You are linking to version 2. That version typically works for everyone, but the mass and energy bars are only in ver3 beta, and some people (myself included) seem to have trouble with it crashing the game. Unless someone else has a solution, you may want to stick with ver2.

As mentioned above, Supreme Economy is great, but the latest (v3 beta) crashes my game too.

Instead, grab the previous Version 2 -- it breaks down what you are spending your mass and energy on, and for newer players, it can be VERY informative, and will help you better understand things like energy stalls, and the effect of over-assisting things like mex-upgrades, or multiple projects.

Supreme Economy v2 also has the same functionality as described for Mex Manager -- that is, a display of how many MEXs you control, as well as how many are currently upgrading, and how many lack full mass storage, all with 'click to select' functionality. I use it with Gaz.

Is there a script out there to select all IDLE Drones?
Also, select all T2 Drone Stations (to upgrade them)?

No that's not Mex Manager, MM is much more simple than that.

Here's the link I was on about, Mex Manager is on there amongst many, many others. I haven't got a clue what most of them are but usually Google helps find a forum post about you're interested in.

GAZ_UI and hotstats here too. GAZ_UI is used by quite a few top players I think.

I use GAZ_UI, Mex Manager and Hotstats.

GAZ_UI has many useful tweaks, including a display of how much you've reclaimed and also larger icons on the build menu. Each feature can be turned on or off in the standard menu. There is a detailed post on the gaspowered forums about everything it does.

Mex Manager gives you a panel to show how many mexes of each tech you have, and whether they are currently upgrading. It also shows you if you have any not surrounded by storage.

Hotstats gives you detailed graphs at the end of the game showing how each player performed in pretty much every way you can think of, e.g. Mass in, units built, kills etc.

I've got a link to a vast repository of mods at home but I'm on my phone at the moment. I'll find the link later and post it.

Also Supreme Economy is meant to be brilliant, but it crashes for me. I think it clashes with one of my other mods but I haven't got round to testing it yet.

Useful mods

2012-05-28T13:34:32+02:00

This topic is for mods that can allow you to be a better player; not for graphic or unit mods etc.

In other words: they must work when playing ranked ladder.

Isen tipped me that he used a hotkey mod. This must be Zulan's Hotbuild

I am sure there are useful economy mods and GUI mods to be had, too. Anyone got the links to the best mods, please?
