Natty Bumppo's G66 2.0, BETA For PB5.1

[Red Devil]

Yes, each map's value is read in and adjusted.

[Red Devil]

Uploaded a Beta 41:

I rearranged all the folders, so you HAVE to delete the old G66 2.0 folder before installing.

- More DLL tweaks to sunrise/sunset/light cycle.  Added functions for them, too. Values are read in from .TRN file, but some values may not be set correctly, so please let me know if you see any odd lighting.

- Added new patrol units.

- Tweaked AI response when human or AI recyclers are lost.

- Added a form of night vision for Scions and ISDF.

- Added upgrade response for ISDF crigs.

- Increased spin rate of turrets a bit.

- Fixed info for Scouts.

- Changed replacement Factory/Kiln/Forge to a recycler class so that they will have a scrap hold.

- Changed crigs built by same so that they cannot build a Factory.

Windy did not get an av, but rather had some numbers flash on her chat window, like 25.29 over and over again. Then it said "leaving game returning to shell, please wait".
Something like that

[Red Devil]

MIght want to go back to beta for for awhile.  I've been getting Fixme AV's with the latest build.

[Red Devil]

Going to post a test DLL to help track down the Fixme's.  If you guys could, please replace the current one with it.

[hybirdisdf]

Is there any instant g66 maps avaiable? Why not?We may able to enjoy instant g66 maps editor.

[Red Devil]

Nope, not yet.  It'll take a bunch of .cfg changes to add the options pages which i'm not looking forward to, so it'll be awhile for that.

[General BlackDragon]

copy/paste from the MP versions??? 

[Red Devil]

Kinda.

[bb1]

How about big spot-towers using a slightly modified GSH-Tall-assault tower, does nothing but uses gun tower code to pick a nearest target and follow it, emitting an intense, focused, wide beam of light? Dunno, I just like watch towers. Give it rediculous range.

[Red Devil]

I like that.     Been thinking of adding the large GT's to the AIP's, too, so that they are rebuilt.

[bb1]

Maybe a vehicle for night scouting, kind of like the jeep with 4 spotters on top. The lights in BZ2 are, simply put, pathetic and good for almost nothing at their current intensity. Seems like an afterthought or cosmetic gag.
