Inventing the Hyperdrive; The Starscape Mod

[Shadowstar]

Hello everyone.

I am attempting to port my Starscape mod (from Stars!) over to SEIV Gold, with some improvements, but I've run into some problems. If any of you are Stars! players, you know that there is no such thing as warp points in the game. Ships travel at FTL speeds and such. I'm attempting to do something similar with the SEIV Starscape mod. I haven't had any luck creating a "hyperdrive" component that I could develop into a series of engines and tech area(s) that focus on giving ships an additional component that will replace needing to use warp points to get around.

If I can just figure out some solution for this, I can develop Starscape into a full total conVersion (which is what it was meant to be for Stars! originally). Eventually I would like to turn Starscape into its own game altogether.
