Hey, figured I'd give you a heads-up to know that the OWB guys have commented out the c_t51b_pa_tech entry and the h_51b_pa_tech entry doesn't appear anywhere in their infantry tech file, leading to a ton of errors in the log, so you should probably delete those entries from support_robots_desisions.txt file.

@misha_archmage Yeah, I was wondering about it since there's a normal vs a motorized that gives higher bonuses. Made me wonder if there would be a build that lets you put more factories on robots/PA so you can have more momentum to stockpile them.
misha_archmage  [author] 18 Nov, 2024 @ 4:09am 
|_| Clyax Thought only about Combat Recon for special forces. Using PA in medical or logistic role is strange. Truck can move more than standard robot or PA.
|_| Clyax 18 Nov, 2024 @ 3:20am 
@misha_archmage Makes sense. While I have you, have you ever thought about having specialized support companies for Logistics, Maintenance, Recon, and Medical? The game has alternatives for motorized versions of these companies which give their buffs like breakthrough/devense and hardness/armor. What if you did that but with PA and robots?

Figuring out how the stats of each equipment type would be the difficult part to get right, especially since the devs said certain companies are hard-coded to give buffs while others depend on the equipment. i still think it would be fun for nations that use primarily Power Armor or Robots instead of having to use normal or motorized.

@|_| Clyax Thank you for comment. I will look about specialized Robots. But this week i will be busy, because Vic 3 update release.
|_| Clyax 17 Nov, 2024 @ 3:50pm 
Love the bonuses Light Support Robot Companies add. I see that you don't have Robot Support Companies like Demo, Fireteam, and Anti-tank. Would you be willing to add these for nations that use primarily robots for fighting?
|_| Clyax 16 Nov, 2024 @ 11:18pm 
Always wanted Robot Support Companies for my New Vegas playthrough. Thank you.

2018 to todays... wow.

@Cloak&Dagger Ok, I will look what can be added after my flu is gone.
Cloak&Dagger 10 Nov, 2023 @ 5:43pm 
Could you add penal battalions, military police, signal companies, and sniper teams, as support options?

Penal would be like double manpower of a regular support company with militia levels of infantry equipment per troop, so like 50 manpower and 40 guns, with almost no defense but good HP and breakthrough.

Military Police would be a suppression boost without needing fancy equipment like dogs or enforcer armor, and also would be used as rear line defense and reserves for the front, so probably just militia cost and combat stats but as a support unit.

Signal companies would be similar to vanilla. Though since OWB has radio equipment and artillery shells, I guess you could go your own way with them and turn them into some sort of indirect fire thing.

Sniper teams would would be cool, but A 2 or 4 man sniper team that costs 40 or 50 guns would be cool to as a low manpower-high equipment option. I guess they would get a bonus to piercing and hard attack due to precision?

@Rewasder Yes , I can made patch.

Could you pls, make compatibility with https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2846171088 ? I get some weird things in the doctrines when both are active

@Rohirrim Thank you for report. I will check this problem.

Im having some sort of issue where the SF Anti-tank platoons do not work. SF Demolitions and SF Fireteams work fine with the little pop up window after choosing it, but for some reason the AT doesnt seem to function. I double checked by disabling all mods as well, but it didnt seem to fix
Sovieticozasz 7 Sep, 2022 @ 4:46am 
@misha_archmage that was incredibly fast. Thank you for the mod and all the work
misha_archmage  [author] 7 Sep, 2022 @ 4:09am 
@Sovieticozasz Now mod should work with implants
misha_archmage  [author] 6 Sep, 2022 @ 12:20pm 
@Sovieticozasz I forgot about implants, because never played Cyber path. I will add it.
Sovieticozasz 6 Sep, 2022 @ 10:34am 
The support PA divisions from this mod dont use cybernetic implants, unlike the base support PA division who does, ¿is that intentional?
misha_archmage  [author] 7 Aug, 2022 @ 12:19pm 
@Sebas Tian 'Support Robot Companies' can be used from the game start. It's only need any robots in stockpile and you can add company in template after that. Technology do not needed, in next update i will make opening by decision.
Sebas Tian 7 Aug, 2022 @ 11:41am 
I have it enabled and the support decisions are working, however the tech tree is still the default. mods i haver enabled are / Old world blues, old world blues radio, OWB mr house OP, Peace deals, Player led peace conferences, OWB Cuba, OWB improved traits, OWB Better Decisions, OWB battlegrounds REATOMIZED!, OWB eagle rock, 50 Construction slots OWB cheap construction, old world blues support robots and more 4.0 / I have tried loading it right after OWB and at the very last.

@Keslak Sorry, I'm not updated mod yet. I will update it today
Keslak 2 Jun, 2022 @ 3:09am 
This mod breaks the robotic research screen since the last OWB update for me at least.

@Admiral York Crescentia Thank you, I will repair it now.
York Crescentia 5 Feb, 2022 @ 9:32am 
This mod has become incompatible with the latest version of OWB as they switched back to the old version of the doctrine tree that's in the research tab instead of the Officer Corps system. If you use this mod, both Air and Naval trees become missing.

Much appreciated!

@misha_archmage
Great mod! Thanks for sharing this one.
Can you also link the division designer mod?
Vaeringjar 7 Jun, 2019 @ 8:18am 
the companies are rather unbalanced imo, they add twice as much armour as adding a normal robot unit would, so imo you should about halve the armor value the support company adds

there's also a technical reason the robot units need manpower, apparently it doesn't work right at less than 20-25 mp per unit
Bzerka 29 Mar, 2018 @ 8:29pm 
This is great, especially playing New Vegas. Robots in the current game are a bit weak because they burnt out so quickly, so having them as support is much more desirable.
Wartank55 19 Mar, 2018 @ 10:37am 
I belive paradox fixed the submod bug. so update soonish.

I'm use Division Designer mod along with OWB. This mod add more support slots.
Gotserved531 28 Feb, 2018 @ 2:11pm 
Haven't played it yet, but this seems like an awesome idea. Hoping to incorporate it into an ongoing game. Also, looks like you increased the support cap, so nice!
misha_archmage  [author] 27 Feb, 2018 @ 2:51am 
Thank you. I'm played mod without whole robots divisions, but desire some support for my infantry's. That's why I made this mod.
Wild Randy 26 Feb, 2018 @ 7:44am 
Genius idea! I love this!!!
