Did I miss something here or what

I'll bet money you didn't re-install the FoC 1.1 patch.

I did the Golans range increase the long way to.. each one seperately, i wasn't sure if i could get different ranges for different stations and different hardpoints (the torps) by just replacing all the values at once. But yeah took me about 30 minutes as well... had almost lost the will to live near the end, gives you just a small indication of the amount of work that has gone in to each and every ship with all the new hardpoints :-)

ok man, do you have the foc patch, is the mod folder in the foc directry

did you do a fresh intsall of pr before replacing the data file

[RICON]

Zarkis, how's progress (of course if you still work on the project)? I'm especially interested in increasing offensive capabilities you mentioned, as far too often rebel capships hover over my planets without attacking them on land...

[keraunos]

Any news?

[Zarkis]

I released v0.6 available from the first post. Fixed some bugs and enhanced some features like the shipbuilding of the AI. Have fun!

I think the latest one might be corrupted or something. It is the correct size but it won't unzip. It says it is unzipping the file but a new folder is not created.

[Kitkun]

Downloaded fine for me. Installing it now.

Edit: this first part actually didn't happen


The AI builds WAAY too fast. And They get they're heroes back. I killed Tyco celchu and they had him back in his ISD in under a week. So do WE get heroes back too? And on top of that, they had Garm back in literally a second. I am not Joking.

Question: did you do modify anything else in building file? I like 1 building per type per planet idea. Or, in other words, what to do to keep 1 building per planet (an easy way, as I know how to edit - will the previous version work? )

Go into specialstructures.xml and look for: <Build_Max_Instances_Per_Planet> 2 </Build_Max_Instances_Per_Planet>. Change it to 1.

My mod isn't causing this. All heroes have a lifetime limit of one and proper build times. Here are the stats for Garm Bel Iblis:

<HeroCompany Name="Garm_Bel_Iblis_Team">
<Build_Cost_Credits>20000</Build_Cost_Credits>
<Build_Time_Seconds>60</Build_Time_Seconds>
<Build_Limit_Current_Per_Player>1</Build_Limit_Current_Per_Player>
<Build_Limit_Lifetime_Per_Player>1</Build_Limit_Lifetime_Per_Player>

Thanks a lot, done

BTW, thanks for an idea to limit buildings to one/planet. The game gained much through this

Zarkis, I would like to let you know that I love you.

Lol

Al that Crap above hasn't happened with the Empire on Core Worlds. They have actually only used fleet commanders at me. They haven't sent vader or mara after me,
(They haven't used Tagge because the AI can't beat me in space battles ), but they use the crap out of smugglers. if a smuggler is on your shipping planetn(the one where you put your crapload of GR-82's or Action IV) it can drain you a good 3,000 creditis if your not careful. Also the AI doesn't seem interested in upgrading past level 2 on anything. Still damn good job of getting it to upgrade to begin With!

[keraunos]

Zarkis, do you ever play Imperials? I'm asking because it seems that Rebel-AI still uses Independence-class ships in huge numbers. I've tried to play MidRim campaign, and they build them almost as fast as I destroy them Could you make them less common?

Also, could I use your mod in my modding project?PR Enhanced

Great work on the new AI, the only problem I seem to have with it is that the enemy doesnt use huge fleets, and instead uses one or two dreadnoughts to harrass areas of low force concentration, which after a while gets old. I put building limits on the dreadnoughts which seemed to help a little, but Is there a way we can make it to where the enemy concentrates its resources into larger fleets?

[keraunos]

It depends who you're plaing as. As it is now, Zarkis seems to be focused on playing Rebels. I don't know if he touched Rebel AI, yet they still keep coming with Independences :( On the other hands, many players reports that they face huge numbers of ISDs, so this side looks ok. I might try to do something with Rebels tonight...
