This is the completion of Defiants original idea and mod so a lot of credit goes to him. His mod was quite rudimentary and I consider this the completed version.
What does this mod do?
----------------------
This mod enables you to send Brex to Engineering and communicate with him via the main screen. While in Engineering Brex works more efficiently!
- Boost to engines: 5%
- Boost to energy output: 5%
- Boost to shield recharge: 5%
- Boost to phaser recharge: 5%
- Boost to pulse weapon/torpedo recharge: 5%
- Boost to repair teams: 15%
Requirements:
-------------
- Bridge Commander
- Bridge Commander 1.1 Patch
- Kobayashi Maru 2011.10
Installation instructions:
--------------------------
- Copy the folder 'scripts' inside 'Brex to Engineering' to your Bridge Commander folder. Overwrite if asked
- Don't forget to activate the 'Brex to Engineering' Mutator inside 'Configure' -> 'Customize' -> 'Mutators'
How to use this mod:
--------------------
- A button called "Go to Engineering" now appears in Brexs menu. Click it to send him to the Engineering deck
- Once in Engineering you can contact him by pressing F5 (or a different "Talk to engineering" button if you reassigned it) or by clicking the "Contact Engineer" in the XOs (Saffi) menu
- You can recall Brex by clicking "Call Engineer to Bridge" in the XOs (Saffi) menu
- Now you can also assign keyboard keys in 'Configure' -> 'Controls' -> 'Misc.' to either send 'Brex to Engineering' or to 'Call Engineer to Bridge'
Changes compared to previous versions:
--------------------------------------
- There was a bug with the Elite Force II replacement crew where Brex got a weird permanent "tan" after returning from Engineering. This is now fixed
- Brex now says "Aye aye Sir" (with lip sync) each time you give him the order to go to Engineering instead just leaving without a word
- Added a door sound for when Brex enters or exits the turbolift (they were completely quiet before)
- A assortment of game destroying bug fixes.
- The option to send Brex to Engineering now only appears if a Bridge has a Engineering deck (whats the point of sending him to Engineering in a shuttle?) The supported bridges are: "Galaxy", "Sovereign", "Draxon" and "EBorg"
V 1.1
------
- Brex now has a 50% chance to either say "Aye aye Sir" or "Aye, Captain". Just for variety
V 1.2
------
- This version is now compatible with the Ship Launcher. Brex needs to be present on the bridge if you want launch in a shuttle otherwise you will not be able to takeoff (to prevent bugs)
- The mod now detects a new bridge correctly each time you board a shuttle or land on a different ship and activates or deactivates the button accordingly
- The mod now also detects if the bridge changed should you start a Quick Battle and activates or deactivates the button accordingly
- You can now assign shortcuts(keys) in the Main Menu to send Brex to Engineering or to call him back to the Bridge should you need it
V 1.3
------
- This version is now compatible with Random Bridge Crew Reports
- Crewmembers now continue their random reports even if Brex is in Engineering
- Brex now gives his report after you press the 'Report' button in his menu while he is in Engineering
V 1.4
------
- This version is now compatible with the Transporter. Brex needs to be present on the bridge before transporting
- Added some extra variety to Brexs responses
V 1.5
------
- The correct Engineering set is now loaded when a new ship is boarded (Galaxy or Sovereign based)
- New HQ textures for the Engineering set. The one for the Sovereign is a slightly modified version of Doug27Mobleys 'Engineering Background' mod (https://www.gamefront.com/games/bridge-commander/file/engineering-background)
Let me know if you discover a bug or if I forgot to give credit to someone please. Hope you enjoy!
