View source for Fests+ for SFC:OP


Tired of the same ol' BattleFests? Sick of watching some enemy getting a XFF when you start with some poor early era FF? .. well.. this should solve your problems! The Fests+ package includes 4 mission scripts for SFC:OP. They are more intelligent than the original Fests scripts (no offense, dear author) and more focused.

== Fests+ 1.1 for OP ==

=== What's different compared to the old BattleFests? ===

* The hullclasses have been expanded
** There are, like before, 6 ship classes in the battlefest:
*** Frigate
*** Destroyer
*** Light Cruiser
*** Heavy Cruiser
*** Heavy BattleCruiser
*** Dreadnought 
** .. however, these classes have been expanded:
*** Frigate
*** Destroyer '''''AND''''' War Destroyers
*** Light Cruiser
*** Heavy Cruiser AND New Heavy Cruiser
*** Heavy BattleCruiser
*** Dreadnought 

* The ships chosen will be Era-complient. 
** X1 ships, like those in OP+, are grouped with the Advanced Era ships: there aren't enough of those.

* 2nd pass matching on ship selection failure
** If a ship class from a given era can't be selected, a close match will be selected. This will be from a smaller or larger class, or the same class from a near era.

* Late-era Slugfests are NASTY-FUN!
** If you decide to play a SlugFest+ in Late Era, the 3 ships chosen will be a BCH, DN and BB.

=== What's different? ===

Differences: You take a Bfest+, and..

* added 1 more hull class: Battleship
*** Frigate
*** Destroyer '''''AND''''' War Destroyers
*** Light Cruiser
*** Heavy Cruiser AND New Heavy Cruiser
*** Heavy BattleCruiser
*** Dreadnought 
*** Battleship 

* every selected player gets an AI partner of the same race (one they cannot control)
** ie:
*** in a 2-player game, 1 vs 1, it makes it a 2 vs 2.
*** in a 6-player game, FreeForAll (FFA), It will make it a 2 vs 2 vs 2 vs 2 vs 2 vs 2 game.
*** in a 6-player game, 3 vs 3, it makes it a 6 vs 6
