wait the rcc dose somthing!!! when did this come up!!! no serusly the dang thing hasnt made a differnce for me. i just hold [Ctrl] and click the path for them. so why have it. i may be able to find the code useing Cheat engine. (its the same program that i use to make the trainers for op2) i have already found a way to make every unit invencable(they still have there health go to 275)


as for the cgf it dose alot if you need a temp moral boost. all tho it cost's too much for me to use while under constant attack or when the blight has it in for me. you know, all the time.


what dose the light tower do besides get in the way use up recorces and light up?that is truly the most poinlss building i may (if i can) change its sprite, name ,and its uses so i can add it in to the tek tree as a useful object.


Note: if i am misspelling more then usial it is cause this computer dosen't have ANY form of spellcheck.

Yes, because a memory editor shows skill in .... anything.
Also, get a spellchecker for your browser.
If you're using Internet Explorer, get a different browser. Actually, you could just get Google Toolbar which has a spellcheck.
If you're using Chrome, spellcheck is built-in.
I think FireFox is built in too, but correct me if I'm wrong.
I don't remember other browsers.

IE has had it's problems, but I still like it!

Anyway, I wonder how hard it would be to modify the RCC to make it more useful than it currently is

I think you should open the tek files for op2 and read them it might help get a better idea of what you want. Its nicer to have the research topics split up because it keeps the management of the game there instead of condensing multpul topics into one.

The RCC does work but only to a extent after a while it just fails for some reason.

On  side note dont complain about spelling in the thread or any thread ask them over pm your only adding non topic stuff to the thread.

Just a thought. Have the RCC always seemed to malfunction for you guys, or is it something that happened after unit limit was doubled.. ?

This should be broken off into another thread, but it is an excellent question. I never saw the units revert to their 'dumb' AI while I had a RCC up. I might also not be paying enough attention.

Good point there highlander, it wasn't until AFTER the increase that I noticed it happening.  I don't have my CD here, so I can't test it until this weekend to confirm it.

This would be perfect for stealing teks from others in multi-player.  You could scout-snatch (or whatever you'd prefer to call it) the enimies techs.  This would add a whole new era to the multiplayer gameing stratagies.

Okay, so the CGF is good for space race, midas and resource race (the least played three styles) but in LR and LO, a residence takes less attention than a CGF, but neither is needed because most of the time moral is steady.

 
But what if your like me... I don't like to play morale steady unless the disasters are on (YES i know you guys all will end up never playing with me for this).  I don't like it because it makes the game just plain to easy.

moral steady is mainly used when you're going to be focusing on combat.  Fighting other players requires a LOT of attention.

there was a modded tek file. that involved nano technology but nothing really scientific like the rest of op2.  To be honest it came with its own problems like making certain units over powered or just causing bugs.

I would say dont bother with it but its just a example of how certain things can get out of hand.  So i would say nano technology is a possiblity but it shouldnt make every thing uber.  It only does stuff on a small scale it isnt going to make say a star flare in to the end game button.

The most that nano should do is improve repair rates (justification: nanites can more easily find and repair the microscopic cracks that can lead to structural failure) and MAYBE decrease spider reprograming rate (only by a small ammount)

Well, how about a research that incorporated Nano technology into spiders repair somehow. Rate of repair is probably fine as it is, but how about letting spiders repair vehicles up to 60-75% with this technology ? (Now it's up to 50%)

Could potentially make spider useful for a change..

Hey, Spiders ARE useful! Use them to keep toks active when you can't afford the rare expense of MHDs. Also, Spider+EMP missile is a useful combo against Eden...

Yeah, as for keeping Tok's at a stable level, Spiders are fine. But you need like 3-6 spiders total for that. (And MHD's cost what, 400 rare ? Usually you can afford that)

Spiders + EMP missile is fine against AI and perhaps players who doesn't know how to defend from this, or don't see the spiders coming - meaning you have to get lucky to pull off a decent capture.


In most cases you would be better off with a EMP Missile + a few Supernova lynx.

Spiders + EMP works great on La Corr if you get the timing right.  Since you have a natural choke point, hitting the enemy right there tends to give you a decent capture, but you need a LOT of spiders to get as many as possible.

i will use nano's to make ether medic centers MUCH better or use them to counter act the The Blight. Not to make a super unit(although making scorpions with a larger range Would be nice)

so As long as no super vehicles appear it is okey for this tek

For scorpions how bout low powered optical resonator discharge to increase range

no to the lava flow countering, nanites would just be destroyed.

Scorpions do need something to make them more worthwhile, but they can't be powerful enough to make everyone just start spamming them.

Who said any thing about lava? i do agree tho that any nanite unfortunate enuff to fall into lava would be destroyed. as with the scorpian range how about instead of a 2 space range how about a 4 space range or increase damage by 150% - 200% you know just enuff to make them effective

jcj94 im sorry i didnt see your post. no that tek is the tek that unlocks the opponents tek tree. in other words, the tek is not going to alow you to steal the others tek it leads to a different part of the tek tree

Someone do me a favour and check for shared IP's. ;o

And a nanite wouldn't just "fall in" to lava. We're not talking about a tank here, we're talking about a nanoscopic robot.
