Need the old overlay or a new logo first :)

[el_matarife]

New chicken mod version incoming?

[Saktoth]

Badtargetcategory for subs > hovers? Not onlytargetcategory sub/amph?

I think BA still has the messed up OTA target categories though (there is no category which only submergable things belong to), do fbi/tdf files support multiple onlytargets?

The Bantha shares an explosion with some other things, but i suppose you probably forked it.

[TheFatController]

Bantha explosion got forked (I didn't nerf the Arm Nuke thanks :p).

New chicken mod version incoming?

Yep, later today I hope.

the hllt really should not take longer to build than the (superior) beamer

Known Issue: You cannot resurrect a corpse you've partially reclaimed.

One thing that could really use a change is the EMP resistance of Antinukes.

Considering the massive range of the EMP cruise missle, Cheap EMP and then followup nuking has gotten a bit retarded.

It would be nice if AntiNuke Silos were a bit more EMP resistant, at least enough to remain operational after at least 1 hit.

At least that gives you time to attempt a counterattack before your entire base gets nuked.

Yes I know mobile anti does a fair job of minimizing the risk of EMP strike on your only defense against nuke hits, but they occupy so much time in your T2 factory to be built that its usually not an option when you're trying to keep a ground war going.

[MR.D]

T1 Solars, and Adv solars could use better slope tolerance as well, for such a basic unit, there are alot of maps that make it very difficult to place solars even on relatively flat terrain.

[REVENGE]

Yes buff the Vanguard.

You're crazy.

do fbi/tdf files support multiple onlytargets?

Yes.

[YokoZar]

Arm & Core Submarines given badtargetcategory HOVER (only attack hovercraft if no better targets)

Just to check, did you include Gimps and Jellyfish in this change?

[MR.D]

Something else that would be just awesome for at least 1 release, would be to remove Commander Corpse metal.

Just for 1 release, and watch how much better the pub games get.

It'd just make people commdrop more, cause there'd be no risk of losing the corpse.

[HectorMeyer]

remove Commander Corpse metal.

I recently suggested this, but got no feedback.

There'd be the risk of loosing your commander...and xta has no comm wrecks yet comm drops don't happen often

[BaNa]

add it as a crazy modoption, not a balance change.
