ninja stars in ironforge
« on: January 07, 2016, 12:16:22 PM »
they actually don't all have 6300 hp no matter the size like it says in the description. I finally looked at the components files like a hero :claping and the biggest has 5730hp (not 6300 oddly). The smallest has 2330. I thought it was a potentially broken technique to stack small ninjas with their "insane" hp but they thankfully have comparable values to other components. Now they will be completely trash in all aspects now :)

I'm gonna look through some more weapons, some of these descs may need to be updated as they're inaccurate for the stats.

Over time people making these mods haven't really put any effort towards how they appear in game.  which was the main focus when I did ubermod (increasing component count and consolidating components into as few menu options as possible)

The descriptions have been full of nonsense forever, it's pretty much a crap shoot.

tbh i think 123 has been checking ironforge pretty well, it's just a copypaste error.

haha. have you even played ironforge? there's hardly "no effort" in it. It's probably the most balanced mod in RA2 history.

Absolutely this, I'd recommend playing it and seeing for yourself TDS.

Yes, balanced or not, I found it a spattering of seemingly random parts that could be consolidated and tons of duplicates.

I fail to see tons of duplicates or random parts - there is a single part for every occasion, and this is especially evident with weapons. This is a good thing. No confusion about what to use. Unless by duplicates you mean 'different sizes of things' then I have zero idea where you're coming from.

Ironforge is probably the most consolidated and simplified mod too. Have you SEEN DSL? I suppose there's tons of duplicates in the sense that everything has at least 5 sizes, but the way everything is organized is far better than in any other mod, and the different sizes are mostly to keep things balanced for different weight classes.
im just waiting for meganerdbomb to come along and kick things into gear.
