Re: Balance Mod to become Stock SEV Petition
Hmm, I guess my definition of mod is different. I suppose it would be more accurate to say I had planned to develop Starscape as a mod of the stock game, rather than a total conversion. There's no need to reinvent the wheel with Starscape. I'd build it on stock, but since I'd rather have a balanced basis for my mod, it looks like I'll be using balance instead.

Re: Balance Mod to become Stock SEV Petition
Well, to get technical, what SJ is describing could be called a TC (Total Conversion), rather than a mod.

Re: Balance Mod to become Stock SEV Petition
In my terminology what SJ described is a Total Conversion. To me a Mod barrows some parts from Stock or another Mod. When I hear ‘from scratch’ it tells me that one or more files have been created from a blank text sheet. In my humble opinion and using the Mod I am working on as an example, the Components, Tech Areas, Vehicle Sizes, Governments, and Society Types are all from scratch. So basically I am just reiterating what Phoenix-D said.

Re: Balance Mod to become Stock SEV Petition
I do not think it should replace stock. It should be an additon.
Balance Mod
Stock Mod

Re: Balance Mod to become Stock SEV Petition
I just want all the game-muddling bugs fixed. <  Maybe everybody could work on that first. :]

Re: Balance Mod to become Stock SEV Petition
Yes, technically a TC is a mod, however in a TC the game is basically rebuilt, very little of the original game content is left in place. In general usage a mod (as opposed to a TC) doesn't change things as drastically. Or:
TC == Mod, but, Mod != TC
