders named "GAME_1" to "GAME_10". These are the saved game folders. Enter the saved game folder that represents the game that you saved. The order of the saves is the same as in the game. After you open the folder with your save in it, make a back up of the "LIGLOB.DAT" file. Then, open the original "LIGLOB.DAT" file with a text editor. You will see some encrypted data. Press [Enter] so that text jumps to line two and line one is clean. Then, insert FF FF 7f in the line one over the encrypted data and save the file. Then, start the game, load the saved game, and enter your base. You should now have $1,713,399,398.

Hints & Tips

Save Elerium
When you finish building a new ship, load it with the weapons. When it is totally charged and ready for flight, transfer it to another base. When it reachs the base, immediately send it out on patrol. Click on the ship and you will see that its fuel is 0%. That means it will not run out of fuel. Make sure that when you send the ship out on patrol, send it to the opposite side of the planet or a long way from your base. This will allow you to catch the ship after it attacks the enemy before it can return home. This is best done with the FireStorm craft. They are cheap and fast to build. The firepower is just as good as the Avenger, which cost more and takes a lot longer to build.

Always do terror sites during the day
When you happen to target a terror site or crashed UFO with a ship, it will not disappear, giving you time to get to it. If a terror site is in the darkness, send Interceptors one after the other to it. Hopefully, enough time will have gone by to get the terror or crash site in the daylight.

A easier way to avoid night time terror missions is knowing that as long as the terror site is targeted, and whatever has it targeted is moving towards it when the hour changes, it will stay there always. For example, if you need to buy yourself a few hours before it is light out at the site, put your Skyranger on patrol. A few minutes prior to the hour ending, target the terror site again. Then as soon as the hour changes go back on patrol.

Free manufacturing
First select the item to be manufactured, but assign no engineers and leave the number to produce at zero. Then, assign as many engineers as you like but only manufacture one item. You can use tanks with this trick to make a lot of money.
