Yes i did overlook to create new game .. apology for posting premature conclusion.Afair there was no problem changing system monsters speed via OCL_Improved. *** you need to create a new save with new .exe to see the effect.

Re: OCL_Improved
Thank you for your effort in this wonderful old game!
I used to have a copy of OCL Improved but I have deleted it
The newer version is a 64bit only and I do not have a compiler.
Is there a chance you or some other kind guy can provide a win32 executable?
Or an older version?

Re: OCL_Improved
Hey Nirran,
just one update for your great program:
The Battle Scanner value in OCL currently only changes the ship info screen when in Main Galaxy Map. The actual Battle Scanner attack bonus is located at BBDBA in VDC/ICE.
Default hex value is 32 for the +50 combat bonus.

Re: OCL_Improved
Am looking at the code that governs ARU and cyber. Have already played a game where ARU is 10% instead of 20 and cybernetic 5% instead of 10. The offset '64' appears in multiple places and have yet to identify why there are so many and for which situation each one applies. As for the repair% of internal systems I have two questions: 1. in ocl_improved txt file it says that the denominator for internal repair is 660 (294). is it known where this offset is located / is that an offset? I cannot easily find it it seems... 2. anyone has a way to actually test internal repair in game? or does it come down to counting the little yellow barsAnother (possible) bug report (or I am doing something wrong). Using the latest build (245), I can't seem to alter the speed of the ship repair bonus the Cybernetic pick includes, no matter what value I enter instead of 200. I did try several times, on a clean fresh install, having properly saved the txt file produced by OCL before using the GUI to write to MOO2 files. On all instances, the cybernetic ships always regenerate 10% of Structure+Armor per combat round, half the rate of the 'Automated Repair Unit' ship special... Btw, is there a way to alter the repair speed of this ship special ?
Re: OCL_Improved
It come to witnessing the specials being repaired, engine, weapons, computer etc, about second question. With various stuff like malfunctioning repaired shield etc.
Re: OCL_Improved
Not denominator, but numerator. In Vanilla factual rate of repair of internal systems for cybernetic race is 660/200=3.3% contrary to description, which says it is 5%;1. in ocl_improved txt file it says that the denominator for internal repair is 660
No, it isn't known. Moreover, I figured this numarator by myself, since I verified the actual rate of repair, which turned out to be different from specified.is it known where this offset is located / is that an offset? I cannot easily find it it seems...
Code: Select all
CMBTFIR2: Repair_Combat_Ship_
Offset: Data Size Value
000BB0D8: C8 00 00 00 DWORD 200 ; Internal Repair = X/200
1. Half of hp of the engine
2. HP of beam computer
3. HP of shield generator
4. HP of weapons
5. HP of specials
And the difference between 5% and 3.3% came from the fact that base includes only half hp of the engines.
Yes, internals are showing with yellow bars. To test the rate of repair you can use ion cannon (or emg missile) to damage internals and see how fast it is going to be repaired in the next rounds.2. anyone has a way to actually test internal repair in game? or does it come down to counting the little yellow bars
Re: OCL_Improved
Yes, this is what i meant, translated wrongly into english.Not denominator, but numerator. In Vanilla factual rate of repair of internal systems for cybernetic race is 660/200=3.3% contrary to description, which says it is 5%;
Ok. Does changing 200 to 132 to achieve the 5% internal repair, then changes a star base internal repair correctly, as it has no engine?And the difference between 5% and 3.3% came from the fact that base includes only half hp of the engines.

Cannot tell, it needs testing.Does changing 200 to 132 to achieve the 5% internal repair, then changes a star base internal repair correctly, as it has no engine?
Re: OCL_Improved
Some info for the OCL_Improved GUI program:
The last row in the table SHIPS are the hit point values of the ships in non-tactical games.
(4,15,25,40,80,300). Strategic ship do not have regular armor & structure, only hit points.
Also ships in strategic have no combat speed; the row before the last one are the base numbers for Beam Defense or Ship Defense (not sure which one atm): 50,40,30,25,20,15, and -10 for the platforms.
The four preceding columns are strategic ship weapon counts: beams, missiles, special weapons, bombs.

Re: OCL_Improved
Hi,
I downloaded it but no idea how to use with GoG version of the game. When I open it, after placing in MOO2 folder, it does not read game files, so everything is empty. I am playing (and enjoying) ICEx mod and I would like to use OCL to modify back to 50% battle pods plus double the research for every tech. Can anyone give me a hint about, please?

Re: OCL_Improved
Hey,
if OCL_Improved.exe is in the same folder as ICEMODx.exe, then startup a DOS prompt.
In the prompt go to the folder where ICEx is located.
Then type:
OCL_Improved.exe -ext -debug -VDC -exe:ICEMODx.exe -txt:mynewtextfile.txt
This wil generate a text file, named mynewtextfile.txt (call it whatever you want)
In this file you can modify the things like Battle Pods space etc.
Once done run:
OCL_Improved.exe -wrt -debug -VDC -exe:ICEMODx.exe -txt:mynewtextfile.txt
And the exe will be updated.
