VariTech mod WIP
kola2134 After Cosmoteer 0.14.5 is out, probably closer to 0.14.6. Currently, 0.14.4 and the 0.14.5 prototypes are too buggy. It's pointless to fix things when it's unclear where the problem is. In its current state it has probably only one logic bug but a bunch of seemingly random & weird game bugs.
I can't wait this!!!
the_guy545 can you make mod with planet battles on the planet

sgtsches People have tried and tried that sort of thing, and there simply isn't a good way to do it at the moment. Any method you take will have lots of relatively large flaws
On planet actions are not possible at the moment and won't be for a long time if not ever. It may be possible to fake it by using a large planet as background but you won't have structures or any kind of terrain elevation or other details.
Well, Abh 0.6.0 does have a part to switch between different masses (see wiki for details for higgs_field_singularity_core). It can be used for anchoring or increase kinetic energy (this is a cheat! ). The way things work an already moving ship cannot stop instantly when changing mass. It would have to use instant reverse thrust which basically mean having an infinitely power thruster which in turn can be abused.
Looks like I'll have to abandon the last version from 3 months ago and start from an earlier version. The reason being the differences between 0.14.5 missile prototype 5 and current 0.14.5 RC2. Visually, it's the targeting feature that's the most difference. But there are other problematic issues that are causing a serious crash right now. Can't get it to work with either versions any more. So I think it's best to backtrack to an earlier version.
I might release the last working version for prototype 5 just for demonstration purposes if there's interest.
My lord... It's amazing!
Is there a public beta or something?

With the latest upgrade of the prototype for Cosmoteer 0.15.1 I've been thinking of moving it to phase 2.
But I've also been pondering about splitting phase 2 tech into another mod. In any case, I would like to use and share Abh's resources for convenience. This is currently, the main problem... about how to do it and all. And due to other game bugs these are holding back the whole progress for all mods involved.
when do you think it will work for the current version cosmoteer?
because what you have done is amazing
