[FA] Lobster Fight Live (ACU wars)

Lobster Fight Live - ACU Wars
For those who don't know, Lobster Fight Live aka Lobster mod is a small mod that tweaks the balance of Blackops Advanced Command Units for the purpose of an ACU War. Standard game settings are...
Mods: Lobster Fight Live, Blackops Advanced Command Units and Blackops Icon Support
Optional: Blackops Unleashed
Map: ACU Lab 1, Lobster Arena 1a or similar no-econ arena-style map
Victory: Assassination
Unit Cap: 250
Unit Restrictions: No experimental, naval, land, air, nukes or game enders
If that sounds restrictive don't worry too much because you can do quite a lot with just your ACU and a few structures. A moderate sized economy is provided automatically so you don't need to worry about resources, at least at the start, and most games begin with teammates assisting each other with T2 engineering upgrades. All factions have some form of T2 engineering station and a huge variety of ACU upgrades that allow for a variety of play styles. Regardless of the path you choose it is vital that you and your teammates fully upgrade your ACUs as fast as possible. After that it's simple. All you have to do is figure out how to isolate and kill the enemy ACUs while making sure they don't kill you :)

|||Once again, A Vault only mod >.>|||Pst its TVg and not TVG BrockSamson and teleblocking seems to be working again I think this is due to a chance with the anti-tele code that was made a few versions back.|||brandon007|||Lt_hawkeye|||Um Brock you might want to make note of what Version of BO:ACUs you are using as there have been a decent amount of changes between v2.9 & v3.0 specifically dealing with the intel trees & teleport that people have complained about. It also includes the ability to hook custom regen values into the ACU as well like you asked for. :)|||I made a note about version numbers to hopefully clarify that a little bit, and yes, thanks for the regen change. Anything specific about the teleport and intel? Ken, what do you mean by teleblocking?
Since the mod is so small and usually downloaded as players join a match the Vault is the easiest, fastest and most obvious place to host this mod. However, you are welcome to rehost it elsewhere (or suggest places where I can).|||Basically I was curious if you noticed I rewrote the intel trees on 3 factions to remove the stealth/teleport mechanic alot of people complained was too OP. The teleport is still there but they have been reworked on both range and charge time. Granted still dirt cheap energy wise. Haven't heard any complaints but haven't really gotten any comments on either yet considering how much people bugged me over both.
I can dig up the exact numbers if you need me to as I can't find the thread post. The quick description on the new intel mechanics are here:
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=35265&start=1475
6th Post down.
Also in 3.0+ I reworked the teleport blocker script in BO:ACUs so that it doesn't interfere with any mods hooking the teleport thread (I moved it to another function) so unless you specificly set the teleport blocker value in my ACU's BP to 0 the fields will probobly be active again.
EDIT: Blackops is planning a new release soon so I will make sure the regen sync is in the next version.|||I don't currently mess with any BO scripts I just change BP values. To remove the ACU anti-teleport I simply set the radius to 0. I do plan to go back and look at the teleport balance but I don't think it will need much change for Lobster because we played a lot of 3.1a games and nothing jumped out as being an issue.|||On vault accessibility, Seiya, it's not foolproof or bulletproof, a secondary hosting location will always be useful to many legit customers.

Regarding UI regen display, I don't mind BrockSamson adding UI Regen Display to his mod.
I do however mind if Exavier takes _Any_ code of mine without asking.
Considering I've had to fix yet another malicious incompatibility of his making, I'm still upholding that.
