Who did Skywars? I recall playing it to the death with the creator, iirc something with -rat- in it, but just cant recall his full nick ...
I'm also wondering if he adapted his code to prevent the MW-bugs that G66 also suffered from for a while (like AI ships skipping forward and backward).

It has Rat Bats, and Colonial Viper that fly. A few other ships like the Cougar (hover tank), Fuzzy( Mech warrior that jumps) with a few weapons like flamethrower, flash beam, force etc. Has anti-air towers and the factory upgrades ships by itself, you can't use the factory console. Which I need to report to RD that his update hasn't let the ai update the ships and you can't use the factory, right now. I'm sure he can fix that. I've never seen these ships do the warping thing if that is what you are asking.
We play ISDF vs Scion on Rend a lot. Start out with nothing but a scout for real action.

Uploaded a new Skywars zip

+ made units customizable in the ISDF Factory
+ added some Scion vs Scion AIP for Dunes and Rend, BUT they may cause missing pathpoint console errors to pop up
+ fixed some bad pathpoints in some AIP's

let me know if you get any missing pathpoint errors. original author wasn't consistent in pathpoint names in maps or in AIP's.

I know whats in Axe, I was around (and very active) when this was developed. Better said, I was one of the first to download the initial package (which at the time started out as just a dll/map-mod).
Its just that I cant recall who made it, I recall playing with him a lot and that his nick had -rat- (or somesuch) in his name, but not the exact nickname ... which now bothers me :)

VSR (Vet Strat Recycler) is a strat-oriented Recycler Variant for 1.3 that provides the following features.
  • Improvement of seldom-used weapons (ie: pulse stab, pummel, tag, prox mines, etc) and ships (lancer, sentry), making them now worth considering and adapted to their own strategies
  • Balancing which makes things more convenient for competitive play (ie: 3 second pods, empty scouts build faster, upgraded extractors are renamed to 'extractor+', recyclers can be packed up and many, many, more things.)
  • Improved "1.2 Style ships" available for use which allow for improved airborne handling and maneuverability
  • New ST and DM maps.
  • VSR can be used as a substitute for the stock 1.3 recycler in MPI games (though perhaps not recommended for maps that have an 'insane' recycler variant enabled by default).
  • Users who are running VSR can join and host non-VSR games w/o getting bad assets (although people who are not running VSR will get bad assets if the VSR modes are turned on).
Development Forum (the newest pre-releases are posted here)

Future versions of VSR may include improvements to the shell, and I am considering making the Hadeans a playable, and balanced race. Please look at the release notes of the latest posted pre-release for instructions (as host) to enable VSR starting rats and VSR starting ships on stock maps.

ZA, you should indeed make a version of the Hadeans fit for VSR, but it should lay on top of FE or some such. At least, that is how I figure.

I haven't had the time to work on that mod :-/, or any mod, or testing, or anything really.
