God Emporer - that what I had done, except I allow them to use up to BC hulls.

To get it to work, did you set Colony Ships as size 0-300kT and Light Cruiser Colony Ships as 400+ ?

As you said, I did the standard Colony ships with size 10-300Kt. But about the new colony ship, the size is only LC: 400-400 Kt.

MB, Atraikus,
Thanks for the confirmation. I'll make the necessary modifications. Definately the simplest and cleanest way to go.

Regards,
GE

MB - you want to be careful with cloaking colony ships. I scripted the Darlok to do this and then learned that a cloaked colony ship cannot colonize while cloaked. I have not tested this in the latest SE4 Version, but I did not see it on the fixed list. Unfortunately, I have not seen the AI smart enough to "decloak" prior to colonizing.

God Emperor: No problem!

Tampa: thanks for the advice, and I will check again.
I can remember the message once saying "A cloaked ship can't colonize a planet", but at the next turn the planet was colonized. But the AI usually had not problems colonizing with cloaked ships: seems to be that this was fixed.

Have just posted V141b of the Borg variant, Klingons, Romulans and Shadows.

I have modified the DesignCreation files to allow the use of ColonyShip hulls upto 300kT and have removed Cloaking until my play tests confirm no problems.

GE

The new Version can replace the ones that come with tdm, or must be a new directory ?
