Good to see the ongoing work guys keep up the excellent modding.

Out of curiosity, how many mods are using FQM Deluxe? I can think of 3, AST, STM and Adamant. But, STM uses the FQM STD systemtypes.txt file so that the system images are not required, so that leaves 2.5... since you said Sweet Mod now uses FQM STD...

Now that the new mod is out.

I wish to change the sweet mod to some of the great concepts in the latest patch.

The Sweet mod has brought the power of the missle ship back to the game.

Now I wish to add the power of the carrier completely.

The concept is easy.

Fighters fight fighters with fighter hitting weapons only.
Fighters fight ships with ship hitting weapons only.

Ship weapons that hit fighters are P-D Fighters Only.

So IF you want to fight fighters you have to use fighters and the P-D fighter defence systems.

ALL other Weapons will be adjusted to reflect this change. Sats will be given the option to attack both. bases and WP's will be the same as ships.

If the sweet players like this idea it will be done.

Then the mod will be set up so it can be played with limitied resources as well. And the easy way to choose that will be in the map creation. When a player chooses limited resources game they generate a limited resource map.

it makes sense to me that WP's could hit fighters that are right next to the planet, ie straffing.

well they would have the option of installing PD

narf poit chez BOOM · #56 February 26th, 2004, 07:06 AM

would also make sense for WP PD to be shortened.

Its damage decreases with range... and it only targets fighters... you need another one to target missles....

The balance has been adjusted in 2 to reflect that .

In 1.51 Version Missle ships are very powerful. SO to counter this the PD has been improved a little to bring a little balance.

I am very excited about getting the fighters up to speed as well.

P.S. in the current Version 10 sats can take out a battle ship 60% of the time.

Now think about that with the max unit per location set to 1000
