MicroTech Mod

TurboTwinky28

lord_drageon it is very outdated. It is not compatible with 0.14.0 and the creator no longer works on this mod

Bassgun

Hello people, i'm BACK (sorry, i've been lacking time because life stuff), and since the original creator of Microtech seems to no longer be active at all for even longer than me, I will try to update the mod myself one more time, I don't promise Anything since i've only updated it once and i'm still trying to get a grasp of what needs to be changed in the codes (i'm still a scrub with codes)

Holeee crap. On a whim I launched Cosmoteer to find that in my absence it had gone from 0.12.12 to 0.14.3. Out of curiosity and guilt (mostly guilt) I hopped on the forum and searched my mod to find a substantial amount of hits (at least for me--this is the first time I've ever made, never mind released, a mod). If someone hasn't already, I'll update the mod, but it'll definitely take awhile. I have no idea what changes were made and how to make it compatible again. I can't promise I'll stick around, but from now on I am marking the 1st of every month on my calendar to check the forum. Sorry to anyone who was using the mod or wanted to after it went outdated.

Microbot024 woooow. i never thought you would come back

Microbot024

RedAndCosmoteer I have returned! Maybe I'll talk to bassgun, see what he got held up on. Thanks for the heads up!

Microbot024

Yeahhhh... Sorry about the sudden disappearance...

RedAndCosmoteer

Microbot024 Another heads up: The engine and weapons code have completely changed. There's a dual laser blaster, a modular railgun, and there's a thing called engine rooms that buff your thrusters by 75%.
Oh, a 3x3 thruster now.

As well as multi-directional thrusters (though they are 1x1), new command interfaces and I think the ENTIRE code structure was actually RE-WRITTEN, so it's not just weapons and engines.

You really have your work cut out for you though - in a good way. There are two mod-upgrading programs made by Walt himself to upgrade your mod from 0.xx.x to 0.14.0 and then from 0.14.0 to 0.14.2, where you can figure the rest out by yourself. Good luck!

Thanks! I played a bit of Cosmoteer a couple hours ago to see what had changed. I'll try to get the current mod up to date first, then work on adding more things.

@Bassgun
Hey! I heard you tried to update my mod. (Thanks for trying BTW.) How far did you get? Should I start from scratch, or do you have some things partially fixed?

RedAndCosmoteer

Microbot024 Bassgun got really far but was stumped by an error about something in the code that was not supposed to be in game that caused a crash.

Microbot024

RedAndCosmoteer
Ouch. I guess I'll start working on it myself and compare if he shares what he finished.

Microbot024 Microbot?

Are you still alive?
Have you made any progress?
