Spoiler: show

just gonna post my genneral thoughts some of which i posted on the wishthread that seems to have been closed:

- buff titans so they are a bit viable in t3 battles or as a good dropoption

- reballance percivals so that they are more tank than damagedealer while keeping high alphadmg but lower dps (at least lower RoF)

- make firebeetles viable for more general tasks like snipe buildings or antiarmy defence than pure commsnipeoption

- add more AoE to mongoose and hoplite maybe at the expense of damage

- what about t1 assaultbots being a bit more involved in the t1 phase because outside of engineerhunts you don´t see them at all, i wouldn´t mind giving the seraphim a
actual t1 assaultbot

- generally i digged the janus changes so maybe keep those

controversial thought:

- make mexxes cost no power because a powerloss is already punishing enough on production a.o. imo ..

.. my general problem is still that people don´t use the full unitepool of their faction ..
in too many games you see exclusively assaultunits where utilyunits or firesupportunits don´t get used at all .. and you can give me videos on these as much as you like but it does´t change that those are the exception than the rule from what i see most of the time ...

The version number is only so high because we made the version in the name the same as in the mod_info, in reality its probably about v7 now. No further changes except faf change reversals and bugfixes, further changes to come once i am motivated enough. ( viewtopic.php?p=155116#p155116 tells you what the further versions did, one more patch since then was uploaded which was a typo fix in cost of sera t3 bomber)

the changelog in the first post stops at v3 but your mod is already at v15
is there some info about what changed in the other versions or is it just bugfixing/reverting additional faf changes?

Why remove the intel after death from the t1 sera scout plane?

Hi all,

Not sure if this is the right place for a bug report. Please check out replay 6908893. around 15-17 minutes, I put my acu and a mobile stealth generator on at transport and try to go behind enemy's base. i'm never in visual range while on the transport. there's no omni. i don't run out of power, yet somehow my transport appears to the enemy. is it a bug?

Thanks

nah this is a random thread about a mod this isn't where you report bugs for vanilla FAF.

it's over here : viewforum.php?f=3

I took a look at your replay, and bhedit wasnt enabled.

But to answer why your acu was seen, it seems it flew a bit too close to the t2 navy fac and those engies, so they got direct vision on it during that short period. It wasnt omni vision but direct vision.

my best guess is that the omni range on some acus is actually a lot farther than it's supposed to be.

Thanks for the report, I will check the replay out. A stealthed trans is supposed to be hidden indeed. If it is bugged, it shall be fixed.

Edit: Can you upload the replay? I cant find it in the vault and when testing stealth on trans on my own it appeared to work.

After reading your changelog, I can quantifiably tell you that the current patch has a far more robust playability/balance.

Only thing I see that is semi interesting is the old bomber, which was fun, but it is still actually OP and underutilized.

The ras change was especially good for making power a strategic resource that can actually be attacked. All around I have no idea why you are wasting your time on this, lol.
