Ultimate Strategies Mod - Suggestions Wanted!

Grandpa Kim · #1 July 30th, 2004, 05:58 AM

The problem is I can't use the mod in most PBW games because the formations are native to the Version being played. Only if the USM mod is being used in the game can you use the USM formations.

Strategies do work perfectly, however I'm using my multiple strats system I talked about a few Posts down the page. It works most wonderfully!

Would you like to submit your custom formations?

If you request that the game use USM before it starts, the custom formations become available.

I don't use USM because I like differant strats, for example. I do not want my ships with {optimal range strat} to chase fighters and get pounded by enemy ships.
I dont want my fighters to just bLast planets I only want Planet Bombers to do this. It is not that hard to form a blockaid just give the ships in and that fleet {dont get hurt) and it needs a pure interception ftr vs ftr strat.

It is cool what you have done, but it is not for me and my style of play. It is easier to make my own and save it to an empire.
Question: In a multiplayer game do ALL the DATA files have to be the same. If one likes USM DefaultStrategies.txt data file, do all players have to have the same file in the group?
