L\'il help
 

Hello folks,
Only been playing the game for about a week.
Need a wee bit o' help - could someone please post the tonnages of the following items (in an unmodded game):
Colony ship
Transport ships
Carriers
Fighters
Troops
Bases
Drones
Satellites
Mines
Platforms

Right now, I'm working nights and things are slllowwww at work - so I figure I can work out some possible designs to take home and try on the game during down time.
Thanks

You could just take the vehicles data file with you to work. They are small enough to transport via floppy and very easy to read. They aren't coded or anything like that. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Renegade! You ruined everything! If he had looked at the data files the urge to mod would surely have grasped him! All my planning and scheming, ruined!! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Renegade: Thanks much! This should make the night go a bit more quickly.

I give my most humble apology Kevin, and beg your forgiveness for my heinous transgression http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif Can you ever bring yourself to forgive me?? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: L\'il help
 

No problem at all BaronVonPoopy. Oh, and welcome to the forums! If you ever need any more help with something, just stop by and we'll give you a hand (assuming we can http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif )

Re: L\'il help
 

All is forgiven. There will come another. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: L\'il help
 

Kevin - oh, don't worry about that. I've already started thinking about a mod I'd like to do - based on Heldensagen vom Kosmosinesef. But, as I've only had this for a week - want to just play it for a while.

Re: L\'il help
 

Hey, look at that! 3 Posts, all at exactly the same time. Looks like mine beat both of yours though, by a split second! I win!

Re: L\'il help
 

Thats great! (i have no idea what Hilda von Ketchup or whatever is but i'll just be polite) http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Just a warning, once you start modding SE4 there is no turning back. At least, not until SE5 of course.

Re: L\'il help
 

And none of us will actually give you a hand (I hope). That would be rather painfull and very gross.

Re: L\'il help
 

I can remember doing this when the game first came out and I had little or nothing to do at work. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
