How about all lightshifted units are translucent to the player? I sent a boltstriker into a group of 3 lv1s and it turned out it was a lightshifter... Ouch. 10 gold down the drain.<br> <br> EDIT 2: And, when the player attacks a lightshifter, well, I was kinda hoping for it to kinda de-cloak and be seen as the glowing load of bricks it is.<br> <br> EDIT 3: And, the stats all need work XD. I played against Default and got owned every time. The units maybe could be a bit cheaper, to heighten the "robot drone cannon fodder" thing. Or we could just make them a bit stronger.<br> <br> EDIT 4: With the Oculus line, I meant for him to have one attack of 9 at first and then 3 attacks of whatever I came up with once he upgrades. Not 9 attacks that each deal 1, XD. We need some major rebalancing of stats... And I can only be the Steel Sparkgazer for leader? What about Steel Bladewhirler and Steel Vector (though I admit Steel Vector looks particularily puny for a Lv2 unit.

I'm not responsible for WML and the programming in general, only for ideas and graphics... Ask melinath when he's here. If he did though, I suggest he remove the tag (though I don't really know what it is).<br> <br> Also, Sound Effects. Just the usual stuff, like Dark Adept's bolt sound for the Oculus line, and a generic slashing sound from one of the loyalist units will do for all slashing abilities... Hopefully the Lightshifter can also play a "whoosh" or a "shoomp" sound when it shifts or is unshifted by an attack.<br> <br> EDIT:<br> @Turuk: Oh. That's why there aren't snazzy custom graphics on the addons list. Hmm... Can't one of you magical programmers make the game so that we can use our own custom images for that little image besides our addon?<br> <br> EDIT 2: All Steelhive units need to have 20% defense on coastal reef and river ford. They now have 50% on river ford but only 30% on sandy which is not what I intended.<br> <br> EDIT 3: Some of the Slasher Line's graphics looks like they're floating. Maybe they should be moved down a bit. Also, all Oculus line units fly, so they shouldn't appear submerged in swamp and water areas.<br> <br> EDIT again:<br> <br> OK.

