UM question

[Skulky]

I have just gotten the new Version of the Ultimate mod. Very cool in general. I wanted to try some of the new racial traits. they didn't seem to have much of anything. I kept plugging away at researchign them but kept falling farther and farther behind. Eventually i got a few things from them, not too great. I tried a game with all techs and only found a few more levels. only 1 or 2 in some cases, 3 or 4 in others. I think the max i got was 6 from one tech. 1500 racial points for one of these? It doesn' seem like a fully developed idea yet.
The new items in the old racial traits make them much better so the added bonus of a few cool components doesn't seem like it is worth it.In the P&N mod (that thread is slowly dying) you have all sorts of overlapping racial traits. Not so here. I think it would be great to improve some of these things. In the P&N thread there were some ideas for Gravity based racial traits. Maybe you could solict the fellow who made those to offer them up to be included in the mod.

Some of the ideas IIRC were PDG (PD gravity) that would do better PD damage at range but coudl have a small zone where it couldn't hit. grav lens that did defense i think... well all of that is at the P&N thread here just look for it.

Overall, a great mod, just seems to missing some stuff or racial is too expensive. I am waiting for someone to do a scenario. And the interface (tons of stuff) is a little daunting.
