Defense Mount Mod
 

Here is a new Defense Mount Mod. It contains only compenhancement.txt file with the new mounts. The idea of this mod is to increase usefulness of Weapon Platforms and Bases (although Bases still need to be placed correctly). Weapon platform mounts have changed, so now they get the same range bonuses as bases (2,4,6). There are also 2 new mount types included:

- Base Point Defense Large, Heavy and Massive mounts that improve range of Point-Defense cannons by 2,4 and 6.

-Weapon Platform Point Defense Large, Heavy and Massive mounts that improve range of Point-Defense cannons by 1,2 and 3.


Note: AI automatically uses all these changes. No other changes are neccesary.

Yes, I made the WP mounts equal to base mounts ages ago. It's only logical and helps the AI to defend planets. Haven't done the PDC mounts, but have considered it. For a planet or a base it probably makes sense. For a ship it would probably waste PDC fire on distant seekers attacking other ships.
