Monofaction Moddified

Description
KNOWN CONFLICT : Cataclystic Expansion adds four factions to this game that I forgot about when i made this mod (i deleted them from my game like two seconds after meeting them in game). So those factions will mess up the chances of Monofaction appearing. You will need to delete them manually from the Cataclystic Expansion mod folder - it is the Construction Strategy file.

Tutorial on deleting Construction Strategies from Cataclystic Expansion :

You need to go to users/yourname/appdata/roaming/airshipsgame/steam/mods/mod-60980992-cataclystic expansion/CE_mod/constructionStrategy and delete the Construction Strategies file in there.

On windows the Appdata folder is hidden for some dumb reason so you can either show hidden folders or do a search for cataclystic expansion ... then you will see it.

What this mod Does :

1) INCREASES CONQUEST DIFFICULTY AND VARIETY by combining all the factions into one giant faction. This DOES NOT mean that you fight one enemy but it does mean that EVERY faction you fight pulls designs from the same list of ALL designs ... it is a very large list.

2) Every design in the game has been modified to use a variety of mods. Please look at the required mods list.

3) There is an optional rebalance folder in the mod that has altered modules for some mods because honestly those modules were broken but cool. Follow the read me and they are your choice to use or not.

PLEASE SET RESEARCH TO THE HIGHEST TIER. I only used high tier designs so if you start at a lower tier it will not work.

Things to expect :
Starting ships are a little wonky ... the AI might get a killer ship so be careful. Defenses are a lot stronger.

Some glitches and things that still need work :

1) Some defenses will change position when battle starts and promptly fall through the ground. I do not entirely understand why this is and i think it connected to particular designs or after they get repaired. So randomly some defenses will fall through the floor. I do not entirely understand it, it might be the buildings are too heavy but they do work on solid ground.

2) Some designs still suck and might need more work

3) The AI is still dumb so they will mess up with some ships or just be dumb but this is true in vanilla also. At least the AI has stronger designs in this mod.

The screen shots show a large random fleet that I fought in Conquest. It was a very good fight.


Please just try this mod out ... I made it mainly because I hate vanilla conquest and got sick of it almost immediately after playing it.

Feel free to copy this mod in your own moddirectory and change anything. Add your own designs, delete mine, anything you want.

It will not let me remove the factions from Cataclystic without removing the entire mod (which i do not want to do since it has many good modules etc.).

Deleting the Construction Strategies from Cataclystic is very simple once you find it .. use your best judgement if you want to save it in a back up. Honestly those 4 factions from Cataclystic just suck.

Once Construction Strategies is gone from Cataclystic you should see that each faction starts with a small defense (green with target on side). They will build more varied defenses later but they all start with same one ... but be warned .. its pretty tough.

But thanks for actually trying this mod out!

I know the problem .... Cataclystic Expansion adds three factions that also suck. Damn it. I forgot that I deleted those factions from the Cataclsystic Expansion in my game (because they suck).

AN EASY FIX IF YOU KNOW HOW MODS WORK is to go into the Cataclsystic Expansion mod from appdata and delete its construction strategies file.

Any thing that adds factions other than the vanilla ones will not eliminate monofaction but it will make the chance of the monofaction appearing lower.

I do not know if there is a way that i can disable a component of another mod through my mod.

The factions from Cataclsystic Expansion really do suck though.

none of them build any defense just more house and farms/mines . Results each game plays like a game of pac man the ai just roams around exchanging villages and towns until they get a large enough stack of that worthless wooden ship
or the almost worthless wooden light speed rocket ship that they just throw them self at you the only one who built any form of ground weapon .. Like i said played a few games with the vanilla version works great . At this moment this one is not working like it should .
2 of those watchful redoubt's from the vanilla mod can wipe out a fleet of 10 without taking any damage internally a fleet of 20 might be able to break one of the turrets not blow it up just break it right before they run out of ammo

Not sure why . played a few games with the vanilla one works great . This one however after 10 loads. i am new to the game so the first mods i installed are the ones required so no other mod conflicts . it seems to not be mono like the first one with random builds it's 3 nation builds.
Nation 1 buildings are houses with a farm attached .ships are 1 wooden armor with 4 worthless grape type cannon it takes 20 of them the full ammo load to destroy 1 gun .
Nation 2 Buildings are houses with a mine and or trench stuff attached . ships are a big wooden armor dual flame thrower 1 large rocket ship with rocket pack that make it go light speed on the map. and last this nation gets rolled by the other 2 pretty fast since it's ship takes 3-4 times longer to build Nation 3 1 neat looking carrier ship i never see in battle only in spy in build before it's owner is rolled and 1 tiny like tank with a rifle . it's buildings are trench items or a wooden tower with a rifle on each side.
