Tribes 2 - Construction Mod (v.0.69a)

Yesterday we posted an interview with Mike Johnston, one of the designers of the Team Rabbit 2 mod for Tribes 2, and we though you might enjoy hearing a little bit about the other mod that's going. Tribes 2 modified several of the original vehicles from Tribes and introduced a several new ones. The vehicles include hovering ground vehicles and high flying turbogravs. Wildcat Grav Cycle edit edit source A light, one-person, weaponless vehicle that hovers just above the ground.

Tribes 2 Mod That You Can Create Platforms Walls And Building And Ect.

---------------------------

We just like to build stuff.

---------------------------

Up to now mods like ninja mod and warped where used to create the wierdest of structures.

However these mods being combat orientated where limited in their building flexiblity.

Therefor the man with the vision started 'the construction mod' (or is it the mod named 'construction'?)

Anyway this mod will feature tools to make building easier, better, more realistic, more balanced and all that what other modders promise.

It might someday very well feature gameplay that suits builders as well as non-builders.

However until that day this mod remains for the one intrested in building and only building.

But hey, there's a builder in everyone.

[[Beacon switching]]

-use the beacon key to switch. Legend hand of god cheats.

[[Border snapping]]

-When deploying on the far edge of an object the object will snap correctly to the border.

Set to launch for Steam on January 31st, the game promises to ignite the solar system with a unique blend of long-range combat and cosmic chaos. A spiritual follow-up to Team Jolly Roger’s last game Interplanetary, Worbital takes the premise of flinging artillery across the solar system and amps it up with real-time strategy combat and gleeful destruction. Players will command planets that bristle with gigantic guns and lasers, exotic fortifications like planetary shields, and even maniacal doomsday weapons such as the World Rammer. Worbital beta. Worbital is also planned to be released for PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch later this year.
