About this mod
Changes dash action on timeline adding ability to use shields and fire while dashing. Shield dashing is included
- Permissions and credits
What changes outside of Radionecrotic's 1.2 update, well it doesn't change how Wait ans Shield actions were changed only changing Dash action to only occupy movement timeline. That's all, i post it here so other players that won't check on Phantom Brigade discord would see it.
Description:
Do you have heavy mech with heavy shield? And do you want to bash enemy with it? Maybe you have light mech and want to have some stile points? Now you can, changing dash action let you shield dash into enemy and let it to crashing state, collision damage would be absorbed by shield, making shield dashing a valid strategy in game. Also now you can shoot with weapons while dashing in the air, but be careful with overheating.
What mod does:
- Change the way Dash action show on timeline, it showing like 1 row action on movement other then torso + movement action as it is in vanilla
- Remove changed Wait option from Aerrus and Radionecrotic mod and returning wait action back to vanilla
- Remove changing in shield duration, returning shield duration back to vanilla
- Let you add shield, attack(primary/secondary) action over dash action, adding ability to shield dash and shoot while dashing
Known problems:
- Overheat meter on heat action + dash not showing maximum amount of heat, leading to mech overheat by attack + dash combo
- Dash try to set after shield action because of game logic, you can easily drag dash action on timeline after 1.1 update of PB
- Targeted shield will turn to enemy it was target to, leading to damaging other mech parts in the process, to prevent it set shield targeting on floor by Ctrl + Left click on ground facing enemy you want to dash into
