Avatar Scatter3438396775Improved Initial InfantryportalsImproves the spawning of initial infantry portals:
- Always on the ground, not ontop of railings and such
- Reasonably evenly spread from the Command Station
- Minimum distance from the Command Station
- Minimum distance between structures
- Minimum distance from walls

Probably expensive calculations but only happens before the game starts.

Avatar Bhaz3397710344Bishop - Bot Mod⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ v1.4.0 - Crouching Fade, Hidden Sentry


Bishop - Bot Mod


Bishop is a series of large and small tweaks to bots that attempt to increase the challenge they provide to players.

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.
  • Strategically placed temporary phase gates and tunnels.
  • Alien pack mentalities.
  • Marine fireteams.
  • Dynamic alien retreating.
  • Late-game med spam.
  • Gorge rework, including support for Hydras, Webs and Bile Mines.
  • Pathing reworks for multiple alien classes.
  • Dozens of minor tweaks. (See the patch notes.)
  • Fixes to vanilla bugs.


Coming Soon


Check out my feature wishlist.

Installation and Usage


1) Subscribe

Subscribe to this mod, Shine, and Bot_Maintenance.
Dedicated server users can skip this step.

2) Enable

Launch the game, go to the mods menu and enable the subscribed mods. 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.

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.



Known issues


  • Ammo requests can sometimes be deleted without being serviced.
  • Skulks can sometimes get stuck on the lip of a tunnel.
  • Marines are sometimes trying to shoot through solid objects.

Avatar Mephilles2819367993Mephs Mapping PlaygroundThis is my mapping playground.
There are multiple maps in this mod and all of them are variants of official maps that address either things that personally frustrate me on the map or what I perceive as balance/gameplay problem.

The maps in this mod are called like the original maps but have "_mmpg" added to the end.

Maps currently in the mod:
ns2_biodome
ns2_caged
ns2_descent
ns2_docking
ns2_eclipse
ns2_kodiak
ns2_metro
ns2_mineshaft
ns2_refinery
ns2_summit

Avatar Scatter3432989354Combat Standalone RebuildBased on the game NS2:Combat developed by Faultline Games a number of years ago.

This mod combines the Combat Standalone upgrade system and menu with a capture point system on regular NS2 maps.

Still a work in progress, a few bugs present.

Update 09/03/25
* Fixed some spawning issues
* Now compatible with CBM
* Modular Exo Menu now working

Update 23/02/25:
* Made it so bots go the the resource and techpoints to capture them
* Integrated Extra Weapons mod - SMG / Cannon / Revolver (still a few bugs remain)
* Replaced the Armory buildable with the Weapon Cache Model (still an armory effectively)\n\n\n* No commanders
* Designed for NS2 maps (not combat)
* Team has to capture the resource points and tech points. These are captured by remaining in the area for a period upon which the structure will drop
* Resource towers give XP to the player
* Tech points give an XP multiplier per point held
* Upgrades/Weapons/Lifeforms purchased from a personal upgrade menu

Marines
* Spawn from IPs
* Base starts with PG, IPs (player count dependant) and Armoury. These can be killed by aliens but will respawn in the same spot after 30 seconds.
* Players can unlock structures to drop in the map including PG, Armour, Sentry and Obs. These do not respawn as the base structures do)
* Moved GL and FT to secondary in replacement of the pistol when purchased

Marine Upgrades
- Weapon 1 - 5
- Armour 1 - 5
- Speed 1 - 3
- Nano Armour 1 - 3
- Reload speed
- Magazine ("clip") size
- Resupply
- Standard weapons we know\n\n\nAliens
* Abilities are purchased separately (in regular combat its via tier 2 or tier 3 unlock)
* Aliens spawn in eggs, they can be killed by the enemy

Still to do:

* Weapon cache in replacement of armoury model
* Babbler bomb for gorge
* Prowler lifeform
* Weapon cache - Replace droppable armoury and retool it as something else

Avatar Meteru2921913448Extra WeaponsNew weapons for marines in NS2!

The Heavy Cannon is a long-range weapon with severe damage but a low rate of fire. Perfect for killing lightly armored lifeforms at range but don't let them get in too close, or they'll eat you for breakfast.

The Submachinegun is a lightweight all-around versatile weapon at most ranges.

The Revolver, quoting Combat standalone: "Do you feel lucky, punk?".\n\n\nCredits

Implementation for NS2 by Scatter.
Most GUI items are created by F2.
Submachinegun model by Evil_Ice.
The Heavy Cannon and Revolver model by 4Horsemen.

Avatar Bleu3426836832Blast to the PastThis is Blast to the Past (B2TP)\n\n\nA vanilla-flavored Natural Selection 2 mod aimed at addressing perceived Marine domination in the current vanilla build of the game under 8v8 conditions.\n\n\nWhile stats on ns2panel.com show an almost 50-50 winrate (which is a good thing), in our experience most players have a higher marine than alien hiveskill, a rare 5 sight years ago.

This is a sympthom of how the game is a bit too marine sided at the moment.

As a consequence, the hive skill system, using the per-team-hiveskills feature that didn't exist back them can simply solve these imbalances by slightly stacking the alien team with better players. This, in turn, creates a 50-50 winrate.
However, if teams were to be sweapped then it would be expected the stronger, now marine team would crush the opposition.

In conclusion, while the game can be 'balanced' for single rounds, it's not truly balanced until a 50-50-ish winrate is achieved after teamswaps.\n\n\nThis mod aims to attack the causes of this, by doing the least amount of changes whenever possible in the most impactful places. Most of these changes revert some values to what were vanilla values years ago (PvE costs, welder costs, lerk timings, hence the name of the mod).\n\n\nChanges are as follows:\n\n\n**Aliens**

Crag, Shade, Shift, Whip cost 10 Tres (was 13)
(we have no idea why this was never re-adressed since this was changed circa the world championship and there have been multiple other related changes, like harsher supply limits and Tres tunnels that cost 16 total Tres to build)\n\n\nLerks cost 20 Tres (was 21)
(starting at 15Tres this brings back the old Lerk pop up timing. From 3min to 2.30 min at 2 RTs)\n\n\n**Marines**

Welders cost 3 Pres (was 2)\n\n\nMarines start with 1 IP (vanilla!) but

+5Tres on 7v7

+10Tres on 8v8\n\n\nThis serves as an interpolation between 1IP and no bonuses for 6v6 (vanilla behavior) and +1 IP for the arcade clusterfugg that is 10v10, which is essentially +20 Tres. The only way to give "half an IP" is to give Tres. Giving a straight IP for 8v8 ammounts to nonstop early marine pressure and can snowball easily into marines choking out the aliens.
