Space Update

Introduction

Greetings! This is a description of the Metastasis EM 1.1 version, a custom map for WC3. This is the second major version within the EM branch. The first version (1.0) was dedicated to a new kind of main enemy (evil) - Telepaths. The new version contains a wide variety of changes, from the state table to space nebulae.

The development was carried out from February 10, 2021 to May 27, 2022.

List of changes

New space station - Reverendo

Added a new location and a space object with an unusual name - Reverendo. This is the first new location in a long time.

Reverendo — station of unknown origin. A few years ago, it was found in a cluster of asteroids at the edge of a star system. The station was brought from this sector by the U.S.I to conduct research.

Peculiarities:

Feature - Random stars in the system

The yellow sun has always been at the center of the Metastasis gaming sector. This is not just a decoration, the sun damages objects nearby and affects the lighting of locations.

Continuing the trend in environment randomization, a new mechanism was introduced - a random type of star in the system. The following parameters depend on what type of star appeared:

  1. Star damage on approach.
  2. Orbit of the planets.
