Sure not. It is pointless. This skill is dedicated to the storyline island. There are many hidden treasures in the deep sea. Random islands don't have those, so...
Ofc. you can write a random map generator script.

Acctually, there is. When your swimming skill increase, so does your swimming speed. Problem with random maps is, there might be not waters deep enough to increase swimming skill.

At lowest settings and after a few days on the island, fps goes down as the animal population goes up. Lions run underwater. Animals are colonising without any boundaries. unplayable. That's really a shame. I try to read the sys files but heck, too hard.
This map looks very promising though.

i had this problem some times ago in another map. try to just burn some animals, half your island will burn down, then the lagg is gone!

Hm... this mod has some really amazing features. Not perfect at all, but parts are already quite good!

Especially that 'beast'. AWESOME! Be true, where did you get it? I mean... this silly scaled crab besides a beast like that...
Seems just like you've learned modelling through the hole mod developing process.


This is not timely, but anyone else hunting this down might like to be able to find it. The "beast" model is by Psionic, and is available at http://www.psionic3d.co.uk/gallery/displayimage.php?album=2&pos=0. Hope that helps.

Hiya I've downloaded your mod and so far its awesome, however the player seems to be walking real slow and takes forever to get anywhere compared to the standard stranded 2! Is this just me or is it like that for everyone? Is there any way that I can speed the players walk up? Thanks

Just edit player speed. It's easy:
1. Open units.inf file by a Windows Notepad.
2. Find UNIT 1 (player) parameters.
3. Find "SPEED" option, and write there higher value.

That's all.

Thanks wojtek961, I went into the units file and changed the players speed however it did nothing at all! It works fine on the normal stranded but not this mod. Oh well, Thanks anyway

Help! At first, this mod was working fine. Now, when I load it up, my screen goes to black and I get a monitor message "Frequency Over Range". I've never had this before and can't understand why its here now. This happened after I tried to increase the speed in the Unit doc, but I dont' think they are connected. Also, I through away my first installed game, the whole folder including the original game, and started over, but now for some reason, I only see the VC bat file (i think thats what it is) and not the VC launch icon. I didn't think this would make a difference but now I have this problem. If anyone is still reading these forums and has a clue, please help. I also have a couple of quick script/random game questions. Thanks

Metahead - I don't know what could be the problem. Maybe some specific processing is crashing your game, but I have no idea what it could be. I'm sorry. Try to reinstall both Stranded 2 and VC mod.
Aethalia - go to the units.inf, find two instance of setting player speed (player_speed or something) and change it to desirable value, just as wojtek961 said. Make sure to edit units.inf file that is in VC mod folder, not in Stranded folder! I did it, it works.

As for lag issues in my mod - I checked my map for possible errors (like wrong definitions of spawn points), I reduced the number of fish and so on. I seriously can't find what could cause a lag.

I prepared a smaller map, I have to test it a little. I'm going to upload mod with minor tweaks (like players speed) and new map, if my testing shows no errors. Perhaps its better to make a few smaller maps, that one big laggy monster.

I'll keep you posted.

PS. I see that new version of Stranded Ext also implements fall damage feature, nice!

Sorry for necroposting, but it can't be helped. File is unavailable, Yamaxanadu has lost his copy. If someone has a copy, please respond - it'd be good for everyone to have it mirrored somewhere.
