[A11b] Enhanced Defence - 0.19.1 - 07/07/2015 (New Poll)

[Jaxxa]

I will have a new version up soon, probably tomorrow.

It will be changing a few things with how the Shields are working.

Where will be Small / Standard / Fortress and SIF shields.

The SIF Shield will be unchanged and works how it currently does.
The Small / Standard (Previously Basic) Shields will be mostly unchanged.

The Fortress Shield (Previously CRAM) now has the ability to block Direct Fire weapons, but does not have the Fire suppression mode that Small / Standard do. However the Fortress Shield can now counter DropPods. While Shields can not stop DropPods as they to weapon, because of their increased Mass, they can make certain that they cant stop it. It can overload the Avionics system, causing the decent rockets not to fire so that the DropPod slams into the ground at terminal Velocity.

Practically this means that instead of drooping off people they will now hit the ground with a bang.

I enabled the core and shield files but when I place them down they build it and it vanishs.

Are you using the latest version?
Are there any errors in the log?
Did you enable ED-Core before the Shield module?

[Dragoon]

I am using the latest version,yes, and how do I enable the core first?

[Jaxxa]

It should be the order that you enable it in the mod menu, although I would have expected it to give errors if that was the problem.

[Dragoon]

the core is at the top of all the ed stuff but when I enable shields and restart my game I get errors.

[Jaxxa]

The list is always in Alphabetical order. What matters is the order you enabled them in.

Try disabling everything except for the Rimworld "Core", restart the game, Enable ED-Core, Restart the game, enable ed-shield.

[Jaxxa]

New Update, the main new feature is that DropPods can be intercepted now.
You can keep the shield up and stop them droping directly into your base.

The Fortress can "disrupt the avionic systems of DropPods, caulsing failure of their decent rockets and therefore a terminal velocity impact."

I'm sure you downloaded ED from github, didn't you? It doesn't contain required .dll file, check  "ED-Core\Assemblies" and if there is no .dll files - re-download and use version from nexus or mediafire from OP-post.

I am using the mod very good progress with the content, ty. I want to report something, when I enable ED-MortarAmmo, and when I finish building the mortars they dont spawn, also the same with wireless power, maybe another mod is interfering?



And also when I start the game at the menu I see this log error, its about the droppods.

I just did an FAQ (linked from the first post) of how to fix some problems that people are having, hopefully including yours.

Can you please go through this and let me know how you go.

[RoxTaze]

I have some ideas for this mod, but i'm not sure about it's efficiency - they may be too imbalance for early times.. (but helpful later.)

[keeper_247]

how do you make shells? or can you only buy them for weapon traders?
