[BtS] Star Trek Mod

I just got done playing some of this and I do have it say its AWSOME.
I've only noticed one problem with it though. I've been using the Klingons and when I get the Cloaking technology. The Cloak promotion is not always available to the units. For example. I have 3 type IV Lights. None of them could get the Cloaking promotion ( yes I leveled them up many times ). However... my Light I could get the Cloaking promotion when leveled up. I don't know.. but it seems alittle odd to me. Also when setting raging barbarians. It seems that all computer players die within 30 minutes.
Also, Could I make a suggestion if you don't mind.
Would it be possable for you put random events into the game.. such as.. for example.. quests
example=
Quest: The Sword of Kah'less ( to get quest you must have Warriors Code as governments religion )
Objective: It is believed that the Sword of Kah'less is somewhere in space aboard an old ruin Spaceship. Search threw the debris for the Sword of Kah'less. If anyone searchs the reckage before you do the quest is failed. ( or you could have it alittle more like the show ) It is believed that the Sword of Kah'less is hidden somewhere on a distant planet. Settle on the planet where the Sword is to complete the quest.
If anyone settles on this planet before you do. The quest is failed.
Reward: Maybe reward could be something like this. +1 happiness & +1 experince to all star systems with "Warriors Code"

.Well, welcome LordRuin!
You can presently get Cloaking Device with Combat I promotion (so any battle experience can get you one and the Evangelism civic might help as well). Cloaking Device has been extensively discussed in posts # 714, 719-20, 724-6, 755-6 and 777. I agree it could use improvement of some kind.
As for events, they have been temporarily removed, but see post # 752. (Your example isn't the best choice, as Sword of Kah'less is a Wonder, but I like the idea.)
Also, be sure to check out the new Star Trek Mod forum. Here's the link for the forum.

@LordRuin: If you don't have the 50 gold necessary for the cloak, the promotion won't be available. It won't even show up, in fact.
I downloaded the mod, patch and art and sound files and put them in the correct places. However when I attempt to play the game it gets all the way to telling me its my turn then an error message pops up stating "Failed to compress game data" then I CTD. Any ideas on what I may have done wrong?
Thanks

Are you loading from a save from beta 2? The game has a hard time loading saves when there have been too many changes to the files.
I never played beta 2 so I have no save to load, I downloaded the ones on the first page then attempted to play

I noticed the questions on mutliplayer and I did do it with some friends and it worked fine in beta 2 at least so I will try it as soon as I can with beta 3.

I've been seeing that with DS9 a lot (as in multiple times each turn). No idea what causes it, as I don't recall messing with that code anywhere!

DS9 is a separate mod, so I thought the problem was specific to it. You post indicates that it isn't. The only thing I can link to it is large empires and construction ships. Unfortunately I don't understand AI code at all, so this problem will likely never be fixed.
@all: All versions of my mod mods will realse now in the new forum here:

Cloak promotion should only make units with the cloak promotion "invisible" when outside of cities. This solves all issues with cloaked ships not defending or capturing cities.
Another thought...just have the cloak promotion act like a flanking and first strike combo.
After even more thought, how about making "invisible" ships like submarines in civ 4, and "hidden" units from FF.

They do work like submarines in civ, actually. They can be seen by units with the Tacheyon Detector promotion. I think that the city stuff with cloaked units served to balance them, as this way you can't just cloak an entire invasion fleet to make conquering enemies easier.

I was just playing the game on Cadet level (it's late and I wanted something easy to screw around with). This may be the low difficulty level, but civilizations were being destroyed left, right and center! I didn't even have raging barbarians on and every two turns I'd get "The Breen have been destroyed", "The Klingons have been destroyed", "The Hirogen have been destroyed", and on.
Are the barbarians a bit overpowered or is that a result of the Cadet difficulty ?

Do you have the patch? It fixes some issues, one of which has to do with barbarians.
