Vasari Starbase build/uprgade speed mod?

from Sins Forums

Hey all. Tried my hand at creating an offensive Vasari starbase the other day, and found that, for a 10 minute (or close to it) investment, it wasn't giving enough satisfaction. I was just wondering if there was a way to change the build speed increase on the technology "assault deployment".

 

I just use this game to have a good time, and I'm thinking that at 10 times the build and upgrade speed, the Vasari starbase would give me that }:) . I just need to know what file in the referencedata governs assault deployment, and what value in that file I need to change.

 

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

look in the file RESEARCHSUBJECT_STARBASEENEMYORBITBODYBUILDRATE.entity

the lines you are looking for are

researchModifier
    modifierType "StarBaseBuildRateAtEnemyOrbitBodyAdjustment"
    baseValue 0.000000
    perLevelValue 0.250000
artifactPicture ""

at the end of the file, the bolded number is the build speed modifier for vasari of starbases in enemy gw research

you just have to create a mod folder, put the entity inside a gameinfo folder under the mod, then alter the number which I think might be percentage buildrate increase, copy the entity.manifest to the mod folder, and play

Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be working. Not sure why. The text readout of the tech tree is the same as usual, 50%, and the bases don't appear to be building any faster than before. Gonna keep messing with it.

 

Edit: Argh. Now it's even worse. The game minidumps when I start it up, even before the Ironclad and Entrenchment logos pop up
