Staredit Network -> UMS Assistance -> Upgrade 60 on psi storm
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kyuubi. on 2006-09-25 at 14:00:47
i have a few quick questions on that... i have read that the 'unused upgrade 60' effects psi storm somehow, and someone said it adds 8 damage per upgrade. does it only change the damage on affected units and not the duration?

and if you change it to like 50 points into the upgrade it'll do around 400 damage for that player or does it effect all?

I was the one that said it does 8 damage per upgrade, but that's 8 damage for a unit being under the storm for its entire duration, not 1 tick. It's 14+1 per time it gets hurt, and 112+8 for total duration, since storm hurts a unit 8 times if they sit under it the entire time. Upgrades do not change the duration.

Upgrades to storm will only affect the player that you have it upgraded for. So if you set the default for unused upgrade 60 to 50 upgrades, then all players will have the 50 unused upgrades; if you set default to 0 and that player to not use default and to have 50, then only that player has the 50 upgrades.

I'd recommend not setting default to 50, since it also affects a lot of things because psi storm, a list of which I'll find and post here later.

EDIT: Here's all the significant other things it has an effect on. You can set all the bonuses to 0 or whatever you want except for building armor, critter armor, and psi storm damage.

As for most of the weapons, don't expect an attack bonus, simply because a lot of them have 0 set to bonus.

And there's your list. Enjoy.

There's a slightly more complete list wink.gif

And as for the damage amount of Psionic Storm, I do believe it is 16+1 per interval, as opposed to fritfrat's 14+1 (that's what DatEdit is telling me).

Actually, Psionic storm is a series of 8 consecutive attacks (base attack is 14), so it's +1 per upgrade.

Just a question but where do you find this ominous unused upgrade dry.gif

ADDITION:
Woops, maybe I shoulda tried looking under the "unused" in the upgrades list before posting tongue.gif

Why bother listing all the units, weapons, and spells that don't actually get an upgrade.
Example, irradiate. So maybe it takes the upgrade, but it doesn't make it do more damage.
Armor on invincible units like powerups and Mineral fields, pointless.

Also, I tested it with 86 upgrades, dealt 100/800 damage. So it's base damage of 14.
