Phoenix-D is on a distinguished road
Default Re: Honor Harrington Mod Discussion

"Phoenix-D, the grit tech mod should be out in beta next week. you should take a look. I shamelessly cribbed laser missiles from HH fiction, but would be happy to replace them with something else, if it treads on this mod."

Which is gleefully treading on someone else's work? No way, no problem.

"anyway, the point of my post is this: i have ships from 200-10000KT, and handle both the engines and the armor with mounts. I dont have any 0KT components due to size reduction, and the scale seems to work out OK."

Anything that would end up being less than 1 kt in size get's round down. My 50kt Life support modules end up as 0kt on DDs, because 1% of 50 is .5, rounds to 0. On light cruisers, which take a 2% scale mount, they are 1kt in size. Any component of 20kt original size or less gets chopped to zero though.

"I am guessing that you might be running into problems with silly numbers of missiles and drones being launched into combat, and the game not wanting to fire any more. I would love to take a look at what you have got so far, if you upload the mod somewhere."

This was with pure beam weaponry, only. There's not a lot -too- the mod; just made the bridge, LS, and CQ bigger, added the two drives I mentioned, and changed the ship sizes.
