Mod: Conceptual Balance Mod (and summary file) 1.1

[Sombre]

I'm uploading cb complete 1.1 again (my own version, but basically the same) so that people can get to it. This thread has a confusing mess of broken download links.

I found a bug in CB. The Abyssian national spell Inner Furnace works fine in Vanilla (tested this), but with the CB complete 1.1 on, the results differ.

It gives all troops on the battlefield heat(3), even opponents troops. And since the opponents troops don't have Fire resistance, this is quite a killer.

I have a savegame where you can see the bugged Inner Furnace in action..

Hmm, you know this actually almost makes for a more interesting spell, after I fix this I may think about adding a new spell with that intentional effect.

I think that some minor change could maybe be made to EA Agartha, so they could dispose of a less crappy elite(maybe better att and def ?). For the moment, with the raise in cost of troglodites (which seems normal), I mostly use indeps, and, because most of them have been tweaked, I find agartha less efficient than before,what is quite odd.(they weren't top notch before, but maybe there is something I missed)
In all other aspects, this mod seems to me unavoidable.(I do no more play vanilla games)

Right, the 3.10 patch raises some problems. So far the two I've spotted with the help of lch (cheers buddy) are due to pointless annoying name changes which no doubt resulted from the nitpick kings and their 'typo fix' stuff.

First.

The next cbm has to replace #selectarmor "light weight scale mail" with, get this,..

#selectarmor "lightweight scale mail"

That was actually causing cbm to not work at all with 3.10. Nice huh?

Next up,

#selectspell "Claws of Cocytus" needs to be changed to

#selectspell "Claws of Kokytos"

Very, very silly.

Those two are the only changes that break things between 3.08 and 3.10 in mods (unless someone has made the mistake of editing certain void monsters and the retiarius by their monster names instead of number). The biggest problem with the whole armor and spell issues is that they are not selectable by ID number as they properly should be. Well, spells are, afaik, but there is no spell DB yet. If you could select and assign armor by ID number (like you can do with weapons) instead of having to use the names, there would be no problems at all with those.

People have at various points *****ed about various typos, spelling errors and other such things in the game (I'm not the only one who has noticed such things), so once they were being looked at in a coherent fashion, it made no sense at all not to harmonize all spellings across the board. I have to shoulder a fair portion of the blame and I apologize for the inconvenience, but I do not regret those changes coming about.
