Allegiance
25th Anniversary Map Update!
Allegiance 25th Anniversary Game!
Congratulations to everyone involved past and present that contribute to keeping Allegiance alive, epic and fun! The community has been through so much. We've grown up together and it's truly a coming-of-age story. Some players' kids play the game now and enjoy the consistently unique experiences that Allegiance provides. It's awe inspiring. Through all of the challenges in-game and out, Allegiance persists.
Allegiance has always been at its heart a competitive team-based game. It takes a coordinated team to unleash the full potential of winning strategies. Behind the scenes are many players who have spent and continue to spend countless volunteer hours contributing to Allegiance's greatness, be it by developing cores, maps, code, art, events, videos, even entire factions and all of the testing and balancing that goes with that. There are many heroes.
Included in the rank of Hero are all of the players. Much respect to the players who start small games from 1v1 to get the games going up to 10v10 and beyond. Special recognition to all of the players who've played for years and keep coming back to share laughs and awesome moments. And to new players who recognize the potential for unique epic experiences and tackle the learning curve: We love you! Three cheers for Allegiance players!
Join us all on Sunday March 30th at 3pm EDT for the biggest game of the year, our 25th anniversary game.
See you in space!
25th Anniversary Update!
Allegiance turns 25! And Weed and Paps have a new core and maps!
------------- Changes --------------------------------------------------------------
Remove all floating treasures except for Booster2, LtBooster1, Retrobooster.
Re-release missile textures, reduce size to 128x128 for game performance.
The intentions were good, nobody can notice
how good the missile looks going 400mps and then end of life-ing.
Adjust ship turn rates to 2 decimal places.
Adjust ship turn torques to a whole number.
This is cleaning up unnecessary 4 decimal place, values. Will it have
an optimization effect on game performance? Unknown.
Tactical:
Increase cost to 5000 (from 3500) credits: (slow down Tac early game)
Combat drone 2, EMP Mine 1, EW Sniper Rifle 1, EW Utl Cannon 2,
Hvy Combat drone 1, LRM Hunter 2, LRM Killer 1, Sig cloak 2, SRP Killer 1,
Hunter 1/2/3 missile flight signature = 2 (from 1) "200% signature"
Hunter 1/2/3 cargo payload = 10 (from 5) original missile count
SF will mount 2 missiles/rack, Adv SF 3 missiles/rack,
Lxy SF 4 missiles/rack
Hunter 1/2/3 reload time = 1.5 seconds (from 2) "between missile launches"
Reloading rack still takes 5 seconds.
Let's try this without modifying damage. These missiles are quicker to
get to target than the old Hunter.
Proximity Mine 1 damage = 325 (from 300)
Proximity Mine 2 damage = 420 (from 400)

Rocket Targeting cost = 2500 (from 9375)
EW Gauss cost = 5000 (from 3500)
Shipyard

Reasoning to buff stations is their tech bases do take 5 minutes to
build meanwhile enemy is researching bomb rush.
Lt Carrier deleted
Sup/Exp/Tac/AdvSup/AdvExp/AdvTac bases cost = 15000 (from 10000)
Due to the fact they get the enhanced/advanced ships immediately
upon tech base build / upgrade. OH is still cheaper than most factions
when it comes to total cost of ship development being cost 0.8.

Supremacy has reduced cost for all the parts (2500 generally) to outfit
Tactical will now somewhat mirror this at 3500 instead of 5000 per part
Expansion will remain 5000 since they have less parts to buy to outfit

