v0.56.0-beta

Fixes

• Fixed ABM-L disappearing on mission load: VehicleDefinition is now re-added to Encyclopedia on every AfterLoad call so it survives scene/mission reloads
• Added Spawner.TrySpawnVehicle postfix to detect saved ABM-L units by jsonKey and reassign definition + COIL stats on spawn
• ABM-L identity (name, definition, COIL stats) now persists correctly through save/load cycle

Previous (v0.55)

• Fixed ABM-L units reverting to LADS identity on spawn
• Updated ABM-L description: 1MW COIL Anti-Ballistic Missile Laser, 120s fire time
• Map name shows as "ABM-L Trailer"

v0.52-beta - COIL Laser Mod

v0.52-beta - COIL Laser Mod

Balance Changes

• COIL ground damage default reduced from 10% to 2.5% — you can still kill ground targets but it takes serious ammo commitment
• Medusa laser ground damage default reduced from 1% to 0% — effectively no damage to surface targets

New: ABM-L Trailer Ammo System

• ABM-L trailer now has limited fire time (default 120 seconds) and must be resupplied
• Ammo trucks and ammo containers will automatically resupply depleted trailers
• Configurable via ABMLUseAmmo (default: true) and ABMLFireSeconds (default: 120)

Config Options

• GroundDamagePercent (default: 2.5%) — COIL damage vs ground/ships/buildings
• MedusaLaserGroundDamagePercent (default: 0%) — Medusa laser vs ground
• ABMLUseAmmo (default: true) — enable ammo system on ABM-L trailer
• ABMLFireSeconds (default: 120) — seconds of fire time before resupply needed

Install

Drop NuclearOptionCOILMod-0.52-beta.dll into BepInEx/plugins/ (remove any old COIL DLLs)

Looking for balance feedback — especially on ground damage percentages and ABM-L ammo duration.

v0.51-beta - COIL Laser Mod

v0.51-beta - COIL Laser Mod

New in 0.51

• Gear Safety: COIL laser is now safed on the ground / gear down — won't fire until airborne with gear retracted

• ABM-L Nuclear Priority Targeting: ABM-L trailer now instantly targets and prioritizes nuclear cruise missiles over regular missiles, with zero lock time
• Medusa Laser Ground Damage Nerf: Medusa's laser now deals only 1% damage to surface targets (configurable)
• Configurable Ground Damage: COIL ground damage percentage is configurable (default 10%)
• GPLv3 License

Config Options

• AutoFireAllowed (default: false) — must be enabled to use auto-fire
• AutoFireDefault (default: false) — start with auto-fire on
• GroundDamagePercent (default: 10%) — COIL damage vs ground/ships/buildings
• MedusaLaserGroundDamagePercent (default: 0%) — Medusa laser vs ground
• AutoFireSwitchDelay (default: 1s) — delay between auto-fire target switches

Install

Drop NuclearOptionCOILMod-0.51-beta.dll into BepInEx/plugins/ (remove any old NuclearOptionCOILMod.dll)

Looking for balance feedback — especially on ground damage percentages and auto-fire behavior. Let me know what feels right.
