Re: The Face of the Enemy (Destroy this Ship!)

One of the biggest problems I see is if you have 150 ships and he has 150 ships how can anyone maneuver? If you could disable the engines of the first rank of ships then all his other ships would be...

Re: The Face of the Enemy (Destroy this Ship!)

You could also try to fight in nebulas, shield aren't as effective.
Fighting a war of attrition against a maintenance free opponent isn't a good idea IMO. You will lose units also and still pay to...

Re: The Face of the Enemy (Destroy this Ship!)

If you have a speed advantage and can get the first shot in, I think there is nothing better than Null Space weapons. You take out components with every hit.
The reload rate is the only drawback....

Re: The Face of the Enemy (Destroy this Ship!)

PPB's have a short range. Try to build some ships with Wave Motion Guns as stay at max range. Another possibility is Null Space weapons, skips shields and armor.
I'm not real familiar with the...

Re: Anyone notice?

I wasn't sure if this was something that was suppose to be fixed in a patch.

Anyone notice?

I am playing a game using v1.35 and Dev mod. I am able to retrofit the same ship any number of times in a turn. This allows for the construction of a sphereworld in 3 turns, provided you have enough...

Re: Tale of A Ship Idea That Failed

I always build the biggest mines I can, if they get through I want them to hurt! Some people think this is a waste of resources if your opponent can sweep them all but by the time I can build mines I...

Re: Add-On question

It definately would be much easier if you could place everything where you wanted it.
That way you could test and edit your scenario. Designing an interesting scenario in one pass is hard.

Re: Base Space Yard bug??

It also helps the build rate. I was thinking of having the AI build with 3+ yards to give it a boost. Unfortunately it would probably build WP or fighters it can't store ...

Re: End of the month

I hope it means that Allegiance Converters will not work until the master computer is destroyed. I think I recall a thread where someone said their ships were being converted while the master...

Re: Ideas....

You may be right about that LemmyM but I don't know if that is possible. I think you can only restrict techs from traits, I don't think techs can restrict techs. It would be cool if you could do...

Re: Ideas....

You could make every tech racial specific. It would just be a tremenous amount of work assign each tech to various races. It would be very interesting though.

Re: Error in Component Enhancements file

I should have said size/damage. I'm not sure on cost.
Too bad you can't change the reload rate on a mount, that would give a distinct choice between sizes.

Re: House Rules

That's 90% of the fun of playing against other people, they do things you would never have thought of!
I don't think you should take advantage of known bugs/program deficiencies or use cheat codes...

Re: Self-Destruct is Irrational Component

Wouldn't that have be a rather large explosion to give collateral damage? Since the ships only occupy one space and a planet takes up 4 spaces how close can they be?

Re: Error in Component Enhancements file

How come there are no "negatives" to the mount sizes? The cost/damage ratio gives more bang for the buck but shouldn't there be some drawback for using the larger mount? As it is there is no reason...

Re: Ideas....

What I mean was not every tech was effected by changing the tech level from medium to high. Some stayed the same, some doubled, some went up a little.
Oops now I get what you mean, the price per...

Re: VechicleSize.txt idea...

There seems to be a lot of problems with adding new race traits. I think MM should just add about 20 empty race traits that could be renamed/used. Then all the .emp file would work as new traits are...

Re: Ideas....

I tried that. It only effected certain techs though. Is this the way it is suppose to work?
Also, I found that with a high tech cost the AI really falls behind because they don't build as many...

Re: Ideas....

That's a good idea. I also like the suggestion of branching research trees for items, like higher ranged, more accurate or more damaging weapons.
Anything that gives the game more variety is good...

Re: Error in Component Enhancements file

How about scaling engines too. This would eliminate some of the complaints about engine size. DN engines that provide more power (movement) but guzzle supplies and take up a lot more space.

Re: End of the month

The reason I mentioned this is that there was a thread aearlier this month where someone had the Allegience Converter work on ships with intact master computers. The thread is called Bugs.
