Proportions Mod: Multiplayer anyone?

[PsychoTechFreak]

1) No preference on the number of games

2) Fast

3) Mines on. I would rather get some proportions-like restrictions to intelligence projects done, e.g. industrial sabotage, puppet parties, or they could be more expensive

Edit: 2) Better not too fast, I should pick more a kind of "medium"

It seems to me that the problem with making intel projects more expensive, is that it makes them harder to block. This is a problem in Proportions, though, because if targetted on a homeworld, there is no way to limit their effects. In other words, industral sabotage could equate to eliminating an entire cultural center, and puppet parties could take over an entire homeworld, and as far as I know, this is not adjustable in any way for the type of world or planet... unless homeworlds are immune from puppet attacks. Although blocking attacks is usually pretty easy, I am thinking I probably should just remove these attack types.

I think I'm going to remove Communications Mimic too unless there is an outcry or Malfador changes it to do something besides cause an automatic state of war.

Ok Proportions Version 2.0 is ready for players to create their EMP files with.

Snag it at PBW or from the Proportions mod web page.

valkyries uploaded to PBW. Note that this is a pre-release Version with no AI.

Keep your eyes on my website for the first full release=-)

Thanks, Dogscoff. I notice that the zip doesn't specify an extraction folder - I assume we should put it in "/Valkyrie"?

Yeah, that's right. I have had trouble with the proportions mod in this respect, actually: If I put the images in proportions/races/pictures/valkyrie, they work fine. However, I'd like to be able to access them from other mods. Shouldn't I be able to put them in the main (ie non-mod) races/ pictures directory and have proportions access them from there? I've tried it but it doesn't work.

If a mod includes races in its Races folder, then the normal Races folder will be ignored (except to access missing files for a race that has a folder in the mod).
