Quick synopsis

This mod introduces the colonial and cylon factions to the Sins of the Fallen universe. Both races will be playable with any of the planets, addons, and races included in Sins of the Fallen including the stock races. Both the colonial and cylon's factions will be balanced against the stock factions to support this approach. 

 

Colonial Fleet

Relying on heavily armored and armed ships the colonial fleet is always on the defense looking for cylon incursions. Lacking shields of any kind Battlestar Point Defense systems are used to intercept incoming weapons and minimize damage to nearby frigates and cruisers supporting the fleet.

Anyone notice the resurrection ships fly backwards? 

And that resurrection hub needs a serious retexture!

Awesome Z... would love to see a new version. Very exciting that you have resurrection up and running... makes the Cylon race very unique. 
End of Cylon_Luvr's quote

It is pretty interesting... We'll call it the U-87 version of resurrection. I'm hoping to tweak it so it's a little easier to hook up a resurrection ship with the hub.

How does it work at the moment? Is it difficult to link the hub to the resurrection ships? 

Also, does the hub link with the light resurrection ships? Or just the capital resurrection ship? 

and will there be a new version released soon?

End of Mord_Sith84's quote

Any resurrection ships in the same planet or adjacent planets to the hub get linked. 

I tried setting it up where the hub would link with all resurrection ships in the current system but the buffs for targetting planets don't work well in the engine (weird hard coded targetting issues).

I have some ideas that might help, but haven't had time to implement them.

It will link with the capital or frigate resurrection ship.

Hey Z. Have finished all the descriptions for research abilities and have emailed the Cylon_English.str and Cylon_stringinfo files to you. 

A few things to note: 

- Changed "Advanced Hybrid" ability for the basestar capital ship to "Overload Hybrid". Is the same as Finest Hour for
the TEC Kol Battleship. Have also changed the icon and have emailed.  
- Not sure what you want the "infiltration" ability to do for the Worldstar... I put "A signal is transmitted that activates Cylon agents aboard targeted ships who attempt to permanently gain control of the enemy vessel."
- Not sure what you had planned for Guardian Class Mk1's ability "Infiltrator", but I've changed it to the same ability as the Advents Revelation Battlecruisers "provoke hysteria" ability, i.e. "Cylon sleeper agents within the targeted planets population are activated who cause damage to the planets infrastructure."
- Not sure if you like this for "Logic Bomb", the Colony loyalist titans ability... |Logic Bomb|Using program backdoors, a powerful logic bomb is activated which completely disables multiple enemy ships at once.

Obviously a number of research abilities are not "attaching" to ships etc. i.e Chimaeia Envoy. I guess this is because you're still working on abilities for Cylons?

 
End of Cylon_Luvr's quote

Hey Z, just played the updated version... it's awesome! Although it looks as though you haven't integrated any of the above changes? 

Also: 

- Sound for frigate factory only comes from one speaker?

- When fighting against the Cylons and you're in battle, if you try to double click on an enemy ships icon to focus on it in the side panel, it wont and just jumps around.

Yeah... I got caught up with Resurrection and didn't merge your string changes and the button. I'll have those in the next build.

Seems to be almost every ship that does it! run a test yourself of a battle against the Cylons and you'll see what I mean. 

A few more small changes: 

- Have emailed you a new sound for the Defense Node
- Sent you a new icon for the "Cylon Boarding Party" for the Worldstar

Also don't forget about my other changes...

You need all three:

Race: Colonial Reb.1.52.24 

Race: Cylon Reb.1.52.24 

Core: Reb.1.52.24 

Edit - You can either delete build 23 or leave it as this will have an entirely new folder structure. You'll see what I mean when you uncompress it

I don't see that happen actually... How many units are are the field? Is it late game lag?

Definitely not late game lag (its a constant for me through the whole game), and there can be any number of units on the field, from 1 unit up to 50. 

See below image... I've clicked on an enemy frigate, but rather than centre on it, it shows the icon right up the top (looks like planet militia)... if you click on any ship from the side menu, its supposed to centre on it isn't it? 

Koobalt or anyone else... does this also happen to you?

When i try to click on militia frigate i get crush.

edit:

I restart the game, and I have no problem when i click on enemy ship my game center on it. The previous crash maybe because i forget to restart after enable the mods. So far no problem on my end. Will write if i find one.

edit2:

Ok, for frigates, fighters, cruiser, buildings it works, but when i try to select via side menu enemy capital ship it select my fighters and camera do nothing....

Ok, troubleshooting done...

In your options for pinning- turn off the show fleet options. When you click on an enemy ship it's showing you what fleet they are in which is shifting the empire tree all around since it's being placed on top ;)

Yeah, I hate that... I'm wanting to write a dashboard to start the mod up. I just need to find a good way to make the GUI that I'm comfortable with supporting.

I have all Cylon_Luvr's stuff in (new icons, sounds, string entries)

I fixed the reversed resurrection ship, added mesh points and fixed the tangent so it lights up correctly in game.

Changed Cylon Rebel Titan from 2 levels to 4 levels for nuclear barrage.

I've also added the galaxyforge icons into the kobol folder.

 

Will probably get another update out later this week. If there is anything else you see let me know.

Cool! 

So for testing in the next version, should I focus upon the research/abilities and see if they work?
