Released Mods / [CRAFT] Upgraded Skyranger - Guardian
« on: May 16, 2014, 07:59:02 pm »
Greetings everyone!
I made this little mod, I was inspired by the Retaliator (an improved Interceptor) found here https://www.openxcom.com/mod/retaliator. I figured out it would be nice to have an improved Skyranger in addition to the Retaliator. I looked around and didn´t find what I was looking for, so I made one myself! It´s obviously my first OpenXCom mod, so it´s just a modified ruleset and slightly recolored ufopedia image and sprite of the craft when sitting in base. I might try modifying how it looks in battlescape as well, but for now, its just a normal Skyranger when on mission.
You can research it after discovering Alien alloys and UFO Navigation. It´s faster and more durable, while being able to use one weapon. It might be way too good (suggestions welcome) but I think the speed is still rather low and it won´t be really able to catch most UFOs anyway.
Names and ufopedia description are avaiable in English (of course) and Czech.
Here are its stats pasted from the ruleset
Criticism, suggestions, any kind of feedback is welcome. Keep in mind it´s my first mod.
EDIT: Another situational crash fixed.
