is it just me...or do batteries no longer work on a federation vessel...
-
How are you patched?
-
2.5.5.0
-
fresh clean install with patch...as well...
-
It does work. TO A DEGREE. I tested in Skirmish.
It has always been a tricky proposition about getting batteries to work in SFC2. I have never really figured out the complete conditions for where and how it works. But I can tell you that they do give off power.
Two items that DEFINITELY drew power from battery in my Skirmish battle v AI are: Erratic, and Defensive Tractors.
I couldn't get Photons to draw power off batteries (I guess that's how one most easily notice the discrepancy, in the weapon systems) And I have NOT tested others races weapons.
(BTW just food for thought: Maybe Taldren implemented that "Warp power" only rule for photons?)
-
Phasers will charge off of the batteries if no other power is available, photons (most heavies?) won't. I believe maulers depend on proper functioning of the batteries in order to function at all.
-
Only thing Federation Batteries are useful for is ECM/ECCM. Nice to get a little burst of speed our of it while keeping ECCM up.

thx...just been awhile since ive flown a fed...remember them working before...
