A possible QoL feature for the Titan randomization would be to make it more likely to pick a titan type you don't have, or even guaranteed, though I'm not sure how possible that is, I don't know enough about Gladius modding

Along similar lines, maybe some way to turn Hero Items into resources, since they aren't really of any use?

If you're not adding the building that increases your level cap that's a given, Just like your cities can't keep growing if you don't increase the population limit.

If possible I'd increase the Titan variation by a factor of 10 randomizing the entire weapon loadout of every Titan, but when I looked into it that seemed impossible. The limited randomization of the Titans is what I settled on after some experimentation. This way the Titans have clearly different strengths within their class and it is your duty to adapt the scenario.

Mod was a lot of fun and I enjoyed the units. Only problems I had were that my Imperator Tttan counldn't add buildings past level 12 even though it allowed ,me to purchase the upgrade. The other issue is that you cant choose which version of the Titan you get in each class.

Well, you already answered your problem yourself. There are a lot technical limitations in what a mod can achieve and how something can be implemented, you just saw one of them.

im 40 turns into my game and i've maxxed out my build slots 10 turns ago, i know theres a build slot that gives 6 extra levels which i'll test in another game but im stuck at level 12 and cant build anymore

join warmaster titan to the mod plz

Honestly a great mod, very fun to play around with. The piloting thing is great even though it took me a bit of time to figure out.
My only pet peeve is that we re forced to get titans at random. On my first game my first titans were both Mastiff-class, and the moment I tried to make warlords I only got deathbringers.

I would have liked a bit more opportunity to give a chance to each subtype, even more so considering how bad mastiff class were early on when it comes to fighting neutrals because of their powerful single target units. It s kind of frustrating that I found myself stuck into a not-so-diverse comp because of randomness.

可以的

Thank you very much.

Feel free to use the mod as you please, just add a link to the original when uploading your mod.
I'm not the original creator of these models, I just ported them into Gladius.

The mod you created is extremely excellent. My Chinese player friends and I would like to use your model for our own gaming purposes. Could we separately extract the model to create a mod for our own entertainment?

Will this work with the Immersive Unit Scale mod ?

There will be no ordinary heroes. The entire mod is focused on Titans and I've cut anything not Titan related down to a minimum. That this leads to a lack in some aspects of the game is intentional.

Can we get some non princeps based heroes? MOST of the items/artefacts are useless since they cant be used from inside the cargo hold

Which subclass of Titan spawns is now entirely random. The subclass research just cluttered the tech tree and felt rather useless.

This also gives more personality to each individual Titan, if possible I'd increase the randomness of each Titans weapons, having 6 different weapons per arm and 6 different shoulder weapons making dozens of variations possible so that in any given game you'll never have two Titans with the same weapon loadout. But there are limits with how much randomness I can introduce.

Could you explain how to aquire different subtypes of titans after the last update?
It appears to be a random one everytime i summon, i even tried to see if its based of how many times you click on the ability before casting but i have yet to get a reliable way to make the titans i want.

Very interesting concept, definitely going to try it out soon

The resource bonus from outposts is working, you just need to control the outpost not have any unit on or near it. There are limitations to what I could achieve and I found a lot of clunky work arounds for others. But if you see a mechanic in this mod, expect it to work.

Its a cool concept but definitely needs more work. For instance, how do you get the % resource bonuses from outposts? theres nothing like for instance the fortress of redemption that the space marines have

ah, that might explain it, I had them running around forests & just filled them with healing equipment, ty

Are they actually inside a Titan? Princeps are only able to use their abilities from inside a Titan. All of their passive abilities only work on Titans. They are more than useless without Titans to pilot.

Hey there, is anyone else encountering problem with the heroes? I can't seem to be able to use the abilities of any hero unit

Just released a new update that changes the way the subclasses of Titans are acquired. As it this update removes some files you need to resub to this mod for a proper installation.
Without resubbing the mod will work fine, but you'll have a few useless researches cluttering up your Tech-Tree.

Understood, thank you!

The autocannons starting with 0 attacks is intended, it being visible is a limitation of the UI.

Amazing mod!
Autocannons on starting Imperator have 0 attacks, is this intended?

greetings, author. A greate job I must say, I very like this mod. However, I find a small error on the Code, on the path Data\World\Units\AdeptusTitanicus document Headquarters.xml line 197, there is a typo error, you typed the word "conditions" wrong to "conditiosn". But, well, even with this error, the programm seems still work fine. (Please forgive me if I using some wrong words or awkwardly sentence, its not my native language after all.)

I didn't know about the secutari, but looking at them they'd just be reused Skitarii Vanguards and a single basic infantry unit.
The infantry role is already filled with the Astra units. The reason I choose them in the first place was that I didn't want to spend time on infantry for a mod focused on Titans and I wanted multiple generic infantry units. The design of AdMech infantry doesn't provide multiple generic infantry troops. Their units all have very unique design. On the other hand there is nothing more generic than a guardsman with his lasgun, a heavy weapons squad or field artillery, all three are just guardsmen with different weapons.

