2.4 Competitors Patch (Dual Command Mode)

Dual Command Mode is a mod for Homeworld Remastered 2.1 which allows you to control two fleets at once in a multiplayer/skirmish match to make up for an odd number of players. This mod also features balance changes and bug fixes.

Description

In multiplayer you'll often end up with an odd number of players which means you either need to add AI, fight in uneven teams or FFA all of which are not always optimal. Dual Command Mode allows one player to control two players worth of units. You will start with:

• Two motherships
• Two carriers
• Double the collectors
• Double the usual starting RUs
• Double the unit cap
• And double the research cost to ensure you pay the full price for two players worth of units

New Deathmatch Options

• Enable/disable minelayers
• Enable/disable platforms
• Enable/disable Dual Command Mode
• Observer/spectator race

To Enable Dual Command

• Change your race to a 2X version of the race
• Add a CPU and put it in the slot you would like to have as your second main
• Set the CPU's race to the same race as you (must be 2X)

Notes

• The CPU's units will be given to you at the start of the game so make sure it is the same race as you (must be 2X)
• If they are not the same race you will not be able to build from their production
