[KaneNOD]

Hello everyone. I'm KaneNOD and i'm trying to build a mod for this game. I'm new on modding but i'm trying to make my best.

 

Pls, visit this link to find the mod i'm building, subscribe it and leave your feedback about it and help me to make this mod better.

Have a nice week everyone.

 

Good luck and have fun!!!  ;D

There is a lack of description / documentation.

 

Based on screenshots, this mod just gives 100% Accuracy and Efficiency to turrets, quite lazy for my survival gameplay.

There is a lack of description / documentation.

 

Based on screenshots, this mod just gives 100% Accuracy and Efficiency to turrets, quite lazy for my survival gameplay.

 

The accuracy is already in the game right from the start.

 

The 100% of efficiency has been changed according to its rarity.

 

The value of turrets is much higher than normal turrets. To buy one, you need more money, so to buy one you need to spend more.

 

I will change the probability of dropping a HET turret. This will make it harder to find a HET turret.

 

You need to subscribe the mod and test it to give me wa right feedback. Want everyone follow the mod. I make some changes and I need your support to understand how to make this mod better.

 

Gook luck and have fun!  ;)

I would like to read more accurate and detailed description, so that I can imagine what the mod does, and what player does to get such turrets. Could you review it, please?

Need help to create HET ForceGun on my mod. Everything is ok for me, but not understand why the HETForceGun is not working in Turret Factory! Can someone that knows about moding in this game, help me to solve the problem?

I solve the problem. The new version of the game changes the scripts for this turret.

 

    local forceToEnergy = rand:getFloat(1, 4)
    local rechargeTime = force / 1000 * forceToEnergy
--  previously
--  local energyPerSecond = force / 1000 * forceToEnergy
    local shootingTime = rechargeTime * rand:getFloat(0.7, 0.9)
--  previously
--  local increasePerSecond = energyPerSecond * rand:getFloat(0.01, 0.03)
    TurretGenerator.createBatteryChargeCooling(result, rechargeTime, shootingTime)
--  previously
--  TurretGenerator.createContinuousEnergyCooling(result, energyPerSecond, increasePerSecond)
    TurretGenerator.scale(rand, result, WeaponType.ForceGun, tech, 1)
    TurretGenerator.addSpecialties(rand, result, WeaponType.ForceGun)

    result:updateStaticStats()
-- Now the "result" is updated by Statics Stats of the turret
-- previously this line don't exist

 

Now it works fine!  ;D
