Hey Ryika, just a question, as my brain may be too smooth to comprehend things sometimes;

Regarding the "Important" at the bottom of the mod description, will this fix the apparent bug of the weird promotion issues at the beginning of the game with soldiers and explores etc, where the normal commands do not show up for them etc and its just a bunch of weird icons and the heal icon?

Love the mod by the way, used it every time I played until I couldn't figure out why my units were being weird haha

(re-posted to fix some grammar)

Esc (& closing X) make my games configure a 3rd time so that doesn't work. I need to
1) load a game (any save with intended mods will do),
2) go back to Main Menu
3) load the game with latest auto-save.
Only auto-saves will have mods configured as they should be.

okay so I went to tier 3 and no it is 6 science total. Seems calculation is off regarding the first 2 tiers

Hi, I got a quick question. I am not sure if the specialist bonus from the AU primary ability is scaling correctly. I build the communal laboratory (accessed from the loadout bonus) in the capital and the bonus from the specialist stays on 5 science after going to 'tier2'. I have yet to test with some of the other 'vanilla' buildings. I also got the 'Laborers Guild' from the spacecraft option. So it seems standard, the specialist gives 3 science, now +1 for the AU primary ability and another +1 from LG. After going to tier 2 I'd expect to get 6 science of course. Is this just a conflict between the 2 mods, loadouts and sponsors, or something else?

This seems to work with Anchor Ceti 1.15.

Can you modify your code so that all references to files are lowercase only? You use all combinations of mixtures of all caps, mixed case and lowercase. But the actual filenames are all lowercase. On Windows (and now MacOS by default) this doesn't matter because their OS is case-insensitive but for Linux (and practically every other OS on the planet) it matters. So none of your mods work on Linux unless I go through all your code and everywhere you reference a file convert the names to all lowercase :-(

Ok, thanks for answering :D

No, not possible.

Not possible to have a fix for what's "important" ?

Ok, thx, i've never upload a mod here on Steam but i will found how ^^ I will credit you ofc and put the link from your mods.

I stopped playing the game a long time ago, and don't plan to work on the mods anymore.
If you wish, you can turn the translation into a mod and upload it on the workshop, and I'll link it in the mod description.

Hi Ryika ! Thx for your mods ;-) I'm French and i have personally translate "Awesome Loadout" and "Awesome Sponsors" (for Rising Tide only) in french for my personnal use. Can i give you the files in order to purpose the French Translation from those mods ? I only translate into the xml files ofc.

Some of the loadouts are really unbalanced but fun)

@GojiraTX, load the mod like you would any other in the game. Before you start the game go back to the main menu and do it again. That is what worked for me. Its explained in the “Important” part in the explanation.

I promise you that I did follow the steps exactly.

The workaround should always work though. Make sure you follow the steps correctly.

Sorry dude, but your workaround doesn't work for me and therefore i can't use your mods, which really sucks because they all look great.

Never mind, figured it out. Great mods!!

I apologise for asking this as this may have been explained int he comments already i was just blind to not see it scrolling through for the answer. Can you explain in monkey terms how to rectify the bug in the game so you can see the unit UI with this mod, as i have no idea what the explanation is talking about. Thanks

The solution is in the mod description. The paragraph named "Important!".

Can we get an update for the mods? The UI gets bugged out.

MOD BUGS OUT THE UI

Hello, I am trying to make my own custom loadouts for this game and I can't find any resources at all on how to do it. If anyone has any help to offer it would be greatly appreciated.

Any time I configure files a second time it just disables the mod and I can't use it unless I close and reopen the game but then I can't use the mod poperly cause of the messed up promotion system.

Unexpected - a new updated)

Yep) Sorry, thought they have 4 by default)

Explorers have 2 movement by default, sooo... 4 seems about right?

Cools mod) Mines become much stronger with +1 production bonus.
Also great idea with scattered explores.
But additional movement points for explores don't show in the UI. it still says that they have 4 movement points.

Yeah, that's about it.

You should probably just choose what you're interested in: If you enjoy Beyond Earth as is and just want to expand it with more options, that's what the Awesome Collection is for.

Codex turns it into a very different experience.

Compatibility with other mods is much better in the Awesome Collection.

As far as I get it - "Awesome" mods are more in line with the vanilla but with more interesting stuff, and CODEX is more of a REDUX?
What will you recommend to try first?

Well, there's two sets of the awesome modpack, one for vanilla, and one for rising tide. Mods in each modpack will be compatible with each other. (Some mods are part of both packs, since they work with or without the expansion). The Rising Tide Collection for the modpack can be found at the top of the mod description above.

They are indeed not compatible with Codex. Codex has its own modpack, which can be found at the top of the mod description of each of the Codex Mods. There are a few unofficial Codex Mods created by other people that may or may not be up to date.

Am I right that all "Awesome" mods are completely compatible with each other?
And they not compatible with codex mods?

What about CODEX MODS - are they all compatible with the mods that have "codex" in their names?

Can someone recommend so called modpack to me?

Gotcha, thank you for the quick reply! I just recently started my first CODEX game and it helped revive CIVBE for me, so now l'm looking for anything that's compatible to get the most from my experience.

Short answer: No.

Somewhat longer answer: It might. If it does, then a lot of the tooltips will be wrong, and the game will combine effects from both mods for many of the options. Plus, a lot of the effects will have very unintuitive outcomes.

I wouldn't recommend combining the two.

does this work with CODEX?

Ohh, this is gooood! Thank you!

duh! just read the 'Important' foot note after i wrote my comment. so that behaivior, it is.

having this mod alone active without other it bugs itself out. when i chose combinations and go for planetfall, at times all units got their specifc actions removed, at other times not.
ie;
Mutants
Dark Guild
Blueprint - Workshop

looks a bit overpowerd
not gona lie

As far as I can tell, the mod works perfectly fine. You'll have to go into more detail if you're experiencing problems and want me to help you.

love this mod but it works only occasionally even after loading mods twice. I would like to see an update for this mod

Ah, I see.

That's because you didn't load the mod twice. See the "Important!"-paragraph in the mod description above.

(I've just edited in the "otherwise unit promotions and worker actions will not work properly"-part for additional clarity.)

When I start a game with this mod installed I keep getting a pop-up window in the bottom left asking me to select certain bonuses. I thought this came from starting with Alien Artefacts but no matter what I click on it's always there again the next turn. Not sure what I'm supposed to be doing.

yep been using this with rising tide and other mods. it just matter of checking each mod and it's conflicts with others. u never can have too many loadouts

That's caused by lua errors. I'm not aware of any errors caused by this mod so you're most likely using other, outdated mods - I suggest reading my little guide on how to find lua errors:

http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=569681601
(Point 2)

If you find any errors from other mods you'll have to contact the authors of those mods, or just deactivate them. If you find errors that post my mod, please post the errors here so I can see what's going on.

This mod is great, but it's very finicky, I can hardly have any mod active with this mod without glitching the terrain out. The only mod I knwo of that can would with this mod alone, is Echoes of Earth.

I think I figured it out. Saying to hit ESC after launching the game is confusing. I hit ESC after the mods menu not once the game has launched(which does nothing but bring up the in game menu) and it seem to be working so far.

What exactly do you have to do to load it twice? I played up to turn 366 with no problems and now I can't even go one turn without losing the menu for unit actions, it just says 'out of turns'. I've deleted it and reinstalled and clicked the check on and off in the mods list. Neither did anything.

Best Loadout i seen for Rising tide.
