Needs to disable Constructor Auto-Reclaim/Assist widget at start, or at least make the factory wreck un-reclaimable.

Also, game ended prematurely. Not sure what happened, but I think the CAI lost its commander to the neutrals. >.>

If that wasn't intended, the CAI starting with an actual assault force to start getting territory with while you spend a minute rezzing the factory is a major disadvantage I could see new players struggling with. Especially with the neutrals to hinder expansion.

1. Ada spawns in the middle of an enemy base. She's attacked by 2 bandits and an outlaw and starts beamlasoring em.
2. Another enemy is shown battling against some pyros with zeus.
3. Cut to Ada who has an enemy outlaw standing next her, which has slowed her to 50%. She's also being shot by a lotus turret. Ada, surprisingly calmly, but slightly confused because of this all, asks "What's happening here, Lilith?"
4. Lilith gives an answer. Ada finishes off the outlaw and drops to 7% HP.
5. The battle commander fellow asks Ada about her identity. But all he gets for an answer is static, since the lotus (probably) has finished Ada off. GG!

Sounds like the trigger supposed to make all the bad guys explode failed. >___<

Hmm, guess I screwed something up when updating it. Grumble grumble will look into it.

RIGHT it was because it reset the version back to stable when I updated it. It needs a test version to work properly.

There, fixed.

Allright, got to play it now, thanks!

These missions just keep getting easier tho... :) I'd played for 5 mins and had just secured the three mexes downhill from my base (yea, slow lol), when some free machines-aligned glaives spawned near my ramp out of nowhere. I killed em, and then the enemy commander said he had to retreat, and I won!

Edit: Tried a 2nd time, this time the enemy got pwnt by the neutrals on the 6:30 mark.

Mine never dies to the neutrals :(

It always goes down in seconds against my shieldball though. I think I can afford to give it a lot more modules.

At 9 minute machine's commander receive too much damage and teleported out. I didn't touch him. Maybe CAI always send commander to frontline?

I saw some typo in dialog when some voice says to Ada about "telling us as meatbag". There's some missing word I am sure.

I go down ramp with bandit, rezzed outlaw, then machine's bandit spawn and attack everyone else and suddenly it says "that's why outlaw is..." or something. I think you expect the bandit to come get you up the ramp, but it doesn't.

p/s: a really cool no stress (happy) mission with easy to follow ingame story! :)

[KingRaptor] no wonder CAI comm dies so easily in episode 2M
[KingRaptor] it can't decide whether it wants to rambo into a defensive line or maintain its distance so it keeps walking in and out of enemy turret/skirm range
[KingRaptor] also it doesn't know how to bring friends

So yeah, I guess I'm going to have to thin the neutrals out a bit.

That's a general cai problem. It runs into defense -> retreats a bit, makes an llt and goes in again. Rinse and repeat.

Especially against stingers this is a problem. I've seen cons trying to put an llt right next to the hlt.

Make the CAI's commander not walk around? Perhaps make it immobile or something.

I second the notion of forbidding that guy to leave some established territory, but therein lies the problem that i think the mission design implies the player delivering a tactical frontline assassination rather than completely levelling enemy's entire base just to get to some politico.

If the commander sits at base, it immediately becomes an 'exterminate everything' mission, in effect.

Btw, in my case it was killed by some emp (venom? faraday? i didn't watch, i was leveling base) assisted with a leveler.

Also, I'm going to need a mission where the enemy boi walks around eventually.

I'll see if I can't find the time to mess with the CAI code at some point.

Well, now CAI doesn't mex in range of the enemy. Coupled with the small buff I gave to their comm, he's guaranteed to not get his own foo' ass kicked before the 10 minute mark, or your money back!

Still might need to teach CAI to hold forces in defensive reserve instead of its current Attack Attack Attack mentality. I dunno.
