*** MOD *** NPC/AI Regenerating Shields

Wed Apr 09, 2003 4:21 pm by DalWill

I've made a mod also (our players @ Leikkipuisto really wanted a very hard mod), which is completely server side. (Loadouts.ini)
Changes against normal version:

- Fully regenerating shields on Computer ships.

- Added more armor to computer ships (armor multiplier) to simulate computer nanobot/shield battery usage)

- Optimised Faction-ships to use their best faction arsenal on each ship levels.

- Leveled Mines, Countermeasures, Cruise Disruptors and Thrusters to match ship levels.

Overall these modifications made the game a lot harder. So you gotta be very good fighter to survive in our server

I found out that you get beaten by 4 corsair ships quite easily, no matter what ship you are flying. (This mod will make you sweat)

So far I only publish this mod by email, so the request can be put there.

I can't bless everyone.

This is actually very easy to check. If ship "X" has shields npc_shield01_mark09
First you check what ship it is, for example BW_elite2 is sabre.

Okay, so the ship is bw_Elite2. So then we check what shipclass it is, from shiparch.ini.

[Ship
ids_name = 237012
ids_info = 66515
ids_info1 = 66516
ids_info2 = 66608
ids_info3 = 66517
ship_class = 3
nickname = bw_elite2

Shipclasses:
0=Light Fighter
1=Heavy fighter
2=Feighter
3=Very Heavy fighter

(Note. Heavy - and Very heavy fighters use same shields)

Assuming all this, This ship would get shield shield01_mark09_hf (Champion H. F. Shield) instead of npc_shield01_mark09 - shield (Champion Graviton Shield
).

I can't bless everyone.
