aight ive shrunken the mod to only include thanaras content, ill see what happens
#NeXus Mod
fresh geyser
fresh geyser
ok
ive finished the new vion base 1
pretty easy ig, you can beat it with molecules and neutrons
at least thats what i tried out
fresh geyser
finally realized why the effects werent showing, you need effectChance
for these generators i set it to an all time high lol
heres a sector that really requires you to think
your only source of nearby tryphoton is blocked by a huge wall but yo ucan use the gateway to get it
its basically your only source of tryphoton and power so youll have to use it wisely
fresh geyser
i love glow
rain trench
heres a sector that really requires you to think
is this made in json?
fresh geyser
so is that just a 3x3 phase bridge
yeap
you gotta do what you gotta do to achieve a 3x3 teleporter lol
currently working on a map that has like 6 pools of pure tryphoton and tryphoton creatures will emerge from them every so often so now not only do you have to deal with the enemies but you have to deal with them too
not to mention that you start with alot of titanium but the only sources of titanium on the sector are near said pools
torture
rain trench
its asthosus all over again 🧌
fresh geyser
nah asthosus is way better and is (i think) all enemy maps
this gives you pain even on capture sectors
thats why its called thanaras which is taken from thanatos, personification of death
also im going by the saying "if everything is OP then its balanced"
strong aspen
thanatos iirc is an asth map
fresh geyser
thanatos iirc is an asth map
yep lol i remember
strong aspen
-# molten armaments when?
rain trench
nah asthosus is way better and is (i think) all enemy maps
asthosus has several barite creature focused maps
at least 6
fresh geyser
-# ~~molten armaments when?~~
once i feed the neXuses ill go back to erekir duty lol
fresh geyser
asthosus has several barite creature focused maps
yeah ik
i dont want this mod to be compared to asthosus though
its its own thing im not tryna make this mod into it just doing what my imagination decides
rain trench
yeah ik
i dont want this mod to be compared to asthosus though
its its own thing...
comparing it to asthosus isnt bad though
its diffrent enough from it
fresh geyser
ok so i did a bit of testing
the map is way too hard lol im gonna tone it down by making the tryphotons spawn way farther
fresh geyser
my laptop died in the middle of testing the mao
but its balanced now
i think
ill probably have to give the player more prep time but from what ive seen its beatable i think
fresh geyser
gave the player a vion drone because its cool
aight heres some more gameplay
as you know, titanium can only be found near the pools
and unfortunately each pool will spawn a tryphoton creature
hence i made these titanium extracting posts that are defended by orbs
not much but its progress
stiff quail
gave the player a vion drone because its cool
automatic!!!
fresh geyser
i think ill also work on the effects for the creatures cuz rn theyre mostly composed of oh noes
rain trench
fresh geyser
got some good news about the map
idk why but the maps i design have really hard early game, absolutely easy mid game, and the late game just depends on how well youve done during mid game
like thanaras maps have that sense of accomplishment, like once you get things going on midgame you think it will be alright
then suddenly the guardian wave comes and your base is destroyed by 3 flying iotas
fresh geyser
idk why but the maps i design have really hard early game, absolutely easy mid g...
this map doe, once you get control of that section of the map your basically done for life
its got tryphoton, titanium, and tungsten, all you need to start experimenting and building up your defense
fresh geyser
ok maybe the tier 4 rift on wave 23 was a bad idea
rip my run
ill move it somewhere farther
slate sage
i want the radioactive thingies to have hives 😡
fresh geyser
been busy with schoolwork but ima try work on the mod today
stiff quail
yeyeye
fresh geyser
upgrades people, upgrades!
