Avatar Joshua-Boo-Boos3683601793Joshua-Boo-Boos Combat InjectorAfter the seriousness of the Kharaa threat was fully established via numerous combat reports sent to command it was determined that Frontiersmen forces were in dire need of enhancement.

Brazier Industries answered the call for a new device capable of providing combat enhancements to Frontiersmen forces in combat with the Kharaa threat.

The Combat Injector provides numerous enhancements in one device which can be switched between using one's Secondary Attack button.

The aforementioned enhancements are as follows (choose one):

40 seconds of +5 HP per second
Permanent spore damage negation for the current entity
10 seconds of Catpack
9 seconds of Nanoshield

Costs 5 p-res to purchase in vanilla NS2 and 1 point in Combat.

Avatar Bhaz3397710344Bishop - Bot Modv1.5.9 - They're comin' out of the goddamn walls!

Bishop - Bot Mod


Bishop is an overhaul to bots that attempts to increase the challenge they provide to players. It also serves as an attempt to preserve this dying title's longevity.

Not all maps support vents yet, I will remove this message when that changes.

Bishop now has a UI. You an access it by:
a) Typing !bishop in chat.
b) Running bishop_menu in the console.
c) Binding a key to open the menu, i.e.:
bind P bishop_menu

Highlights


  • UI and automated bot management.
  • Skulk vent support.
  • Strategically placed temporary phase gates and tunnels.
  • Alien pack mentalities.
  • Marine fireteams.
  • Dynamic alien retreating.
  • Late-game med spam.
  • Complete Gorge rework.
  • Movement improvements.
  • Dozens of minor tweaks and bugfixes.


Coming Soon


Check out my feature wishlist.

Installation and Usage


1) Subscribe

Please also subscribe to Bot_Maintenance, this mod wouldn't have been created without it.
Dedicated server users can skip this step.

2) Enable

Launch the game, go to the mods menu and enable the mod. Remember to click Restart instead of Back.
Dedicated server users can skip this step.

If you're running a dedicated server, the required mod IDs are:
117887554, 3397710344, 3023063995
If you prefer enabling mods the old school way by hex ID:
706d242, ca84f208, b4304bbb

3) Jump In

Launch a local game (or join your dedicated server.)
Try to open the Bishop UI to confirm it's working. (Steps at top.)

4) Play

Choose your desired settings - changes are saved immediately.
The config for Bishop is saved in %appdata%\Natural Selection 2\shine\plugins\Bishop.json.
The path is very similar for dedicated servers, but starts from the config folder.

With management enabled, Bishop will do its best to maintain your chosen settings.
If you choose to disable management, addbot and all the vanilla bot commands work as normal.
Be careful fiddling with these settings mid-round or you may abruptly end your game.

On dedicated servers, your SteamID needs either global access to all commands (an empty blacklist), or permission to use the "bishop_set" command.
Here is the relevant Shine documentation page for changing user permissions.
