Known Bugs:

  • Some ships do not have names or are improperly named
  • Colonials still glow occasionally

If you have any ideas for abilities, or want to report a bug, please post here. I will try to keep you up to date on progress.

v0.96 Changes

  • Entrenchment v1.05 compatability
  • Fixed String not found errors for the Galactica's colonize ability and the Worldstar's extra squadrons ability
  • Temporarily removed the custom static defense structures, so there will not be any more bug reports about the meshes reverting to the unmodded forms
  • The Cloud 9 is now correctly called the Cloud 9
  • New weapon sound effects for the Galactica+Mercury

Please, if you play this, report back here any balancing problems, particullarly in terms of research.

How comes all the ships have Red engines instead of blue?

Yep, like the others said, it's because of team color.

Ah, so if I wanted it to be realistic, I'd have to play as blues?

That's cool :)

Why blue?  Everyone knows the Colonial color is red.  Only Cylons like the color blue.  You aren't a Cylon are you?

Technically, the engine exhaust on the Galactica is blue, but the other things, like the stripes on the front are red. But red looks way cooler anyway:P

Columbia had blue - don't go forgetting her ;)

Just one thing I found in the last release... I know you are about to release another one, but maybe you can fix it.

 

Cylon research, third missile research item...  I think it should say Precision Missiles...  you put persision.

 

Again, I love your work here.  GJ.

Hey, Columbia was the best damn ship in the fleet - she was the flagship of her class. *Grumbles*

Then why was she the one that went down?:P

And just an fyi for everyone, the mod won't be released first thing tomorrow morning. So don't ask where it is:P Expect it later in the day.

She went down because the other Battlestars weren't close enough to counteract. Also, her weapon systems went offline - maybe Cylons.

Never underestimate the Columbia! :L

Hey Kyogre,

I was playing this mod last night, and got tired of getting spammed with Gammas...  so I built two Sentrus Battlestars, leveled them up to level 6, got the Board ability, and started boarding them...

 

then I noticed every time I boarded one, I got charged supply points for it.  I was cash floating by that point, and had more metal and crystal than I needed, so I couldn't tell if I was charged, but it looks like only my supply is being hit.  After stealing 7 Gammas, I looked at my supply, and found I was behind 200 supply points.

 

Is that ability supposed to do that?  If there is nothing that can be done, that's cool with me.  Stealing them is the best solution to being over run with Gamma's yet.

That happens in base Sins as well - definately in other mods it does.

He's right, that's how Sins does it. AFAIK there is no way to change that. But in the new update later today, you'll be getting a new way to deal with Gammas:P

So far, stealing them is my favorite solution...  looking forward to the update.

Ok, I'm uploading the mod to Filefront right now. So if you'll all join me in praying that Filefront actually accepts it...:P

Yes I did. Also, I forgot to put something in the changelog (it's there now). I gave the Colonials something similar to the Gamma Basestar. The Berzerk-class escort now takes the place of the carrier.
