Default What\'s good these days?
Hi All,

Been away from SE4 for awhile but considering to start playing again. What's the latest and greatest with regards to patches and mods these days? Has anyone managed to mod an AI that puts up a decent fight?

There is the TDM Mod which 'tweaks' the AI for a better opponent. IMO it is a must-have.

Some mods have the TDM optomized AI's with it.
Devnull Mod for sure. Perhaps P&N Mod and Proportions as well.

The above mods (and many more) have changed the gameplay greatly.

There is also a Mod that claims to be tweaked to get the most out of an AI. (I remember that it has built-in advantages for the AI. Chooseable at game setup.)

Hope this helps and welcome back!

SJmod (Gritty Economics) is new too.
I'm playing some test games at the moment...

Leaky shields/armor
resources redefined
maintenance on some facilities
Troops are really really nice (and important).
ship costs go up as the cube of the size, but maintenance is flat-rate independent of size.

Just no AIs, but multiplayer is fun.

Hey hey welcome back. A lot has happened in over the years. More than 250 ship sets, pbw, mods and more mods.

Speaking of mods, SJ can you post more info on this mod your talking about?
