Rising Tide of Aliens

So far, the aliens were just a mild nuisance in the game. However I believe they should have greater impact on the game. In the early game, they should limit your growth, forcing you to decide - will you invest great resources and anger them to take the treasures they protect OR will you settle for the medicore spot?
But aliens shouldnt just die off, dissapearing from their planet. Now they will adapt and evolve, becoming stronger every turn. Because of that, aliens will be an important factor even later in the game.



- Alien combat strenght scales throughout the game.
- Aliens are stronger
- Nests and aliens spawn more throughout the game, they won stop spawning even in later turns.
- Hydracorals will grow and re-spawn properly

For more extensive list of changes scroll down.



List of changes:


Main Features

- Normally nests can spawn only on pre-chosen spots; now they spawn throughout the game all over the map on semi-random basis. They will never spawn in your territory or close to other nests
- Nests now give combat bonus to defending unit
- Aliens now spawn throughout the game around the nests.
- Aliens are now stronger (flat increase) and get combat bonuses in miasma
- Aliens are more aggresive, get angry faster and protect their nests further away

Other Changes

- Improved alien sensitivity to miasma and your actions
- Increased number of nests at planetfall
- Increased nest recovery rate and number of aliens they spawn
- Adjusted spawning of colossal unit to compensate for slower early game
- Adjusted scavenging policy to prevent exploits
- Moved the ability to leash aliens to "Alien Adaptation" and Harmony 5 (12 for colossal) to prevent exploits


- Alien combat strenght now scales throughout the game
- Aliens will now gain strenght every few turns (currently 5% / 9 turns). This does not apply for colossal aliens
- Aliens will also gain "perks" at arbitrary points in game (so far there are 2 "evolution jumps"). This does apply for colossal aliens


- Number of hydracorals on the map is greatly increased, they will now pose a considerable (and reliable) barrier in oceans - imagine the tactical uses!
- Hydracorals will no longer die off in the middle of the game. They will die and re-grow on the same spot
- Increased chance that new hydracoral will grow

----------

Note: All changes are game speed and planet biome adjusted!

Note 2: I strongly recommend playing with frenzied aliens ON. I also recommend playing standard map with *at least* 10 sponsors and sparse resources.

-----------------------


I am a pacifist and love aliens. Can I do that? :3

Yes. I personally played a game of Harmony without killing a single alien. You have to make some sacrifices, but having aliens on your side can be worth it in the end.

I am a dwarf and want a real challange!


Note: You dont have to be dwarf to play the harder version (but it helps)


Any feedback or suggestions are welcome!

Troubleshooting

In case of any problems, crashes, freezes try:

1. Restart the game (d´uh)

2. Re-download the mod
> Go to MODS directory (.../My Games/CivBE/MODS)
> Delete Rising Tide of Aliens

3. Delete CivBECoreDatabase.db, CivBEDebugDatabase.db and CivBEModsDatabase.db
> Go to cache directory (.../My Games/CivBE/cache)
> First backup these files!
> Then KILL THEM!
> Alternatively you can just delete them

Do *NOT* update if you want to continue your saved game!
I do not guarantee save game compatibility between updates. It might or might not work.
If you do not update, please keep in mind the possible bugs you can encounter (although if the mod worked fine for you for several dozen turns, it shouldnt break... i think... )
