Re: Some of my ideas and questions
 
some new stuff

Comps for all

Atom detachment cannon :a extremely lsarge and powerfull device that takes a shp apart atom by atom

Gravity ball:since it cant make them unable to fire and do damge it just damages

Docking bay: a massive shipyard for bases

Lightining canon:fires a beam of electricity nothing special realy

Tasp:makes the enemy unable to attack they are so ecstatic

Psi storm:an attack that does decent damage and counts as crew quartersfor psy only

Dark religpous stuff

Huanter beam:for Dark religous causes a ship not to fire because they are being huanted

Dark beam:a beam of pure evil for dark religousd very powerfull

Doom beam:when combined with max temporal you use this to kill an enemyinstantly because you accelerayte them to the time when they arer all dead

Re: Some of my ideas and questions
 
the little docterhas made a comback i have found a way i hoipe to balance it i will add a new tech area Molocule manipulation witch requires max in Physics,level 2 in steller manip and the little docter can only destroy a tiny or small planet a little docter 1 can only destroy a tiny though and it aint so little any more and its requires 10 turns to reload eats a lot of supllys requires level 10 in Molocule manip andcant kill a sun and has poor range.

also some new components

Thruster:a engine that provides 1movement and requires 1 suplly and is only 5kt not bad i mean its practicly a freebie right and the primitives get it at a high level in ther techs as well

Training dock:a comp for bases that increaszes a ships exp when its in the same sector

All crew quarters now have boarding attack of 5 and a destroy when use so you cnan abandone youre ship and steal a better one

Re: Some of my ideas and questions
 
Thruster: WTH? Ten times the thrust density of the main engines?!? Ten times the fuel efficiency?!? S'cuse me, but can you say unbalanced?
A "thruster" should probably only be for bonus combat movement, or ECM-type bonus (from dodging). When you say thruster, I see little bitty attitude control thrusters. Not exactly good for interplanetary voyages, but decent if you want to rotate your ship quickly.

Cryosleep tube : Lifesupport/crewquarters ignore the "supplies used". Sorry.

Gravitic sheilding: if possible it defends against missles only
Shields block everything that dosen't have a shield-skipping warhead.
How about a point-defense repulsor beam? That would be missiles and fighters only, auto-activated. Effectiveness would depend on how much range the missile has left. Given a range of 1, it would reduce damage from plasma missiles, allow more time to evade CSMs, and prevent fighter rammings. If it had range 1 (and damage of 1), fighters would still fire at you from range 2 but could not ram.

Problems could arise in fleets, in the case of one ship pushing a missile towards another ship (possibly the missile's target). I would not expect that to happen often; maybe if the missile was fired from within the formation or something.

I will probably have PDRepulsors in P&N, once I've gotten through the first weeks back at University

Can't do destroyed on use for weapons, or anything used in combat for that matter.

Re: Some of my ideas and questions
 
new stuff and a question can i make a comp that makes a planet form nothing??or new types of ringworlds? like give the monsters the ability to creat)e a Hiveworld(sphereworld with a different pic
)from uhh different stuff? and can i make a type of ringworld only for certian suns?

Components:

Psionic nexus:a psy only comp that is like a nueral net but better

Ships:

Ark:a ship ewith the built in ability to colonize anything and is level 3 claoked but is slow expensive and poor at combat so is best used to stick away in some max level storm (i made a storm that no sensor can see through even the omnipotents)and when you loose all youre planets you make it colonize one.

Re: Some of my ideas and questions
 
Can't make a planet from nothing.

New types of ringworlds: you could create them in planettypes.txt, but not build them with SM (ringworld generator build planets of size ringworld only).
You can't have the created world be of a specific picture, either. Half the time you'd get a normal construct, half the time your new pic.
