Re: Sergal Faction
And just to prove that no, I haven't abandoned it: I've updated the mod with some fixes.
Back colours are finally fixed. Turns out I needed some extra code from the AI scripts. Medics were given their proper feet and back colours. Soldiers have been repriced to 30, while medics are at 100. Basic Loadout now includes the rockets. Warriors naturally use jetpacks now. Activities now actually show up. The LUA for UL2 and VW now is up to date and includes the rockets.

Re: Sergal Faction
1.9 is missing the Index file, though the index file from 1.8 works with it.

Re: Sergal Faction
My pc has been playing up constantly, but things are now starting to improve after a slight gpu upgrade. It isn't that I don't want to upload it to the workshop, it is just that for varying reasons I'd rather not have it associated to my Steam account. Also what do you mean by hard to play? As in a proper challenge, or that some things just don't work? debruynvince wrote: just sayin', this is a single frame after shooting the shotgun into a heavy's face. yes, that is his head. XD Attachment: one frame. sergal shotgun..JPG Heh well the point of the shotgun is that it is high strength. Finally, an update coming soon depending on how I'm feeling.

Re: Sergal Faction
As in I got absolutely destroyed by dummies in an early game assault...>.> but Meh, Maybe I am just a horrible player. But you start with only the unarmored troops and well, it's a bit hard to stand up to even the lightly armored enemies with them unless you can kill them -really quickly-

Re: Sergal Faction
Ah. Sergals have a major expansion bonus (bases are cheaper? Not sure how it works exactly), but need time to get their military going properly. I could adjust it so that medics are available at the start too. Change the ActUnlockData line from 500 to 0 on the medic and tell me if it makes it easier please. Next update there is going to be a few new weapons (and a device that may really help your soldier survivability!).

Re: Sergal Faction
Just a quick question; If I was to give the soldiers a weak jetpack, would that disrupt the spirit of the entire thing? I feel that some people may avoid running them simply because of that lack of a jetpack.

Re: Sergal Faction
I feel like it'd probably be better to just give the Warrior back its weak jetpack, and give the Scout a longer vision range to differentiate it more from the Warrior.
Soldiers should always be the "bare minimum" cheap horde unit, they'd probably be too strong for the cost if they were more mobile than they are.

Re: Sergal Faction
I need to try the Newest update, but I will say the AI has no clue what to do with a soldier on some maps, If your on a map with lots of steep hills and the like, soldiers, especially in unmapped lands or Void Wanderers, are basically unable to do anything from getting stuck and unable to make it up a hill. I have even gotten unable to get to a place, and had to 'shoot through the ground and bunker' with an assault rifle, just brute force through everything to get the assassination, because I couldn't actually climb the mountain to get to the entry I was going to use during a game of void wanderers.

Re: Sergal Faction
Wow, nice to see so much expansion done for this mod. Glanced at it along while ago, but now I think it will be worth downloading. (Finally, a worthy foe for my Ronin expansion!)
