Mod: Insectoids

[Shovah32]

Ive gotten the error trying to host a turn both with and without Regina. Im fully patched with no others mods running and the only thing i can manually get into on your mod is the folder with all the pictures so i cant make the changes you suggested.

[Sombre]

Just use notepad (or another text editor) to edit the .dm file named,.. insectoids I suppose.

Open the Insectoid.dm file with notepad as Sombre suggested.

#name "Primordia Regina"
#descr "Oldest living Nest queen, she is the epicenter of the Insectoid superorganism. While other species may view her as a god, the Insectoids don't possess religious philosophies. Their devotion to their Prime Queen is unquestioning and is akin to religious devotion of other races."

Version 0.05

Added "Scarab" and it's spell.

[Shovah32]

Did suggested changes, still same problem.

edit: ok, after making the suggested changes, the third time i created a game it worked and is still working. I have one question though: are the spawns from creatures dom dependant?

[Shovah32]

Very nice mod. I like all the summons but i feel the swarms/swarm mother may be a bit strong. While not very damaging a 1 slave creature with 6 attacks at attack level 13(with each attack reducing the enemies defence by 2 iirc) and some fear seems pretty evil

[Amos]

The spawns from Queen and Hive Queen are dominion dependent.

Version 0.06

-Second defense commander changed to Queen (didn't make sense that insects would retreat from their nest)
-Removed Drone's castledef bonus.
