v3.0 Notes
All the changes from v2.4.1 to v3.0 involve the Missile Defense System and unification with the Patriot Missile Defense System code. Below is a list of the common code shared between the two mods.

  • New uniform code, more compatible with all classes and less suseptible to new game patches, other peoples mods or changes to any of my other mods that share this code.
  • Missile Batteries and Mobile Missile Rovers now shoot Enemies, Meteors and Dust Devils.
  • Patriot Rovers have a new distinguishing HUD Icon**
  • Patriot Rovers now deploy one hex away from first Missile Defense Battery. No need to stay zoomed in or wait.
  • Patriot Rover move 2.5x faster than enemy rovers, to chase them down.
  • All destroyed rovers (even regular rovers, transports and explorers) Show a Destroyed Overlay HUD Icon if destroyed by an enemy and cant be rebuilt.
  • Auto detect new game and sets Legacy Code Options with persistence. See notes on Whats New/Legacy Mode here -=> Notes
  • Auto detects save game with Missile Battery and rovers built.
  • Persistently keeps all Mod Config settings in save game. (Except Marsgate Detection). New games start with Legacy Code off and mod defaults.
  • Dynamically changing Patriot Rover count in Mod Config to more rovers autmatically gives you the ability to build more on next Missle Battery Build (Up to maximum).
  • Added a settable polling delay to lower the CPU load from the targeting system. Helps with slow CPU's and big colonies.
  • New Mod Config options
  • Legacy code playable - Have older rovers or the previous PMS? You can run legacy code until you update.
  • Spawn an enemy on command from Mod Config Menu - Great for testing defenses.
  • Fixed - can now get more rovers up to max rovers if you salvaged existing ones.**
  • Fixed - Missile Battery now shoots at enemy rovers**
  • Fixed - Dome Collision, no more spawning rovers inside a dome**
  • Fixed - Blue Ring protection zone on rover not being dismissed.**
  • Interactes with Game Rules - Attack The Colony**
  • Compatible with NASA Mission Sponsor**
  • Various code improvements, non-legacy code.
** New 3.0 Code only
