[MOD] diversityMod [V0.3]

[Istarune]

I have tried to go through and remove all ion missiles, and the "burst last III" (Burst_Laser_4 in the mod file) from Alextfish's edit, restoring "Burst Laser IV" to the original "Burst Laser III" with 5 shots, power 4 (Still referenced as Burst_Laser_5 in the mod file) . I will miss it somewhat, I liked the fake burst laser 3, but I also want to play the game the way it was originally balanced.

This should be the last change needed to bring this to a purely graphical mod, I've double checked myself, if there are any errors let me know and I will edit it again.

This is my small (very small) contribution to a fantastic game, I hope everyone finds it useful.

UPDATE 11-14: Restored Burst Laser II rarity to 4. Restored Burst Laser III flavor text.

There are a few little things that I noticed were different. In the description of the Burst mk. 3, it now says "deadly" instead of "impressive". Also, the burst laser mk. 2 is 5 scrap cheaper in this version, and the rarity is different. Apart from that, everything else seemed right though.

Good catch! I've corrected the file and re-uploaded it. URL should be the same.

Thanks for getting round to that when I didn't. I've been a bit busy.

Hey you did most of the work I just did one tiny bit.

I just wanted to stop by and say "thank you" for creating this mod - I familiarized myself with modding FTL by reading through this mod's files and images.

In fact, I started writing "Sonata" on top of this mod - it took me a bit to remove your work! I've probably stared at your upgraded weapons more than the vanilla ones. It's jarring.

Keep it up!

Does this mod change the enemies maximum shields, because I ran into this: A autoscout with 5 shields at last stand. Is that supposed to happen or a bug?

5 Shield ships exist in the game originally, they are just really rare. I highly doubt this mod changed anything regarding that.

Hi, Istarune. I'm running your version of this mod and I just noticed I got hit twice during the same battle by a single shot missile launcher that did 4 damage to my shield room *without breaching it*.

I know a Breach Missile does 4 damage to any room when it hits, but hitting twice without causing a breach is a little strange.

Maybe I got lucky considering that the Breach Missile has a high chance to cause a breach. It's a possibility.

Or is it possible that this has something to do with any modification on the stats associated with this particular weapon during the making of this mod?

[VanguardOfValor]

I can say for sure that when I went through looking for little errors, none of the other numbers were off. Sounds to me like you just had that 1% chance of not getting a breach two missiles in a row.
