Alpha 2

drum roll

Alpha 2 is here!

This release brings many improvements as well as new features. Take a look at out Trello board for more details.

If you are interested to be an alpha tester, we are very glad to have you!

Please be aware of the following:

• Required: be able to put up with bugs, poor balancing, etc
• Required: be able to communicate your findings to us
• Nice to have: participate in design discussions

If you are still interested, please join us at X2Modding discord!

To install the mod, please use the following 4 mods:

• X2WOTCCommunityHighlander - version here (unsubscribe from workshop)
• SquadSelectAnytime - workshop version
• robojumperSquadSelect - workshop version
• Covert Infiltration - attached below

There are also the following compatibility bridges that you can use (depending on what other mods you use):

• CIBridge_LW2Secondary (for LW2 Secondary Weapons)
• CIBridge_SMG (for Long War SMG Pack)

So, what's next?

As of this release, we are entering a feature freeze period during which

• We will take a break from heavy development work. Note that this means that we will not be implementing new features but we will still fix any bugs (if any are found)
• Focus heavily on design aspect of mod development

I expect this period to last 2-4 weeks, depending on how discussions go. The current plan for discussions is on trello (1st list)

So, what's next?

As of this release, we are entering a feature freeze period during which

• We will take a break from heavy development work (the project started in October!). Note that this means that we will not be implementing new features but we will still fix any critical bugs, if any are found
• Focus heavily on design aspect of mod development and decide on our further goals

I expect this period to last 2-4 weeks, depending on how discussions go