I really don't mind when we get this done, it's not like we're doing mainline and have deadlines to catch. Take all the breaks you want. I never actually expected to get a faction made anyways, XD.<br> <br> EDIT:<br> <br> Wow, love the naming system you came up with. It was actually similar to what I was planning.<br> <br> EDIT: Sound effects, too? You're awesome, Melinath. Still, I just realized that the Amniotes and Choriotes are way overpowered unless attacked by Berserk skills... I mean, like a full heal almost every turn? Way overpowered. We need to reduce their health and increase the XP needed for AMLA.<br> <br> ANOTHER EDIT: Dang, the Cybercones are more useful than I anticipated. They turn the 11-1 Jolt into a 16-1 Jolt. So useful. And to think I always went with Elvish Hero when an Elvish Fighter upgrades...<br> <br> MOAR EDIT: Yeah, Amniotes are way too overpowered. Make the Amniote Upgrade XP 3 and the Choriote AMLA XP 12. I tried to kill a choriote with a bladewhirler, and I lost. The choriote then upgraded 6 times (wtf) due to ots ungodly low AMLA XP requirements and that the Bladewhirler gave 12 XP. <br> <br> Also, the AI is too stupid to learn to ignore the almost-invulnerable Choriotes, so I ended up with 6 Steel Vorpals not being able to win due to two Choriotes in the way; every time one attacked the Choriotes upgrades, fullheal included, and stays there like a stupid rock...<br> <br> So the idea didn't work out the way I hoped. More stat tweaking is needed. The other units seem more balanced though.<br> <br> ONE LAST EDIT PLZ:<br> Make the Cybercone's Battery Pulse a move that he can use to attack... Stupid AI tries to attack with a Cybercone and gets owned. If it can't attack it's just an Amniote that has leadership.</div> <div id="sig373920" class="signature"><a href="http://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=30560" class="postlink">UtBS revision spriting</a>.<br> <a href="http://www.wesnoth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=26185" class="postlink">To The Zeromobile!</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="back2top"> <a href="#top" class="top" title="Top"> <i class="icon fa-chevron-circle-up fa-fw icon-gray" aria-hidden="true"></i> <span class="sr-only">Top</span> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div id="p373935" class="post has-profile bg1"> <div class="inner"> <dl class="postprofile" id="profile373935"> <dt class="no-profile-rank has-avatar"> <div class="avatar-container"> <a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=116646&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9" class="avatar"><img class="avatar" src="./download/file.php?avatar=116646_1243513100.png" width="72" height="72" alt="User avatar" /></a> </div> <a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=116646&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9" class="username">melinath</a> </dt> <dd class="profile-posts"><strong>Posts:</strong> <a href="./search.php?author_id=116646&sr=posts&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9">1298</a></dd> <dd class="profile-joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> May 20th, 2009, 7:42 am</dd> </dl> <div class="postbody"> <div id="post_content373935"> <h3 > <a href="./viewtopic.php?p=373935&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9#p373935">Re: Steelhive Faction feedback/balancing</a> </h3> <ul class="post-buttons"> <li> <a href="./posting.php?mode=quote&p=373935&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9" title="Reply with quote" class="button button-icon-only"> <i class="icon fa-quote-left fa-fw" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Quote</span> </a> </li> </ul> <p class="author"> <a class="unread" href="./viewtopic.php?p=373935&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9#p373935" title="Post"> <i class="icon fa-file fa-fw icon-lightgray icon-md" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Post</span> </a> <span class="responsive-hide">by <strong><a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=116646&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9" class="username">melinath</a></strong> » </span><time datetime="2009-08-04T21:25:26+00:00">August 4th, 2009, 9:25 pm</time> </p> <div class="content">Tweaked choriote xp.</div> </div> </div> <div class="back2top"> <a href="#top" class="top" title="Top"> <i class="icon fa-chevron-circle-up fa-fw icon-gray" aria-hidden="true"></i> <span class="sr-only">Top</span> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div id="p373942" class="post has-profile bg2"> <div class="inner"> <dl class="postprofile" id="profile373942"> <dt class="has-profile-rank has-avatar"> <div class="avatar-container"> <a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=117422&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9" class="avatar"><img class="avatar" src="./download/file.php?avatar=117422_1404228300.png" width="100" height="100" alt="User avatar" /></a> </div> <a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=117422&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9" style="color: #0080FF;" class="username-coloured">Zerovirus</a> </dt> <dd class="profile-rank">Art Contributor</dd> <dd class="profile-posts"><strong>Posts:</strong> <a href="./search.php?author_id=117422&sr=posts&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9">1693</a></dd> <dd class="profile-joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> July 8th, 2009, 4:51 pm</dd> </dl> <div class="postbody"> <div id="post_content373942"> <h3 > <a href="./viewtopic.php?p=373942&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9#p373942">Re: Steelhive Faction feedback/balancing</a> </h3> <ul class="post-buttons"> <li> <a href="./posting.php?mode=quote&p=373942&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9" title="Reply with quote" class="button button-icon-only"> <i class="icon fa-quote-left fa-fw" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Quote</span> </a> </li> </ul> <p class="author"> <a class="unread" href="./viewtopic.php?p=373942&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9#p373942" title="Post"> <i class="icon fa-file fa-fw icon-lightgray icon-md" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Post</span> </a> <span class="responsive-hide">by <strong><a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=117422&sid=a2f33aa0015ef199ba1e4d55c241c7a9" style="color: #0080FF;" class="username-coloured">Zerovirus</a></strong> » </span><time datetime="2009-08-04T21:36:59+00:00">August 4th, 2009, 9:36 pm</time> </p> <div class="content">I'm always pointing out tiny things I want changed... Hope it isn't too annoying.<br> <br> Because a lot of melee units' graphics are too high up and I can't edit them without removing transparency. Canyou move the... Let me make a list.<br> <br> Amniote- Down 5 pixels<br> Bladewhirler- Down 5 pixels<br> Slasher- Down, maybe 7 or 8 pixels?<br> Vector- Down 7 pixels<br> Vorpal- Down 3 pixels<br> <br> Basically have their shadows at almost the same alignment in the graphics and it'll be great. And, can you make the melee animations actually have the little slashers and vorpals and whatnot move at each other? Right now I can't even tell which unit is attacking due to the fact that none of the attacks, ranged or melee, moves the actual units. A few lightning bolts from the Lich's Shadow Wave would be cool for all the electrical attacks too.<br> <br> EDIT: Choriote is still overpowered; too many hitpoints, so I'm going to fix it myself... Amniote now has 35 HP and 2 XP to level up, Choriote has 45 HP and 10 XP to level up. I uploaded the new version.<br> <br> I EDIT too much: The entire army is more balanced in general but still can't stand up to any mainline faction in combat... I've tried pitting computers against each other, with one being the Steelhive and one being a random mainline faction, and every single time, the Steelhive loses. So the computer doesn't know how to use amniotes or Cybercores or Lightshifters, but that shouldn't make that much of a difference...<br> <br> Then I tried playing against AI. I lost every time. I don't think that can be chalked up to my epic failure in Wesnoth Tactics 101.<br> <br> Oh well. More units planned:<br> <br> Steel Drone=>Scout=>Recon <br> Scout units that can hide on flat terrain, making them scoutninjas. Very weak and low HP to compensate. Not intended for real battle, only stealth. The Steel Recon unit gains a Taser, which deals 20-1 damage. Assassination FTW.<br> <br> Steel Repairer<br> Cheap repair units that have heal+4. Their only attack is the ranged Zap which deals 5-1 Damage. However, spam up a few of these cheap healers and you can win wars at little injury.</div> <div id="sig373942" class="signature"><a href="http://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=30560"

Sentient. Another one that needs a bit of WML. Basically it's a Lv1 that doesn't advance but can learn from past fights; every time it gets AMLA (with base XP needed being 6) you have the choice of increasing its HP, Attack power on melee or ranged, or Attack amount of melee or ranged. (5 choices in total) Unfortunately though, it costs 22 gold due to its literally infinite potential and has really weak starting combat stats. 20 HP, 3x3 Melee, 3x3 Ranged.<br> <br> What version are you playing on? We have it on the 1.7 server, I think... Right, Melinath?</div> <div id="sig374129" class="signature"><a href="http://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=30560" class="postlink">UtBS revision spriting</a>.<br> <a
