[COMPILATION] Final Mod Pack (FMP)

[Solarius Scorch]

So what should I do? Use psiamps to disarm everyone but terrorists but keep them alive so the commander doesn't panic? Up the bravery? Anything else?

I don't know, it seems like a weird problem to me to be honest, but one not related to the FMP. It doesn't make Commanders any more rare or more prone to blow themselves up with Blaster Launchers.

Hope you get lucky. That's what to do.

As the Commander of the RNG I will file a complaint and a request for whoever is responsible for making commanders more panicky than normal be repremanded ASAP.

[Dioxine]

Can't quite get how panicking Commanders make them harder to catch. If anything, it should make them easier to catch, since they drop weapons.

Warboy tinkered something with "panic mode" lately, maybe you should wait till he works out what exactly he's done

FWIW, I've had no issues getting commanders in my current FMP game.  I usually take a "stun everything" approach (I'm loving the elerium mace!), though I'm not sure if that has any effect on morale..

I guess I simply got unlucky. But recently I've tried to make an effort to finish my campaign and it seemed like I was either getting battleships with no usable commnders (read e.g. Mutons) or the commanders blew themselves up or something else killed them. The only alien base I know of is, guess what, Mutons.

I do know this is most likely another case of RNG being bitchy but I'm playing on ironman so every commanderless battleship assault makes me grumpy. I'm in February now, crashed ufo assault count is something like 130  and the urge to ignore other ufo types is strong. But I don't want to risk fscking up.

And while I do realize this suicide problem has little to do with FMP, at least directly, the amount of Raider crews which contain no commanders makes the wait for a say Sectoid battleship even longer. So commanders *are* harder to come by in FMP than in vanilla. Hence the idea that maybe I could do something to increase their survivability.

Try not to do actions that cause panic. Ergo Stun and Mind control.

Get plenty of dart rifles and elerium maces. Maybe a Psi-amp or four, and get them all. Make sure to be covert about it, otherwise blaster bomb risk.

Hey,

Solar, love the mod, good stuff, I just started another play thru after beating piratez and noticed something weird on this play thru.

The Gauss pistol doesn't seem to be affected by range like the other weapons.  I have ufo extender accuracy one, but my Gauss pistol is way OP since it seems to keep its accuracy at almost any range.

I was using latest nightly and latest edition of FMP.  Sadly, I lost the save or I would attach.

Thanks!

I start a new game and i see some fails in tech tree. I can use the ironfist when i dont research e115. I think to use and manufacture them the research is needed. Other i am building the cm and the amp-si without the investigation of e115. May be by the random investigation aquired by interrogation. But i think this is no normal order to get them

OK, I'll have a look at the code a bit later. I'm not on my laptop now...

This is actually intentional; the reasoning is, you don't need to understand exactly how Elerium works to use it, as long as you have the engine. This isn't so with more advanced craft, since they're way more different from Earth planes. (If I added E-115 to the requirements, the Ironfist would quickly be overshadowed by later designs.)

Why would Psi-Amp require Elerium?

[Harald_Gray]

Why would Psi-Amp require Elerium?

I guess because manufacturing Psi-Amps requires Elerium. Otherwise, no idea...

[Solarius Scorch]

Hmmm. Maybe I should change this...

Hey, at least it'll balance out the elerium lasers!

[arrakis69ct]

Yeah. For this. If need the elerium tu build the object. You need know the elemment. I think

I love this mod. Especially the added ufopaedia graphics and other small pictures were very (and pleasantly) surprising, very good quality and in-style. Definitively a must-have mod.

Oh, I see you are working on a new FMP+ mod... have to check out that thread right away.

Thanks! I've been your fan for a long time (assuming you're the same Civilian), so it matters a lot to me.

BTW, I ran into some problems with the MiB, but don't worry - I'm working on it.
