But I thought I had seen it working. I seem to remember the actual movement cost of mixed units rising when I added heavier artillery.

Its easy enough to check (with a save game). But a screenshot of the unit moving would clear up any doubt too.
I thought so too, and us Shadow Empire veterans ...

105mm gun with model -31% move penalty and 300mm gun with -71% penalty have same AP cost when being towed by a +0 modifier truck.

The 1.25 manual indicates this behavior is incorrect.

That means alot coming from you!

It's a bit impudent asking this, but would you mind shooting over the files used to make Motorbikers with envirosuits + energy shields?

It already has kind of mod support, depending on what level of WH40kization you are trying to achieve... But of course it would benefit from opening the source code so modders can have full access.

You can look around at the game code all you want. The game literally ships with symbol files ...

I've been busy the last week with IRL stuff, and then when I finally had time to sit down for some Shadow Empire modding, Vic dumps a huge update with promises for a complete rework of the political system and more...

Echoing karto, holy shit what a great review. I have implemented some of your ...

I finally decided to produce buggies in my campaign and came across this mechanic. While I'm all for realism, I also think that such a generous reduction in resource costs, given the enormous effectiveness of buggies in early game, is too unbalanced
In patch 3 buggies have been nerfed back to ...

Can we just get a check box on start options. I liked the game without them.

Did you want a slider? Checkboxes? Actual choices? *laughs in VicDesign* Too bad filthy peasant, enjoy the rng.

Those of us who enjoy fighting spiders have to reroll 33% more and ...

Sure, heres a save file and 3 images showcasing the issue.
Ahhh... I found the error. Backported the fix to your save but you will need to redesign a new model.

This is the fate of us Shadow Empire modders, to autistically run socket-fork tests every time we add a line, to ensure it not only doesn't explode on game startup but also doesn't cause AI hang-ups.

You are especially unfortunate since there's no specific guide on planetgen ...

Don't mention it. I don't know if I'll finish the full 100+ hour campaign with your mod, but I can already agree that artillery is probably still not the "god of war" it deserves to be. I've ...

Heh, thats what being away from Shadow Empire for half a year and super tired does to a fibol. I thought to remember it was a 60% rebate originally. But beside that yeah I do think 80% for buggies is to much. Buggies are pretty decent combat units for quite a while, giving them out for mostly free ...

Overall I think these are pretty good changes that make the game more enjoyable and realistic/immersive at the same time, so a huge thank you for this mod! I especially like the increased lethality of artillery (which is currently way too nerfed and unrealistic in the base game imho).

Is it safe to play this mod with 1.26i version on Steam ?

Thanks

I miss Pymous.

A year late, but Catasteroid's mod had new buildable assets in it. Can't explain how he did it though...

Just uploaded a new version of my mod, now featuring some swapped formations and increased early-game customization point generation!

I'd like there to be a lot less "base" formations and more opportunities to customize them.

How do you guys feel about disabling most non-pure formations and just getting a, say, 10x multiplier on customization point ...

It's a bit unrealistic the guy who runs brigade has the same job prestige as the commander of a group army 10x bigger. Same for governors of a size 1 village vs the governor of a size 7 metropolis.

Suggestion:
-OHQ commander job prestige is now 40/60/80 based on formation size (Brigade/Corps/Army ...

The only formations I use are MG Infantry, Armored and Heavy Armor.

On the Discord I'm hearing hatred of formations involving unmotorized/unmechanized infantry with artillery, great love of customized heavy MG/RPG & non-trivial support for heavy grenadier types.

Curious - if you need and can ...

According to my testing, it looks like modding in new OOBs is cursed. Which explains why neither Catasteroid nor Pymous's (deprecated) mods have new OOBs.

However the need for pure walkers (and other useful formations) is surely greater than the 99th variant of unmechanized, unmotorized towed guns ...
