Re: Things that could be...
Now THAT I like!! Build the shields into the facilities... NEVER even occurred to me! DAMN! thank you Pheonix. Now that you mention it I don't think I told the ai about the new techs at all. Heres the breakdown kinda...
ship Cost Size
Escort 600 100
EscortII 600 150
EscortIII 600 200
Frigate 800 200
etc...
etc...
Added some new abilities to the new classes too so a class 3 is one hull size bigger effectively but cheaper to build and with some improvements. i.e. +1 combat speed... +10% defense...
But also takes 2 more tech levels to build.
As for the radioactives thing yeah I guess that would be one way to do it... make the maintenace cost higher so more are used but then if you run out things get scrapped and thats not cool. Look at the Russian Navy in the mid-late 90s, not scrapped but hurting for supplies. Oh well. Thak you VERY much for the shield idea. I'll try it tonight. Now if you can find me a way to put some low level guns on the facilities you'll be a God to me...
