some minor bugs and sme questions after my first 2 games with the mods
Hi

FIrst at all: i rarely use mods, so please be patient if i give too much information. i dont know if i F****ed it up by using hte mods wrong.
secondly: thanky you very much for doing a great job in supporting the game with those patches (mods)!!!


I Use the following mods in this loading priority:
5x (5.0.1)
UCP steam workshop
diverse specials and massive planets 2.5 (5x)
5x bcompatibility mod 5xcpc


but i dont see it in the game version
(55.1.1.2.1.41258w84s)... shouldnt be there a 5x if i use that mod or ist that an outdated information?



to the possible bugs: (mostly minor stuff like wrong text , hopfully)

at character creation (custom race) screen:
1) trading treaties to special ablitites is nearly complete out of the screen at the right side and i do not find a way to scroll there. fortunately mouse over and just try and error for the price works

2) home world special artifatcts and perk category homeworld ressource artifacts..isnt that the same so its doubled?

3) just wierd typing: Perk_category_homeworld_ressource
and
Perk_ category_ pollution_control
and the name of the low/good/high perk

maybe it wasnt transformed correctly (like Homeworld Ressource..instead of perk category and _ )

its the same as in the industrialist perk ant themeklar charcterscreen if you choose them as an enemy.


4) homewolrd size: the name "massive" was invisible at the first character creation
(but now its visible again, i dont know why)

ingame:
5) hyper x condensator: it says "energy weapon size -75%", but from the weaponsheet/blueprint it seems to be reduced by 25% not 75%. Seems to be the minus icon is wrong there if its calculated right. or the minus is right and the calculation is wrong.


6) THe diplomatic screen (when they visit you) has wrong names when those ambassadors talkto you (like: Darloks talk to you about ..., but its written, antarians say...)


7) its not possible to attack the antarans through the dimensionportal after the victory was achieved at round 500.
maybe that intended or i do not find the button to push (flying in the sun/portal) doesnt work.

5) it says "75%", not "-75%"
7) this is intented. When a victory condition is reached, other ones are disabled

Other issues will be solved when you install UCP ( read UCP description for installation details )

Hi Sensei

thanks for the answer (RanDoM too)

I didnt install it the right way it seems.

now i have it manually installed. but now i have UCP and UCP steam in my modlist.. and the 5x mods as listed.



1) now it says ucp 062a at the menu , but nothing about the 5x mods.

2) is it a problem, that ucp (local) and ucp steam workshop are in the modlist and "acitve"?


5x (5.0.1)
UCP (local)
UCP steam workshop
diverse specials and massive planets 2.5 (5x)
5x bcompatibility mod 5xcpc

That's the expected result ;)

Niedersachse_tm 15 Feb, 2021 @ 11:08am 
even if you have 5x?

UCP and 5X are independant. UCP modifies game code, so is able to add its version number in the game menu. 5X is only about config changes for balancing, and doesn't touch any line of game code (and so, is not "able" to add its version in the menu).
About the modlist, yeah, you have twice UCP. The steam workshop is just a zip file, which doesn't do anything to the game. So you may enable/disable it without any effect in game.
So the "real" UCP is in 2 parts:
1) The manual install you did, replacing game files, which means it is not a "classic" mod, and that's why you don't see in the mod list, but you see its version number at the top of game menu, to check if you've installed it well.
2) the UCP (local) mod, which contains the config files (mostly for wordings and some tech stats), used by files you've manually installed.

thanks for the clarification. unfortunately its not just so comfortable like popping it into the mod list and click activate. ;)

btw. is it normal that the hall of fame gets no listings of my victorys after i successfully ended the game? from the points it should be enough.

At the end of the game is the High Score screen popping up?

It should popup with your last game in yellow if you made the scoreboard.

What platform are you running on? If steam do you have that cloud saves turned on? I definitely never tested it with that option.
