[COMPILATION] Final Mod Pack (FMP)

[Solarius Scorch]

Or maybe closing this thread/linking it to a new one, with addad in the name (from version1.9.4 and up) for instance?

Nah, that would make no sense. But I decided to actually add more info to the first post, hopefully it helps.

Amazing work on this mod, thank you

I have a question though. How do you guys deal with these terror missions? I skipped the first 4 or 5, i'm in september now and i go to try one and there are 5 obliterators. I have all the nuke lasers, the railguns, but no plasmas or blaster bombs. How do you deal with these missions? I tried a few early on with the MiBs and just could not deal with the terror hwp. Using HE grenades is just kinda boring. Is that really the only way to stop these things? Sectopods, and tanks? Now obliterators? I have no idea how i'm supposed to do this. thanks

If you find HE grenades boring, you could spice it up with high explosives and large rockets.  The heavy railgun also does a ton of work against thick armor.  Don't forget that flamethrowers are an option against 2x2 units, dealing an average of 28 damage on each of 8 shots if they all hit and assuming normal incendiary resistance - they are my go-to for rookies vs. cyberdisks.

Thanks for the reply. I meant the explosives when i said HE grenades, since you toss them like grenades, so I've tried that. It just seems extremely difficult. I'm playing on veteran and i went two turns with my whole squad of rail rifles, 2 heavy rails, and 2 heavy nuke lasers, and in two turns i couldn't down an obliterator that was outside my front door. And there were 4 of them in sight when i popped out of the truck. I just don't get how you're supposed to take these things down, them and the tanks and sectopods. My whole squad can't get them down in a single turn. Thanks for the tips, anything else you can think of i'll be glad to hear. I'll try the flamethrower thing when i restart.

I've received a Segmentation Fault error while using this mod pack. I don't know what's causing it, other than maybe a research completing which doesn't have an output. Two different games using this pack, and twice it's happened.

The log file just says it might be something missing, could there be a file missing, maybe?

Is anyone else getting this?

Edit: Might be something to do with researching a Gazer Engineer.

Can be many things... if you attach a save, I'll be able to tell exactly what it is.

[ZephyrWindstar]

This is the save that causes the error.

This is the save that causes the error.

The gazer engineer is trying to give you "STR_OBLITERATOR" for free... which however is not a valid research topic (doesn't exist in the ruleset).
Just remove the gazer from your research until Solarius can fix it...

Weird, I'm sure I've fixed it before.
I'll fix it, sorry.

I have debugged on v1.9.3... not sure what version is used in the save, that's not written anywhere... which is actually something that should be implemented asap. I'll talk to DEVs.
