Hello everyone, I regret to say that I'm new to SE4 (or SE for that matter), I wish I would of stumbled across this gem in the ruff a long time ago. I've currently got the Demo, and awaiting the full game in the mail. Enough about me, on to my idea/request.
I would like to see City Ships in the game... massive craft on the line of Dreadnoughts... They could mount a special componet that Holds Population... but unlike cargo, it allows the population to grow (at a low %, and to the max capacity of the "city componets"). Additionally, planet type facilities such as reasearch/ intelligence/ medical/ storage/ ect. to be available as componets... they would be very heavy and expensive though. The other important componet would be a "Ship Supply Componet" that acts as a resupply depot but at huge maintance costs.
The main reason I would like to see this is that for a while now I've been running a pen&paper RPG that includes such a "nomadic" race. And indeed they do alot of remote mining.
What are your thoughts? And is it possible to create this in a mod (I fear not, as I have read many of the Posts in this forum)

Yes, this has been a standing request for some time. There are zillions of requested features and also zillions of bugs to deal with, so there's no telling when this particular idea will appear. There are lots of other people who want it, though, so it'll probably be done eventually.
