Space Monsters!!!

[Rollo]

I'll try to make some short answers (before my boss comes in ).

• few strong monsters, evolving through the game
• lots of different designs will be used to get variety
• the AI will have to go through phases somewhat, but of course there can early-stage and late-stage squids (mixed in with dragons, bugs, mantas...)
• maximum hull sizes can be set in the design
• names: I was thinking of a name file with classic monster names from films and literature: Smaug, Godzilla, Tiamat,... (help required)
• I was thinking of sounds, too. The "Godzilla roar" would be cool to have .

Back to work..

Is there a way through a mod to make a ship that can pass through a standard minefield without either detonating it or sweeping it? If not I guess it would just have to go ahead and sweep them.

I would say: If they can eat stars and planets, I'm sure that the mines will taste like salt in their diet

RE: names.
Searches work great. Godzilla movie monsters for example.

or even Godzilla wavs

Thanks, guys .
Will check that out,when I get home.

Okay, I checked if a planet destroyer would be able to destroy a cloaked planet (was kind of worried about that), but that doesn't work . So truly the only means (that I can think of right now) to kill the monsters is to destroy the whole system.

What if they cloaked they star?

[Puke]

they are not that smart, nor do they have the potential to be. if they could be made to create stellar constructions, then we could probably make them construct a base at 6,6 and cloak the star. as it is, they cant even convert astroid belts.

the AI will not create bases anywhere except in orbit of their own colonies.
