Description
Yo dawg I put a mod in your mod...
In other words, this is an add-on modification for Elite (any version) meant for labbing shit. HQs will produce huge amounts of Requisition, Power and Global Resource automatically (if you spend more than 1 million each you might run out) and Tier 2 & Tier 3 upgrades will finish in 1 second.
This mod will only overwrite the HQ and T2/T3 upgrade of each race; it is very unlikely we will be touching any of those in a patch, so this will probably work with any version of Elite for the foreseeable future.
You have to wait for normal build times and cooldowns, but leaving individual units untouched guarantees compatibility and makes the mod easy to make (instead of spending hours changing every damn entity one by one and then having to update it for every patch).
Installation
I could make this more automatic, but I kind of CBA and maybe it's good to have a screening process for using this...
1. Make a copy of your Elite mod folder (doesn't matter if it's "final" or "beta" or whatever the original folder name is) and name it Elite_lab.
2. Run the installer above. It will overwrite said HQ/upgrade files and give you an Elite_lab module file so you can launch the copy you made.
Running
Run the Elite_lab mod via Desktop shortcut (installer makes you one) or the Steam library properties method.

Sweet.
Re: Elite labbing build
oooOOOOoo. Handy. Thanks Lulgrim!
Re: Elite labbing build
Just made use of this. Thanks!
My 1v1 map - Imperial Plaza. Revisions are in progress so please check it out and give feedback!
Re: Elite labbing build
Sorry but I need things to be explained slowly.
This is a mod to accelerate the game if you want to try units and their abilities quickly without the normal game times, right?

Re: Elite labbing build
Right. It gives you tons of resources (including red) and the T2/T3 upgrades complete in one second.
Unit build times are unaffected, since they would all need to be changed individually

Re: Elite labbing build
Is this build current?
Re: Elite labbing build
Read the initial post. It works with every build you just need to make a copy of whatever version you want to lab and set it up.
Re: Elite labbing build
Feeling abit sheepish. Thanks
Re: Elite labbing build
Actually with the current build the AI is not inactive anymore and produces units.
Re: Elite labbing build
My wishlist for the next release:
1) the "lab" mode, like described above. Additionally, if units can be placed on the field before running the match, then we can experiment with a high level of granularity.
2) AI that plays more like an intelligent human player.

there is no "next release" thats the point.
its been made to work with all versions of ELITE as it will never be updated. there is a reason why the labbing build is still in 1.0, even though it was released in 2013
My Twitch where i occasionally stream myself pwning/getting pwned on elite mod, i seem to bounce between the two on a game to game basis. - http://www.Twitch.tv/Venkitsune

Re: Elite labbing build
You'd have to go through every ability you want to change in Cope's Toolbox, and change the "recharge_time" to whatever you want.

Re: Elite labbing build
Paste this file and folder into your Retribution folder. You'll be able to open it with the Elite shortcut. And be sure to make a copy of your original Elite.module file first so you can go back to playing the normal game by just renaming the copy "Elite".

Add this to your autoexec.lua in the main retribution folder
Code: Select all
_lab_entity_mods = {
"modifiers\\entity_modifiers\\cost_requisition_modifier",
"modifiers\\entity_modifiers\\cost_power_modifier",
"modifiers\\entity_modifiers\\cost_ticks_modifier"
}
_lab_upgrade_mods = {
"modifiers\\upgrade_modifiers\\cost_power_upgrade_modifier",
"modifiers\\upgrade_modifiers\\cost_requisition_upgrade_modifier",
"modifiers\\upgrade_modifiers\\production_speed_upgrade_modifier"
}
_lab_ability_mods = {
"modifiers\\ability_modifiers\\cost_waaagh_ability_modifier",
"modifiers\\ability_modifiers\\recharge_time_ability_modifier"
}
function apply_lab_modifiers(player, pbg_group, mod_type, modifiers, scale_factor)
for i = 1, World_GetPropertyBagGroupCount(pbg_group) do
local pbg_path = World_GetPropertyBagGroupPathName(pbg_group, i)
if pbg_path and pbg_path:find("%w+\\pvp") then
for _, mod_path in pairs(modifiers) do
local modifier = Modifier_Create(mod_type, mod_path, MUT_Multiplication, false, scale_factor, pbg_path)
Modifier_ApplyToPlayer(modifier, player)
end
end
end
end
function toggle_all_lab_mods()
apply_lab_modifiers(Game_GetLocalPlayer(), 0, MAT_EntityType, _lab_entity_mods, 0.01)
apply_lab_modifiers(Game_GetLocalPlayer(), 5, MAT_Upgrade, _lab_upgrade_mods, 0.01)
apply_lab_modifiers(Game_GetLocalPlayer(), 6, MAT_Ability, _lab_ability_mods, 0.001)
end
bind("Control+F12", "toggle_all_lab_mods()")
Now start Elite (any version will work) with -dev flag and hit ctrl+f12 when the game has started to reduce costs and cooldowns etc. No need for a separate lab mod and duplicate files.

Hi, me again. I wasn't able to find that autoexec.lua thing. I seached it in C disk but there were no results.
Do you have any spare ones left ?
Re: Elite labbing build
Just create a file with that name. You can also copy the code directly into the console
Elite labbing build

Only thing Im worried about is if I use this, will it be all in English or not?

I don't think it affects your locale in any way, so I don't see why it would.