I know i asked about other titans but what about adding the secutari (the titan guard skitari). they protect titans and mop up those that survive titans.

So. Fucking. Cool.

Now that I know more about the mod I will make a more complete video.

Titan don't benefit from items. They are already powerful enough and adding the buff from items would be too much.

was wondering if titans got any bonuses from there pilots items?

The increased princeps cost for your friend most likely comes from how I had to manually enter the increased cost for additional heroes myself as the base system doesn't work for princeps. Instead the game checks for allied princeps/titans piloted by princeps. And as you already had a few princeps, his found allied princeps. It wasn't possible to check only for your own princeps. So it is first come, first serves with princeps.

There are many such limitations and strange interactions the weirder a mod tries to be.

I'm gonna continue posting here while watching your game.
The AI is very much capable of using all my factions, mostly better than the base game does the base factions, I've put effort into actually making sure the AI uses its faction specific mechanics.
In the case of AI controlled Collegia Titanica, the AI snowballs hard in the early game with many Warhound Titans but falls of in the midgame as it runs on an entirely different custom economy.

Also please check out my other faction mods, they are more in line with Gladius than this one.
The Collegia Titanica was just a hilarious idea I had when I found the Imperator Model. The entire mod was build around the idea "My city has legs!".

Just started watching your video. Honestly it's a huge compliment to see. Exciting to see how your first experience with my work is.
After just the first few minutes I already see a lot that is obvious to me as the developer but confusing to other people.
The landing zone for example is useless, but necessary for the games mechanics. Without an entity declared as city, losing all cities doesn't lose the game. As such the landing zone had to stay in the game.
The reason for the first few levels/buildings being so strange is a balancing issue. Every faction needs to wait till buildings are finished, but with how the Imperator works, your build times are instant, which is why I added those first few pointless levels/buiildings.

I made a Youtube video of your mod! It's really good! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5QpU0sCX_4

I suspect it's only a Ui thing. All of the Imperator Titans weapons scale with its level. Some of them aren't active at the start of the game. I know that one of the weapons active from the start of the game only starts dealing damage on higher levels, most likely the autocannon you mean.
This entire mod was working around such limitations and finding work arounds that work and also feel good to a player.
The arm mounted weapons are the ones that are active from the start. Every other weapon only activates later. This includes some minor guns on the cathedral, the major artillery gun in the center of the cathedral and some flamers on the legs.

Thank you for this awesome mod, however i noticed the autocannon on the imperator titan is doing no damage, is this a bug?

This is an insanely amazing mod i love it so much.
MIght genuinely be the best mod in the workshop

Adding the Titans to other factions wouldn't feel right. Even in their final versions they'd be too weak. The reason I made an entire faction focusing on them is to give them the respect they deserve. A proper Titan would crush anything.
But non of this Titans are at full power, even at the end of the game they are still in their hastened start-up sequence and their reactors are only running at half power.
That's pretty much how I justify their otherwise weak state from a lore perspective.
As part of any other faction they'd be very underwhelming and just another stat stick with no special features.

first off i love the mod. i am a space wolf at heart but hell in this game i am an Adeptus Mechanicus XD
would it be able to make an new mod so the Mechanicus gets the Titans as extra units?
i like playing 1 vs more so for me this mod would be really fun to see how many i could fight in one go

There are no plans for additional Titans. None of them would bring anything new to the table. There are also no progression caps that need to be filled.
The Dire Wolf would need to be slightly stronger than a Warhound, but weaker than a Reaver, there is no slot to be filled between a 12 and 16 upkeep unit.
The Warbrinbger Nemesis Titan would need to an equivalent to the Reaver Titan as it would be only slightly stronger than a Reaver but significantly weaker than a Warlord. The only way to differentiate from a Reaver would be as a Titan Artillery, and while the Warlord already has such a subclass, a super-heavy artillery isn't something other factions could deal with.
The balance of this mod is already plenty strained and a Warmaster, a unit above the Warlord would certainly not help.

are you planing to add the war bringer, warmaster and direwolf to this mod?

Brilliant work...It's just so good to see Titans!

I'm definitely going to check out the ForceOrg stuff.

This is the peakest mod on the planet

Fair enough it's amazing what you've done with this faction to begin with. And its more a 1 time mistakes. Future playthroughs it would be easy to avoid

I'm aware that one can mess up the Imperator Titans buildings. Happened to me during my tests often enough to remember. I never thought of "fixing" this issue and I'm not planing of changing this interaction.

The entire mechanics of the Imperator Titan are only just borderline functioning, several city functions aren't working at all and won't ever. As a player you can't see it, but the Imperator Titan is a giant clunky mess as what I did with this mod was never intended by the developers.

Is it a known issue that you can lvl lock the titan city by accident if you dont get and make the max lvl building before its lvl 12? I didn't see any way to delete a building to make space and fix it. City just stuck at lvl 12 rest of game
