v1.7 - A very brotherly update

• Changed the update rate on allybooster.lua from 60 seconds to 2 seconds.
  
• allybooster.lua now accepts a table argument containing values.
  
• The following parameters on allybooster.lua can be edited:
  
  • _HealWhenBoosting - this will heal the boosted ally. Pass a true/false value.
    
  • _HealPctWhenBoosting - this will heal the boosted ally by a % value. For example, 0.33 would heal the boosted ally for 33% of their hull.
    
  • _BoostCycle - this will determine how often an ally is boosted. Measured in seconds. Defaults to 60 seconds.
• avenger.lua now accepts a table argument containing values.
  
• The following parameters on avenger.lua can be edited:
  
  • _Multiplier - this will determine how much the avenging ship's damage is multiplied when a nearby ally is killed. Defaults to 1.2
• lasersniper.lua now accepts the _UseEntityDamageMult param - this will use the entity's damage multiplier when calculating the amount of damage dealt per frame.
  
• overdrive.lua has been updated to use the _Multiplier from avenger.lua whenever avenger.lua buffs it.
  
• stationsiegegun.lua now accepts the _UseEntityDamageMult param - this will use the entity's damage multiplier when calcuating the amount of damage the outbound shot deals.
  
• Added tankemspecial.lua
  
  • No, I'm not elaborating on what it does.
    
  • Have fun :)
• torpedoslammer.lua now accepts the _UseEntityDamageMult param - this will use the entity's damage multiplier when calculating the amount of damage the spawned torpedo deals.
  
• Adds esccdbg functions to test allybooster - comes with a healing version as well.

v1.5.1

• Updates the Relentless Hellcat's laser weapons to account for the 2.0 laser bugfix.
  
• Turns off some debug values that had been published.

v1.5 - Tactical shifts, Executioners, and the 2.0 update

• Now 2.0 compatible!
  
• All of the bosses that have been removed from Increasing Threat have been added to Extra Ship Classes Core.
  
• Added a few debug options to esccdbg
  
• Changes how the suite of Executioner weapons work behind the scenes. Should be the same end result, but the code is a little different.
  
• Jump animations for various special abilities (Eternal, etc.) should no longer cause client errors on version 2.0

v1.4.5 Secret Bomber Updates

• Makes some edits to meathookt2.lua. It is not ready for general use yet.

• Adds the bomber to the pirate generator and async pirate generator. The bomber is a size 6 pirate that comes with a single set of artillery weapons and a siege gun script.
  
• Adds eventscheduler.lua. All this does is provide a hook for extracting event interdictions for... reasons. Yes.
  
• Removes some unused code from defensecontroller.lua

v1.4.4 - Defense Controller Bugfix

• Adds meathook.lua

v1.4 - Laser Tag & Other updates

• Implements lasersniper.lua - this script will periodically fire an IDHTX-style laser at the player.

  • asyncshipgenerator.lua
    
  • pirategenerator.lua
    
  • shipgenerator.lua
