Default Re: Fantasy Empires Mod Discussion

Stryke has been pouring over the data files, and has discovered some bugs (thanks Stryke!!!). A few minor ones, and a couple of major ones. Here is the list:

1) Cannot create ChaosSpawn (drones) (missing "bridge" component)
2) Temple of Light II should require Temple Construction 2 (currently is 1).
3) Mana Matrix III should require Mana Storage 3 (currently is 4)
4) Missing component -- Gargoyle Ward (this makes gargoyles (fighters) nigh invincible, which is bad!
5) Additionally, I want to add "Fighter" as an acceptable target for most spells and weapons.
6) Rune of Gargoyle Control II and III should each require Runecraft I (currently is 3 and 5). This is in addition to the Gargoyle Creation requirements (which are correct)
7) Unused Tech Area - Circle of Cancellation (need to delete it - it was replaced by Unsummon).

The major ones, in my mind, are bugs 1 and 4. The first makes it impossible to use Chaos Spawn (Drones). And the fourth makes gargoyles (fighters) unstoppable.

Our options are:
1) Go ahead and play anyway!
2) Fix the bugs first!

If we go with Option 1, we'll just exclude Drones and Fighters.

If we go with option 2, the game may be delayed (or maybe not -- it shouldn't take more than an hour or two to fix, but it might take some time to get it working on PBW (hopefully faster than Last time, though!)). Maybe a week delay?

Finally, the fix will come in a "patch" form, so you won't have to download the whole mod again, just a few data files (1 Meg, approx).

Opinions???
