Forged Alliance is a stand-alone expansion to the critically acclaimed RTS game Supreme Commander. The game adds a brand new alien race, the Seraphims, who have come back from outer space to wreak havoc on humanity. One campaign had been added, and the gameplay of the three existing factions has been significantly reworked.
An update to the Totalveterancy mini-mod. This update corrects a single bug.
Readme File:
TotalVeterancy Mod. (only working with Forged Alliance)
This mod changes the veterancy system to make veterans usefull. Additional it fixes some stacking issues between upgrades and buffs.
There is no more maximum level. Units will get stronger all the time by killing enemys without any limit.
A Unit gains a level after doing 4 times its own value as damage or take 4 times the own health as damage. Taking shield damage is worth less xp.
A units xp value is sqrt(masscost + energycost/200 + buildtime/25) with exception of the commanders who has a lower value.
Mass extractors gain xp over time. (one level all 10 minutes)
Gain per level of all Units:
+10% hp
+10% shield hp
+10% shield regen
+ 5% damage for all weapons
+ 5% RoF for all weapons
+ 2.5% range for all weapons
+ 2.5% speed (movment, turn, acceleration)
+ 2.5% vision, omni, radar range
+10% buildrate
+10% mass and energy production
Additional for ACUs and SCUs (first 5 levels only)
+2 metal/s
+200 energy/s
ACUs and SCUs main weapon now has AoE = 1
All units have an additional starting regeneration based on their hp
0 Values will stay 0.
A Unit without area effect weapon will not gain AoE with veterancy.
Better be carefull with spams now as free veterancy for your enemy may be your end.
To install the mod you need to extract the "TotalVeterancy" folder into your "SupremeCommander-FA\mods\" folder. If it does not exist just create it. ('SupremeCommander-FA' is what ever you have called your forged alliance installation path)
Many thanks to ChirmayaWrongEmail for the work on UI display stuff.

Initial Version.

Version 1.1
-Lifetime Issues Fixed. There are 2 Lifetimes. and Long range weapons used the wrong one.
-Air Speed Fixed. Air units no longer get speed buff on levels. This will avoid misslead for bombers and fighters.
-Lobo issue fixed. I was missing a return value in a projectile function which lead to a lot of issues (most obvious was the lobo)
-Range issue for Fatboy Fixed. Max Pitch range and MuzzleVelocity got increased in thge Fatboy blueprint. Buffing muzzelvelocity by veterancy i do not want to do as a lot of projectile scripts (mainly missiles) change this value during the flight and i may conflict with this.
