Well it's really 40, because you can use the same one on a facility that you use for Something Completely Different (tm) on a component, since they're called for by different AI files. But yes, I was hoping for something along the lines of using the ability's Value 1 to specify what you want...

Oh well, you take what you can get

Spoon, you missed one.

Components:
- Ionic Concussion BLaster has destroyed on use now as well.

Can anyone out there confirm or deny that DevNull 1.7 works with the new patch? I am hosting a few games with it, and would like to upgrade, but want to ensure that the game will work...

thanks,

Alarik

All mods that work with SE4 Version 1.84 will automatically work fine with the new patch.

"automatically?"

Gads, but I'm scared of those words in contexts like this...

Automatically, as in, if the mod worked with 1.84, it will have 0 problems working with 1.91. Install any mod designed for 1.84 into SE4 1.91, and it will work fine. Better, in fact, in many cases, due to improved hard coded AI behavior.

Additionally, MM made sure to keep savegames made with 1.84 compatible with the upgrade to 1.91. So, 1.84 savegames should work fine with 1.91 as well (once the PBW host processes the turn with 1.91, for PBW games).