will also nerf some maps to make them easier to beat but still challnging
stiff quail
yeyeeyeyeyey
fresh geyser
uhhhh
supposed to be like that bullet deflector from erekir
its basically the only "defensive" building that vion has
defensive as in walls and stuff, except this is kinda just "bullet go bye bye
maybe one thing i can do to differentiate this from erekir is for this to have a small range but quick fire rate
fresh geyser
gonna make some new vion environments for the later levels
like we have dense vion so there should be stupid vion and idiot vion
thats not a bad idea actually
also the scenery just gets more chaotic cuz chaos is the embodiment of vion lol
fresh geyser
gonna make a weird but fun idea for a map
ok now that i think about it... i should have named it "bleeding vion" instead of "idiot vion"
it looks like an infection lol
fresh geyser
just when you thought the torture ended
i present to you, low visibility + an infinite weather that inflicts you and all units with subzero freezing
goodluck tryna scout MWHAHAHAHAHA
i will however give the player an assault drone so they get a temproary boost so its not the end of the world
also the enemies will be much stronger as most of them are slowed down
since your turrets are unaffected they will have the upperhand
fresh geyser
schol
stiff quail
😭
fresh geyser
what did you name those
the sprite of the beamdrill
its called silphium-bore so i named the lasers like "silphium-bore-laser"
hol up someone gave advice in java
it finally works yipeers
gonna change the width so that it doesnt look weird
rain trench
the sprite of the beamdrill
its called silphium-bore so i named the lasers like ...
yeah its supossed to be
-beam-end
-beam-center
-beam-boost
-beam-boost-end
-beam-boost-center```ok wow
the map is much harder than i thought lol
even though the enemies are slow, so is your progression
im on wave 2 rn and i just barely made it out with 2 hastatis and 2 turfs
gonna keep on going
fresh geyser
was able to start mining vion on i think wave 6
im gonna make the drill require less power, its taking too much for its size lol
fresh geyser
the day nexus mod gets a playthrough is the day ascension happens
might need to add more color to the vion sprites so that they dont all look the same
rain trench
fresh geyser
blue
rain trench
stiff quail
wthhhhhh
fresh geyser
map going well
was able to set up a good defense but i forgot about the flying guys🥀
i was able to lure them to the defense but ima set up something near the base since thats where they all go
some punctuals and vion turrets would do well
fresh geyser
peace may be temporary, but cat videos are forever
rain trench
cutie
fresh geyser
wait how's did you make it have 2 build beams
it actually has 4 for each corner lol
you can give a unit multiple build or mine beams (idk about the mine beams havent tried it yet maybe it doesnt exist)
heres the code if you want:
{
type: BuildWeapon
rotate: true
rotateSpeed: 7
x: 5.3
y: -5.3
mirror: true
shootY: 0
}
its actually in the weapons code so you put it in weapons: []
rain trench
yeah i figured
fresh geyser
finally finished the map
it was actually pretty easy or maybe thats just me
ill post photos but theyre gonna be blurry cuz i used my phone
its laggy when i use mindustry and chrome at the same time
setting up the final defensive line to protect against both ground and air
setting up the extemporaneous generator
epic power proportions
one of them can power an entire base
tier 4 vion defense
base in its entirety
building the super battery
stores up to 9 million power mwhehehe
powerful defense
this map also has 2 guardian waves one after the other so when you think you won the game just hits you with 1 WAVE UNTIL GUARDIAN
strong aspen
-# did you take these pics from a phone or smth
fresh geyser
-# did you take these pics from a phone or smth
yes🥀
fresh geyser
prtSC
i would but my laptop lags and overheats when i use mindustry with any other app
just used my phone cuz it was easier
fresh geyser
um i checked its 4
strong aspen
oh
fresh geyser
also buffed the map waves ill test it if its too much
fresh geyser
vion core for the tier 5 and guardian vion
strong aspen
oo
fresh geyser
cursed abomination
fresh geyser
the vion overlord
fresh geyser
uhm
yeah it just looks a bit weird cuz i didnt add any outlines
theres weapons in there they just blend in
testing out the buffed map its ok so far
you really need to utilize the vion turrets here since they are so powerful and you have quite literally unlimited vion quartz
as the vion like to call it: chaos
guardian wave
ok thankfully the guardian was still absolutely demolished lol
i think the map is ready
fresh geyser
guardian wave
ok so i think ill call this Absolute Zero Tundra
the enemy base ill call Entropic Stratum
