Galaxy Mod - Artifacts

I've reworked all 8 alien artifacts to be more interesting and much more balanced, instead of all being a generic +5 turret upgrade with ZERO energy cost.

 

They're now all a different type of "legendary" tier upgrade (with some unique twists). I intend for them to be very powerful, but very costly to use and also potentially not the best-in-slot legendary.

Hi, could it be that you changed the descriptions of the Xsotan Artefacts?

 

{ltext = "This system has 4 vertical "%_t},
{ltext = "scratch on its surface."%_t}

This is what the systems 4 through 8 now all say. I'm pretty sure the higher systems used to report a different number of scratches and/or describe a different defining characteristic about the Xsotan Artefacts.

Fixed! Thanks.

 

I added the other part of the tooltip description and just copied those all but forgot to update them all. Hehe.

 

BTW, it just reflects the roman numeral of the artifact so "XSTN-K III" has 3 scratches, etc...
