The Survivalist, by JasJack67, is the current continuation of massive mod, with a different name, managed by a different guy. It's a great game, from a survival standpoint, though it may take some time to get the hang of some things. From a modding or performance standpoint it has a few... inconveniences. Editor is disabled, it tends to lag for some people, not all the options and abilities are very straightforward (though JasJack67 tends to be fairly quick to answer questions, which helps), and the scripts are a bit on the hefty side considering they are written in s2s, and if memory serves they were not written very much with efficiency or neatness in mind, but I would have to verify that. Oh, also, when Editor is enabled (which can be done via a simple edit to game.inf), a lot of the things don't even have icons so... there's that. It also takes a long time on startup for some reason. Essentially, though, it's built for survival and not much else, hence the name. It's good for hard-core players, but path dependence is kinda built into the way it is developed. Anyway, as a survival game, it is quite enjoyable, and has an abundance of features and systems which make the quest for survival come to life. Stranded II Enhanced, by me. I made it. Self promotion time! Ok, anyway... I used some resources from both massive mod and the survivalist when making it. Aaaand basically about every other mod for Stranded II in existence (I remember quite literally searching the threads and file archives for mods that I hadn't already used, to make sure I got all of them). Basically, I took every object, unit, and item in every existing mod I could find, checked if it met my fairly high standards for quality/aesthetics, along with considerations for usefulness and coolness, and put them in my own mod. Same with maps and scripts. I gave credit where it was due, of course. Anyway, my technique of extracting the best part of other mods is the underlying meaning behind my name: ModJuicer. It's what I do. And the result? Well, it's a big mod, with lots of stuff, where you have the freedom to do basically anything if you wish. Except for some stuff, but I'm working on that. All functionality of vanilla Stranded II remains, because deleting preexisting features everyone has come to expect is a dick move. There's working tanks, planes that drop bombs, maps which have nukes which launch using their own targeting script (in one map they target the player, in one they target some various objects, and in one they target a monkey), tank/quad and tank/car combos, and that's just the stuff I 3d modeled and scripted myself (besides the plane 3d model, and the tank 3d model to some extent, which others did). Did I mention the modular building system? You can build custom tree houses, fire pits, huts, shelters, and a whole bunch of other stuff. Also tower defense now has two stages, the first being normal tower defense and the second stage being zombie mode, where things go dark, ghosts of the animals killed in the first stage will randomly appear and dissappear, and instead of regular animals there are zombies to defend against, and there are extra upgrades for the towers. Oh, and I even merged some source code so alt-tabbing doesn't make everything go black, and a buggy multiplayer is playable. Anyway, it's a mod with lots of fun possibilities, that I spent way too much of my time developing. Download link is in my signature.
