Balance Mod Pending Updates

Greetings!

Just wanted to keep those interested informed of the upcoming plans for the Balance Mod.

I'm working on v1.09 to be released with the next SE:V patch. So far it's a few AI improvements and a couple of data file fixes. It should also be compatible with the German/French versions of SE:V, assuming that capacity is added by the patch.

After that, I'll be working on v1.10, which will definitely be a save-game and PBW breaking version. It will feature major AI updates (stellar manipulation usage, cloak usage, etc), a new set of override slots and whatever data file tweaks that are felt necessary. This version will likely be posted at the end of the summer since I'll be away most of July and will need a significant amount of time to test with the AI work.

If all goes well with v1.10 and there's no real issues with it then I'll consider it the final version for now. That will give me the time to work on the new Galaxy Mod.

override slots ????

Yes. It's possible to make all the shipsets use the same slots to eliminate potential advantages that a race's set might have over another one. The current ones were made Fyron are ok, but I would like to have one that has a centre row of slots to make for better symmetry. Razz

I agree, symmetry is nice.

Just a heads up:

I'm not sure if MM will be releasing the next patch before I depart on Holidays, so not certain how things will work out. I'll have intermittent access to the internet, so I might be able to post v1.09 (which requires the current SE beta version, ie +1.42) on my site when the next SE:V patch is released depending on when that happens.

It'll be about a week when I get back home.

I'll be posting v1.09 tonight. I need to run a few quick tests to make sure the revised political settings are working as intended, otherwise everything else seems to be in place.
