Pie menu is the circular menu that you get when you right click and hold, and sharpaim is when you hold your gun steady and can move out the three dots aimer thingy. On mouse and keyboard setup that is, in keyboard setup both of these are their own special keys.

With the mouse, just click the pie menu. With the keyboard tripple tap sharp aim.

to see the control setup i like to go to options, then configure control for the keyboard, that gives you an idea, and use the recommend controls.

Hey! I have allotted some time doing my vacation to work on fixing up this here mod. So far I've changed how the AA missile works and some general bug fixing. The most obvious one being how and where the AA missile is fired and making sure it is on the right team and such. Also added metagame data but I am not sure if it is done correctly.

'fraid not. For now, you have to stick to the PresetNames defined in the stock loadouts or in Lizard's thread here if you want it to work with the metagame's Auto-Base Build functionality. Otherwise, all of your guards are going to be zombies and I don't think your custom options will show up. :(

Ah, so those basically define what the AI thinks the loadout is? I'll go fix that right away then. Thanks!

Also, do you need all of those or does the AI just pick from what is available?

Basically, during autobuild, the AI preplaces loadouts based on the autobuild design for that map. It places Infantry Sniper types in towers, Infantry CQB types in narrow corridors, that sort of thing. Wherever they can make best use of the weapons found in that preset.

For example, a Light with the Railgun might be your Infantry Sniper, since it's a long range weapon, right? Whilst a Medium or Light with the LMG would be your Heavy/CQB trooper.

Ultimately, you'll want to make a few more weapons (and perhaps more actors) to fill out all the loadout options, at least if you want proper/full metagame support. ;)

It'll sub in any undefined loadouts with a basic zombie-clone at the moment, so it's probably worth filling all of them with copies of the Default Loadout until you have more actors and weapons. Nobody wants a base full of zombie-clones.

Ah, that kind of sucks. Oh well, I guess I'll fill the remaining loadout options with lights using the LMG. Thanks for the help there Arcalane.

Also if you guys encounter any bugs, be sure to fill me in.

Just tried it out, I love the Johnson railgun. AA missiles are fun to use as well, although I've accidentily blown myself up with them more than once. :roll:

i dunno why i never downloaded this mod.


it seems cool but i'd like it better if the helmet actually functioned as one and when you blew it off there'd be a clone head there with that spacesuit hood and communicator going from his ear to his mouth.

Seems as though there is a slight problem with this mod's campaign compatibility. All presets have been defined to the default Ronin presets, including the brain. This means that when I auto build my bases, instead of NovaMind soldiers being placed, it places only Ronin. Mainly the Brutus heavy preset.

Oh, I am an idiot. I forgot to update the archives when I made the loadout... *sigh*

(It's fixed now)

There is an odd... error in the campaign mode now. When I build bases, it sometimes substitutes NovaMind units (I believe the Heavies) with Rocket MK1s carrying Garret LMGs. This makes for humorous situations, but it also is a mild annoyance.
