HISTORY--
v4
1. Completely Revised seeker mount - realized they were not doing increased damage. Seeker mount is now a Pod that mounts seekers to the hull using less space.
2. Added Computer mounts. (Multiple Computer virus weapons on a ship with multiple Allegiance Subverters is one of the most unbalancing ship designs in the game. These mounts add 3 levels of hardened components to protect a computer with).
General Mod Information:
MountMod-AJC.zip-
Is for new games started in Version 1.78.
Whats in this Mod:
Mount Modification for Base game. No technology changes. However technology will have to be researched to discover the new mounts.
Ships become much tougher in this mod. I compensated by incorporating miniturization into all of the advanced weapon mounts and increasing the damage dealt. To look at the mod look at the CompEnhancement.txt file. This file can be found in:
Space Empires IV\MountMod-AJC\Data\CompEnhancement.txt
Note:
Shield Generator mounts come in two types, the first level will only require you to research level 3 shields before the 1st generation shield mounts come into play for bases, 400+ KT ships and 200+ KT weapon platforms.
Each mount type has unique tech requirements. The technology requirements for the new mounts are spread throughout the tech tree. Here is a breakdown of the tech levels that are required to activate the various stages of the new mounts.
