XPiratez / [Submod] Proactive ninjas
« on: January 05, 2024, 09:21:28 am »
This isn't my work; an anonymous user provided this and it's been left forgotten on my hard drive for a long time. I think it's worth pushing it here.

It's a submod, so unpack this into your user/mods directory, launch the game and enable it from the options menu to play it. Adds a couple of mission scripts that allows ninja airfields and outposts to begin spawning on the geoscape before the Pirate/Ninja war is officially declared proper. Compared to a vanilla game, the player would still pursue the typical escalation to encounter ninjas, but will probably see more ninja bases on the geoscape and sooner, as they work towards the war declaration. The submod also allows the player to throttle their progress with escalation, hold short on the war declaration and still have some token ninja base presence.

For those who want more ninja abuse sooner, and for those who only want a ninja-lite experience.

Do note I haven't actually played this and have zero experience with it, only opened it up in a text editor. I don't anticipate the scripts being out of date and broken with current OXCE, but I can't rule it out either. If you're interested, have at.

A tileset to fulfil your Tron/Neuromancer/Frozen Synapse mapping needs.

This is a first attempt at creating .mcd and .pck files and as such I cannot guarantee everything is working as intended. I haven't even worked out how to playtest any maps I create, so consider yourself warned. If you do find something or have any feedback, do let me know either here or contact me on discord, I'll usually be lurking on both X-Piratez and X-Com Files.

I tried and failed at making a mod for a 2x2 radar with global range. Until I work out where the error lies, I'll upload the mod in its entirety in case the maps, routes and base sprites can be used for something else. For now, I'll be sticking to mapping and will be going on to put other random things together.

Note - Obviously don't enable the mod. It won't melt your computer, but it will throw a segfault at you should you try to access the bootypedia entry for the 'tracking station' or try to build the facility in the base management screen until you disable it again.

XPiratez / A thread for little questions
« on: March 05, 2017, 10:26:32 pm »
Every time I have a new gameplay question I'll ask it here instead of making a new thread each time.

Where are nomads found? They were introduced in 0.99F and I don't think I've seen one ingame, 5 game years in. They're not the deep one nomads are they?

Where are shadow orbs found?