Allegiance's 24th Anniversary Games! -Sunday March 24th at 3pm EDT!
Thanks to all developers and players who have kept this game alive. You're all legends!
AC 13 Released!
A new core version from Weedman!
ac_13
Tac:
EW Sniper Damage class = 05 (meaning it does less damage to med hull / utl hull / hvy class and extra hvy class hull and lt/med shield)
Draconium:
Disable Gunships
Warden Ship takes Gunship's place
Add Warden minimap icon
Add PE Taser to Starbase useable on Warden as long range anti fighter weapon
Add ta_taser.ogg sound clip
Modify Sounddef for ta_taser.ogg clip
Implement new Fighter model
Implement new hitbox on Outpost - Expansion - Supremacy
EW StlGalv damage per shot = 2.5 (from 1.75) for 20 dmg/second
Valkyrie:
All Stations have lt base shield, meaning the shield can be gunned down for TT or HTT capture, this includes Garrison - Starbase - Exp - Adv Exp - Sup - Adv Sup - Tac - Adv Tac - SY - Drydock
All Stations have major base hull, meaning impervious to EW Galv, this includes Outpost - Refinery - Teleport
StationShield Repair = 1 (from 2)
StationHull Repair = 1.1 (from 2)
ShipSpeed = 1.1 (from 1)
ShipSensors = 1.1 (from 1)

Cost = 2000 (from 3000)
SRM EMP no longer requires Expansion Base to rearm. In the event of HTT docking to rearm even if Expansion
is lost, the missiles will replentish now. You must still research them. Once developed, or stolen, you will
never lose them. You will lose HTT if you lose the ship.
EW A-BS Can for TF mirrors this and no longer requires Expansion Base to rearm.
Remove Observer (unused from DN era to observe matches)
Remove Pre/Def 60 / Def 62 from factions Global pointing to unused string. Remove Def 240 from Rix. Cleaning up core.
Remove Station Shield 1&2 development (unused development)
Remove EW Phaser 23/Mini Phaser 123 (unused) For some reason EW Phaser1 is being stubborn and I have not found a way to delete it
(without crashing the core doing so).
Remove 2 PW Skyripper development / PE Skyripper development (unused as Skyripper part is included with med class development)
Remove VOID dev 399 from Garrison (any disabled tech or development will simply have a pre of 399 to disable it's use.
List of unused items in core: Dev Vulcan Cannon 2, Dev Aleph Res 2, Dev Aleph Res 3, Part EW Phaser
Remove unused "Cashbox" probe 1/2/3 (this was a hack to allow allied teams to transer money to other teams by ejecting probes worth cash to them.)
Was disabled and not in use.
IC:
Remove Light Class development from SY (unused) IC must still buy med class for Attack Carrier/ Destroyer/ Assault/ Frigate
Bios:
Remove Frigate (unused ship)
Gigacorp:
Remove Lxy Sf (MS version Med Shield- unused ship)

Draconium:
Remove Shield Probe (unused technology)
Attack Carriers:
Mass 2500 (from 1000)
Destroyers:
Reduce ammo to 1200 (from 1800), which may still be too much ammo. Left Rix at 1800 ammo.

Lifespan = 1.25 (from 1)
Range = 2500m same as before
Damage = 100 (from 80)
Area Damage = 50
Increased damage of LT as Skycap was probably better.
Modify Sounddef.mdl for Mars base/booster sounds.
Modify Missionbrief.mdl for new Mars faction launch.

All ships have access to a booster to compensate for poor acceleration.
Add capital ship booster and sound effects for interior and exterior.
Add faction bases (standard assortment - op ref tp galvable)
Add faction ships (standard assortment)
Miner drones have 0.25 he3 capacity. 0.5 he3 mining speed. 1.1 he3 yield.
Ability to buy 12 miner drones. 2000 each every 90 seconds.
Miners HitPoints 1/3 of normal miners. Miner 400HP, Enhanced Miner 533HP, Advanced Miner 666HP.
Miners load Med Shield. Miner mass = 70. Typical miner mass = 100. To offset the poor acceleration
to assist in lining up on doors. The miners will need to be managed I noted that even though
there was plenty of helium on rocks, they will leave a sector with a good amount of helium to go elsewhere.
This may have to do with the number of drones quietly calling dibs on a he3 rock to mine it.
It should go without saying Refineries are important for the economy.
I forsee managing the miners to be a full time job.
