Re: Minefield Limit Loophole

I forgot the planet launch limit. Regardless of the number, with the overall limit placed on the units in space, you couldn't have very many even at only 1099 to a minefield. The limit with ship...

Re: Ideas....

Restrictions do not have to be arbitrary or unrealistic. One of things I dislike about the racial techs is the reasoning does not work both ways. On one hand if you're organic, it's taken ions to...

Re: Minefield Limit Loophole

Jimbo55: I ran a test using a fleet of 10 baseships each with the ability to launch 80 mines a turn. The game processes fleet orders like this one ship at a time even though given as a fleet order...

Re: Minefield Limit Loophole

rdouglas: The 32 mine limit was the ship's design as it had 16 minelayer III's which can launch two a turn. I don't know how far over the limit one could get it. The baseship someone mentioned...

Minefield Limit Loophole

I haven't much experience using minefields in previous games and have been using them more in my current game. I thought the current Version (and from some time ago) had reduced the limit to...

Re: Making fighters more realistic.

The traditional designations like DD for destroyers had nothing to do with the number of letters or their presence in the word. Rather it was a means to differentiate from like types of vessels. ...

Re: Lost Orders

However whether you moved the ship or not, certain tasks are considered movement. For example opening and closing warp points require you have movement points even though the actual opening or...

Re: Ship Names

I have four such files dealing with ship names from the Second World War. One each for carriers, battleships, cruisers and destroyers. I'll post them in the Mod section.

Re: Colonizing w/ conquored population

Well you can't on the actual planets which are rioting. But you need only one in a system and hence you can build it on a planet which is not rioting. Only one UPC is effective per system.

Re: i\'m a political failure!!!

I agree, Master Belisarius. However there must be some middle ground. The signing of a simple trade agreement does not have to allow free access to each other's territory, particularly free access...

Re: Have you ever been Experienced?

Experience should be based on either ship class or preferably construction cost of the item destroyed. A fighter or missile should not garner the same value as a baseship as is the case now. ...

Re: Bug (is this where I put it?)

The galaxy map however shows the presense of other races even if the system map is not showing the little flags because they're hidden. Anytime you are in a system with any race present, the galaxy...

Re: Ai races not using design name file specified in _ai_general.txt file

I think it uses any design names when the race is selected randomly. If it is added to a game as an emp file, you have to be sure that "uses race..." button is on for it to use the ai_general file...

Re: Ring and Sphereworlds

To Nyx: Your old strategy of blowing up non-huge worlds and remaking them as huge no longer works. The planet generator in 1.19 (and the earlier 1.11 Versions) generates planet sizes based on the...

Well, if its a race you're creating, you can always provide that information in the bio or history of the race which is then viewable from within the game.

Re: Changes for a Challenge

Re: Can not load patch

Do you have the demo on your machine? I believe when the patch starts it looks for the first match to the game and it maybe finding your copy of the demo instead of the game. Make sure the patch...
