I believe the devnull mod monsters use bases with the sector obsuration ability. This will not affect the planets ability to build.

Say... are bases still lumped under "ships" for weapon targeting purposes? Especially now that you can specify vehicle types in a list, it would be kind of irksome if "ships" meant "ships" for design and "ships/bases" for targeting...

(And wouldn't it be neat if you had a mod where all the bases were really huge compared to the ships, or you want to keep your speed-1 Anti-Base Bombardment Missiles from firing on ships (which can evade them by means of a reverse missile dance), so it would make sense to have weapons that could target bases but not ships (or vice versa)?

)

'these sure are strange creatures. there seems to be no definite shape or size. maybe, if we watch long enough, one of them will wander away from the herd and i can catch it.'

I don't know, I am sure the creatures find you equally as destrubing.

It is a much needed feature for Space Empires. A must have.

All good suggestions - improving the map program will be helpful as map making is a form of modding - altering the game to try to set up certain types of benefits or balancing etc.

Also with these new improvements - it will spur on updates to mods and map altering programs will need to be brought into line. As will the strategies and the FAQs.

So much for the monsters with thier invisible planets......

no worries Deathstalker. As Geo already said, the monsters use a sector cloak. So their planets are not actually cloaked, but hidden.
