DarkStorm Military Technologies

THIS IS NOT MY MOD!!
Like with all of these old mods I'm re-releasing, I'm going to list the credits first:
-Darlos9D for the original mod, including all scripts, sprites, and ini files
-The people who did the fan-made 1.0 update, since I used it to make this B30 update
-Me for the UL2 faction file and fixing one script referencing the removed "IO" Lua library
-Data and the crew for making this awesome game, through which none of this would be even remotely possible

FACTION DESCRIPTION:
"DarkStorm Military Technologies does not represent any particular force within the setting of Cortex Command. Rather, it has struck its own gold in the business of selling its products to all of the various competing factions, either legitimately or through black market means. If it has any long-term goals of its own in the competition or on the planet in question, they have yet to let on. Maybe they're just arms researchers and dealers, but more than likely they have plans that are just as enigmatic as the nature of the planet itself."

DarkStorm, as its description suggests, was never supposed to be a metagame-compatible mod due to the faction's nature as black market dealers. As such, I have not added metagame support, and DarkStorm is NOT going to appear on your Campaign as a faction. However, as you read in the Credits, I added UL2 and VW support. Your welcome.

NOTE: If you are playing against DarkStorm, know that the AI will be unable to get any weapons with underslung weapons, the Cryo Gun, or any of the Oni-only weapons. Also, as Shishi turrets aren't available in UL2/VW, the turret-specific weapons aren't either.

By default, activate underslung weapons with "N" and integrated melee weapons with "M".
Double-tap the crouch button to activate the D6 Yuurei Bushi's cloaking device and become invisible to AI.
Drop ammo packs on the ground to attach them, allowing you to use the associated weapon.
Drop Shishi Turret only weapons onto the turret to attach them to the turret. You'll need to; by default, the turret has no weapons.

HOW TO ENABLE DARKSTORM FOR UL2/VW:
1. Open voidwanderers.rte or unmappedlands2.rte
2. Open the Factions folder
3. Open Factions.cfg
4. Add the line "DarkStorm.rte" (no quotes)
5. Enjoy!

If you want to suggest any changes to the UL2 faction file such as research costs or passive bonuses, let me know.
