I just checked the entire history of the BuffChargedMissilesLightSelf.entity file. It has always only affected only strikecraft. So no, it was not nerfed.

Nice AI changes.  Was pretty stupid when Mass Disorintation fired on the first ship in range, mass disorintating...one ship.

nice they made 2 new updates for it with in 2 weeks i wish in the next update they would make it so the ships could jump any where on the map instead of just being able to go in lines to the other planets like have random ambushes on the way to planets from pirates or other players.

there was a mod for this back in sins 1.04/5 that I think was called phase scouts that allowed the scouts to create phasenodes at each GW so that your ships could phasejump from any planet that you had scouted to any planet that you had scouted in the same star system.

I have translated it up to entrenchment for my own use

i foud AOE problem. But devs says its ok despite of  personal expirience of player who did 1500+ games and another with 1000+ .  bouth playing mainly vasari and using sentiels heawy.
 

 

I find it supprising that players who rely hewily on sentiels would complain about them being nurfed.

You'll find it on Impulse just like you did the patch.  Please let folks know if you're new to Sins and you don't know what I'm talking about when I say "Impulse".  It's a program Stardock created, like Steam, which you use to order the expansions and to download patches and hotfix patches.

I'm actually amazed nobody seems to have caught it yet, but the Kol battleship's model is faulty. On its left side, in front of the triple gun turrets, you can actually see through.

I can't confirm that one - I had really good look at the model and all I can see there are the fighter launch bays is that what you are refering too?

Opposite side, where the turrets are. A slice of the model is missing.

This is also present inside of the beam arrays on the front, but that's something very easily dismissable.

Yep - your right, found it.

If somebody could post a screen shot it might help.  It would be nice if they fixed it as its one of the best ship designs in the game - guess we would have to wait and see though.

So how do I get the previous version, 1.03, on impulse?  The mod I want to play doesn't work with 1.04 yet, and Impulse won't give me a choice on which version to install.

So what happens if a specific version doesn't work on someone's computer then?  They're just screwed?  That makes all of no sense, it's not that hard to make the different versions available.

Nowhere on Impulse can I find the newest patch 1.181.  What's the deal? Anyone have a link?
