Yitzi's Unofficial SMAX Patch Up to v.2.5b -and Counting

Tamalak, Yitzi hasn't been by yet, but a tech guy tells me I'm giving you a bum steer.

-However, there's a project well along, SMAC-in-SMAX to suppress all the Crossfire features and effectively play vanilla AC on the X engine, so you can use all the patches made for X. He's looking into that, and hopefully I'll have more for you soon.
 
Here's the thread: http://alphacentauri2.info/index.php?topic=8413.msg47165#msg47165

They got hung up on eliminating fungal towers, so it's not entirely finished, but I understand it works. Draz has nominated making fungal towers and native life toggleable for the next YitziPatch update, so this might get finished yet - and should already be compatible with the patches aside from most of kyrub's.
 
Yitzi's unofficial SMAX patch 3.4b

http://alphacentauri2.info/index.php?topic=17283.msg85167#msg85167
Fixed an old bug in my patch, in which Nano Factory would not properly halve upgrade cost.

Now it will halve upgrade cost, though it still will not afterward round down to the next 10 as in the unpatched version. If the ability to add rounding is requested, it will be placed in the next full patch version.
 
Oh my goodness looks like I can actually play SMAX under Win10 now without terranx.exe crashing!!!! Thank you so much!
 
I am just wondering, I am playing with the Olympians. (+1 drone for every 4 citizens). I built the human genome project. I am seeing 1 drone 2 citizens and 1 talent. Yet getting drone riots.

Is this a bug in the patch?

Thanks.

Olympians are a custom faction from Binary Dawn but they're only supposed to get an extra drone for every five citizens. Of course, any custom faction could be named Olympians.

Can't think of anything in Binary Dawn which would cause this sort of havoc but two people have had trouble (of a different sort) mixing it with Yitzi's patch so far.

I've been away from the community for a while (it's been a tough few months), but the first thing you might want to check is whether you're playing with some of the alternate drone rules by mistake. One of those rules causes a bonus-drone faction rule to produce "superdrones", and another one causes "superdrones" to count double, so if you're using both of those that would cause the problem. Open up alphax.txt, and check what it lists under "drone rules code".

If that is the issue (and I'm sure it is), then you have to decide whether you want to play with the modified rules (which makes the Olympians/University/etc. somewhat harder because you can't use a lot of specialists to prevent having a lot of drones that need dealing with) or the base ones.

Yitzi's Unofficial SMAX patch 3.5
This adds more moddable features, and more bugfixes. Of particular note are increased options for faction abilities, and the ability to mod how many worms are produced by a fungal pop (details for which are provided in a text file labeled PopWorms).
