Re: Warp Point warfare

Maybe they could be made temporary, only Last one turn. You would need a lot of generators to keep a system totally safe.

Re: Help! Ran out of stuff to research!!

Also, since this is an open ended game you will eventually run out of stuff to research. You could never add enough unique or original items to keep you researching until turn 10,000

Re: Help! Ran out of stuff to research!!

Increasing the cost/build time of the reesearch facility could help to. I'm a research nut. If the building took 2 turns to make instead of 1 the pace of research would slow.
Another thought is to...

Re: Supply questions

A repair rate and resource cost for the repair of SM devices would be great. Both should be high.

Re: Valuable property

Thats a shame. Guess I can alwys think of my Urban Pacification Center as the seat of government in a system.

Re: turn vs simul. pains

I've never PBEM. Is it worth, or possible at all, to play sim only against the AI?

Re: Help! Ran out of stuff to research!!

You could also increase the cost of research facilities, the cost of research per topic or add empty research levels in areas that are requirements for other techs.
I don't think the problem is the...

Re: Supply questions

What I would like to see is these powerful items not be able to be used on a whim. If you can use one and have a repair bay fix it at no cost in one turn then they lose some of their specialness. You...

Valuable property

I have a question for the modders.
Is it possible to create a facility, such as a capitol, the would be extremely valuable? By that I mean a facility that, if lost, would have major negative effects...

Re: Upgrades to Weapon Platforms, How?

I think you have to create an new platform and jettison the old one if you need the room.
Seems odd that you can't, maybe it's because they don't need a spaceyard to be built.

Re: How Do you get the CD?

If you live near the ship from point choose regular UPS. I think my copy shipped out of North Carolina. Got my copy in Maryland in 2 days. It will fit in a mailbox, no game box.

Re: Race characteristics - what\'s hot... what\'s not

My favorite mix is 120% in research, 120% construction and either the merchant trait or the faster building trait. This is easily done with 2000 point with a few left over.

Re: Marty Ward/Sun Devil - Race Files

What I should have asked is should I install them in a certain order to get them most out of each mod? I didn't know if a mod changes every file or just certain ones.
Thanks

Re: Empire wide facilities

I like that seat of government idea. Makes a system a "must defend" place. You could pretty much guarantee a fight there.
There really are no strategically important systems. One fully developed...

Re: Drones

How does the quantum reactor effect the use of supplies in combat? It says it give unlimited supplies for movement but doesn't mention combat. Will you eventually need to resupply?

Re: So...what\'s the latest and greatest MOD ?

When you add these mods will the races ever be chosen when you allow the computer to pick a random number of computer opponents or do you always need to add them to the game individually?
