[1.1] Glitter Tech - v1.65

Description:
Glitter tech adds a number of advanced buildings, items and resources to extend gameplay and difficulty in the late game beyond what the game already offers. It is recomended that you start a new world to play the full Glitter Tech experience.

This mod builds upon the existing information in the game that mentions glitter worlds. These worlds are presumably very high tech human societies with advanced production, communication and defense technologies. This mod adds the ability to produce and purchase more advanced items in almost every category. This technology attracts the attention of new factions hired to retrieve those advanced assets by glitter world corporations.

Added: Research for all of the added features above. Because just knowing quantum physics, Plasma spectrography and thermal dynamics doesn't make sense...

Added Titanium Shield
probably something else that I forgot

v0.4
Added Titanium walls, doors, and floors
Added new faction: Commandos
Added new resource: Titanium
Note: factions are created when the WORLD is created (not the colony) so new factions added will not exist in current saves. To experience the Commandos faction you need to either make a new world, or make the same world, using the same seed that your saves use, as this will over ride the factions in current saves and add any new factions. Credits go to Bodog999 for this solution.
Pirates and NPCs other then commandos no longer spawn with advanced gear

v0.3
Added Xenon-Ion Turbine
Added new resource: Magnetic Coil
Added new trader: Black Market Supplier

v0.2
Added APB-1 Pistol
Added APB-1 Rifle
Added APB-1 Projector
Changed a few minor things with EMRG-1

v0.1 First version uploaded


Notice:
After a long wait I have finally gotten the time to update this mod. I'm planning a complete overhaul for this mod and I should hopefully add a ton of new features and rework the crafting systems. The general concept and the weapons or factions will mostly stay the same. If you have any ideas that you want to see in this mod then make a post, I consider them all.

Yep, definitely giving it a try. Though I fear it'll be OP a bit- "Equiped with Electromagnetic barriers which will repluse most kinetic weapons fire."
To beer or not to beer.
That is a laughable question.

That's just the description, there is no actual shielding implemented. After testing it a bit myself I think perhaps it might need to be buffed a bit. It's much rarer then other items, but doesn't improve stats much.

A personal shield absorbing some damage sound fine, just the repelling all sounded bad.
And even though their stats aren't that better, they look cool enough, it's totally worth it.^^

REALLY?!? This is your first mod?......Wow Im looking forward to see what you will do I the future my friend. I love how they look like Spartans to. Keep up the good work

Quote from: faltonico
I truly can't understand that sense of balancing a LOT of modders have, pouring more resources on something doesn't make it more difficult, but more annoying. It is not engaging, even if i'm swimming in silver at late game ¿why to bother?, why all the effort to get there?.

smitj045

First shot with the rail gun, it blew someone's leg off. I love it. The armour looks pretty cool as well.

What are the stats of the rail gun? also please tell me raiders don't spawn with these things......

smitj045

Y'kno, I have one little itty bitty problem with this mod. That being that there's only a sniper-like weapon available. So at first I was going to ask if you could maybe make an assault rifle version or a heavy machine gun. Then I thought, screw it I'll make my own since he says we can do what we want. And thus my own first little modding attempt was created. I'll admit that it's nowhere near as original or great as yours, but I managed to edit the sound files, alter the textures and get everything working. I now have three awesome railguns to play with. a single shot cannon, a three round burst general purpose and a ten round burst suppression weapon. I haven't tested them for balance yet, but would you like me to put them up on this thread?

I'd rather you made separate mod post with just your additions, but it's entirely up to you. That's just how my mod here started, by having a go at decimating some poor modders gun mod.

Yeah, I was certainly going to implement a range of weapons to add to the collection, perhaps the latest in laser weaponry? And maybe a few rail gun turrets, see how I go.

DO raiders spawn with these......Please say no....

I have only edited the xml files for weapons, and haven't had time to test it thoroughly yet. If someone else could post here where they got the weapons from in their playthrough, that would help out.
Otherwise there is only one variable in the xml files related whether traders have the weapon, and another defining the price.

What about the armor? Where do you buy or get that?
