You need plenty of molectronic components to build NCC, and also synomium parts for TN.
I've figured out the "Will not function above water" bug. Some equipment only works if you have nothing in your other hand. When you do have something, it produces the message above. It is very misleading, "You need both hands to operate this" would have been much better. If the text can't be changed I suggest you remove the mechanic, replacing it with severe aim penalty. As it is now, it doesn't tell the player what they are doing wrong and looks like a bug.
Okay, wrong string used. Know where to look, thanks.

Please make the game harder for Meridian......but on superhuman.

Beginner should be for beginners. Diffulty should increase with every diffĂ­culty level step bei step.

It`s nice to hear, that I have to attack the alien bases. Jet Harpoons and gas cannons won`t help me about that  ;)

But torpedo launchers, heavy gas cannons and vibro blades can.

Another barge problem:
Got Tasoth barge today, that bugger spawned on L0 way below the map. In fact, he doesn't even have walking animation there.
Without Bug hunt would have never found him, hehe.

Also, november 2039 and the aliens are still hell-bent on infiltrating "something" in arctic / antarctic. Got the USO counter up to 2064 now  ;D

Until the balancing has been done, I give xpirates a try. I love this total conversions.  :)

Did you finish "naga city" mission?
Anyway, looks like you have destroyed alien key. Item properties will be fixed, thanks. Here is redacted savegame.

I didn't see  "naga city" mission. I researched alive naga with aquatoid medic. Nagas doesn't appear in my game now, they was in my early game.

Not even one mission? That's odd, but possible. Understood, will fix.

Can compare now XPirates with this:
Both mods are brilliant. But Pirates seems balanced. You can slowly explore the world and get to know its richness. Like that.

XPirates spawns more "terror/incident"-missions.

LuoisdeFuines, will all the respects I would avoid comments like this. It is unfair to compare one mod with the other. Mainly because it is quite clear the difference of hours of effort given in each one of them (and also because both modders are still supporting them). The refinement level of both is quite different and also because the experience they aim to provide can be completely different (and sometimes difficult to leverage between difficulty levels).

In addition, because I am assuming you are scratching the surface of Xpiratez, I believe is the reason you are making this statement. The mod is a completely different beast with plenty supports in the early game and plenty of missions and enemies to keep you off balance in the later. If you complain about the balance of TWoTS+ wait to meet the mercenaries, the tough aquatic missions, the mansions, etc.

I think, you are right. I forgot, that one mod is rather new and the other is rather "old".

@Nord, I apologize from my side.
I removed the post.

It is not a matter of old vs new.

Piratez just takes longer... just wait until mid- or late-game and it will become harder than TWoTS.
