Enhancement Mod Main Features

  • A full set of 20 new challenging levels under “Hard Mode”
  • A 2-Player split screen VS mode. This will have player 2 take control of the enemy’s side.
  • Switched to FastROM

Quality of Life Additions

  • R-button can be held to speed up the game by 8x (single player mode only). This only works during the main game (when building units).
  • X-Button can be used to toggle MM Arm (only way to do so in 2-Player mode)
  • Y-Button can be used to clear land.
  • Player side missile & Metal Marine launch animation is now skipped when attacking.
  • The Messages On/Off setting is defaulted to ‘Off’ and the setting is preserved across levels.
  • On the password screen L/R can be used to change the level.

 

Notes on VS Mode

  • To attack in VS Mode, rather than clicking attack and going to the attack screen it is now done by selecting the attack menu and then picking units for the attack with “A”. Once the desired units have been selected the “Start” button can be pressed to open the attack screen. Now the missile/MM/ICBM target locations can be selected. The attacking player’s island is never shown.
  • When Metal Marines attack, only the attacking player will be able to control their Metal Marines.
  • Player 2’s unit graphics will look like Player 1’s (red color scheme and facing up-right). Because of this, Player 2’s island is mirrored except during attacks so the missiles/AAs are pointing in the correct direction.
  • The following menu options have been removed for VS Mode: Messages, Grid, Info, and MM Arm (use the X-Button to change MM’s weapons instead).
  • There is an option in the password screen to control whether all starting units should be removed in VS Mode.
  • Limit of units has been increased from 64 to 80 in VS mode.
