Colony Builder - Starship, Flipped!

[Sirbomber]

It's been a long time since we've seen any new mission releases, and while I don't exactly have something "new" for you tonight, I do have a fun twist on a classic!  After being inspired by some Discord conversations, I'd like to present to you all: Plymouth Starship 2 (As Eden) and Eden Starship (As Plymouth)!

As the name suggests, these are just the original missions, but hacked so you're playing as the other colony.  The AI player remains completely unchanged.
As always, if you find any issues please let me know!  I hope you enjoy!

Installation instructions:
Download the attached zip and extract the ColonyFlipped folder and all of its contents to your OPU\maps\ directory.  Launch the game and load the Colony Games menu, and you should see the two new missions in the list!
Update (4/25/25): Fixed an issue where the AI base did not spawn correctly when playing Eden Starship (as Plymouth).

Well first of all thanks for releasing this Colonygames. Nice idea to play this missions as the other faction. Are you maybe also planning to flip the other missions too? Could be interesting to play Plymouth Population as Eden for example. Might be easyer to pull of since the enemy has no base in the other missions so maybe even flip them too?
As for issues? Well i found some problems. First one is this 2 Colonygames dont work on a pc without internet. I install it as instructed but when i want to start one of them this messages pops up  "The procedure entry point "Close Threadpoolwait" was not found in the DLL "Kernel32.dll". As for why i have it on a no i-net pc well my old anti virus software thought the game was malware and always put the gamelaucher in quarantine so i played on my second pc. I have a better anti virus now so no problem with that anymore. Maybe worth telling in case other peolpe have a similar reason. Still strange since this are singleplayer games they should work without i-net. I once downloaded the sandbox-scenario distantnoise from the CustomScenario section you install it the exact same way like this to games and they work just fine. Well both Missons are playable on my i-net pc. Played both on easy mode so far to see if enemy Ai behave as well.
Plymouth Starship 2 works perfect no issues at all. Finally you can use the geysers and magma-vents on the map. Yea as Plymouth you could capture a geo-con and a Eden miner but you cannot turn the geo-con into a thermalplant for some reason and you have to wait for the magmawell-tec to become available.
As for Eden-starship as Plymouth. It is playable but there is a problem with the enemy base. They are missing some Structures. A residence, a agradome, a tokamak and they have NO COMMANDCENTER!!! Where this buildings are supposed to be is empty space now. The convec`s with the structure-kits for topleft and the far right base will still move out at there skripted time and build up, but the mainbase is out of commission. But even then the Ai will stop building up. At some point it wants to make MHD-reactores. But since the mainbase is down the Ai has no rare metall and no storage for it. And because the builorder for the Ai is skripted it will not simply skip the reactors. At this point Ai will simply mine commom ore build vehicles and send them on their way, but otherwise stops doing anything else. When you play the original mission as Eden it has the same behavior if you attack their mainbase and destroy the rare ore smelter before they build the MHD-reactores. But that is something that Sierra probably did wrong. Should have made the buildorder so that the Ai builds the rare ore smelter in other 2 bases first and then the reactors. And still Ai is able to build Panther units even if it has no rara metall in store. Cheaters. At least Ai has to follow the rules of tubeconnection to a CC and have enough power for their structures.
Anyway both missions can be played and finished. Thanks again for releasing some new content for this old but still enjoyable game. And my apologies if i write so long texts i am not used to do things like that so i think i have to fit it all in one go.

Thanks for pointing out the issue with the AI base not spawning!  I've attached an updated download that should fix the issue.
The missions shouldn't need (and don't even try to) connect to the internet, so I doubt that's the issue.  What OS are you using?  I tried building the missions with an older version of the MSVC toolkit, let me know if that lets you run on your other machine.
