Another monster Idea: LOR (Data's evil twin). That guy (err... android) can kick some serious a$$, and since he's evil all sides must be wary of him.

Thank you Fyron for you help. If not for your suggestion I might not have figured out how simple a fix this was.

(I don't know how I fixed it, but it works)

Adding more monsters at this time might not be a good idea.)

Beta Testers:

I am in the process of uploading the latest Version of the mod, Version 1.6.0 to the host site.

PLEASE be sure <font color=red>DELETE</font> the FACILITIES folder in your STM / Pictures / directory <font color=red>BEFORE YOU INSTALL</font> the latest patch.

Also please pay close attention to testing the Monsters, and EVENTS. (I have added new events, and with them new event images.)

I will email you all when the upload is complete. (It should be done by 2pm PST today.)

You can at that time substitute the 159 portion of the old link for 160 and it should download.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

Imperator Fyron, did you ever find anything about some of the planet abilities not working.

Planet Point Generation Modifier - Research\Intelligance

Resource Generation Modifier Planet - Mineral\Organic\Radioactives

Also I am utilizing the Sector - Sight Obscuration for a few planets and just wanted to make sure that that won't affect planetary facilities once the planet is discovered and colonized?

One Last thing, I also am noticicing that Sector -Damage ability randomally damages vessels intstead of everytime. Is this supposed to be this way?

Thanks for all of your advice. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I have seen the AI use Captains, but Kowk and I already discussed giving them all AI tags. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

As for fixing the sensor issue, well that has been addressed I hope. I retarded the Fed sensors a tad and did something else but I can't remember what.

We will see in the latest Version how they play out.

ALSO

I do want to add space monsters. I need to understand the basic's. I can pirate the concept from D mod, however I need his permission. Second, I need to understand how they function and how to "hide" there planet. This may mean that I will have to add a planet cloak ability.

I understand that Space Monsters DO NOT have colony tech, have excellent Counter Intel, and do not do intel. They are powerful and have superior resource design and access to quantum reactors witch I will have to add to the mod as a special component.

Any whoo the ideas for space monsters are as follows: (Please offer more if you know of them):

Calamarain - Gaseous lifeform that hunts for your ships. (Physic Weapons)

Combat Drone - They just keep coming. (Energy Weapons)

Edo Guardian - Not that this is really much of an enemy. (Temperol Weapons)

Gomtuu - A lonely, suicidal sentient starship that just is looking for a place to die. (Gravity weapons)

Tarrellian Ship - One of the worst and the easiest to get rid of. (Plague Weapons)

Crystalline Entity - Very Nasty bugger. (Crystal weapons)

Day Of the Dove - Not very nice - (Physic weapons)

Dooms Day Machine - Says it all - (Wave Motion Gun set on ultra high with good armor)

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Very insteresting.... must try.

So your suggesting simply to keep the component as it, drop the extra design requirement from Fed designs, and set up research file for better order?

Ok, why the hell not. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
 

I believe the Klingon A.I. is somewhat flawed. What the problem is that they send colonization ships through one of my guarded warp points, without escort and one at a time. The chassis in use is the Yor VIII, but it probably applys to other designs.
