Specific vs common sensors ?

Like the following could be improved...

3) Fleet Global Components confer benefits not only upon the installed ship but with sister ships of the fleet. – 1 per fleet

3) Fleet Global Components confer benefits not only upon the installed ship but with sister ships of the fleet. – 1 per fleet (select 1 of the 5, the 5 components basically do the same thing)

tbontob,

Sorry for not checking in sooner (that damn job thing keeps getting in the way). It think your summary looks like a darn good start. Great work. I am digesting some suggestions for you, but I'll have to check in a bit later.

I do believe that you should limit the information to just sensors, for the sake of simplifying things.

Perhaps the quantum reactor info will fit better under a different section, such as:
I. DESIGNS AND COMPONENTS
a. SHIP COMPONENTS
b. FLEET COMPONENTS
1) Quantom Reactor

Just brainstorming...

Hi Stone Mill

Thanx for the feedback.

What you have said mirrors my own sentiments.

So I thought I'd just hang in there to see if there were other components were were shared in addition to the quantum reactor.

When I started this thread, I felt there were more shareable components than what we were able to come up with. I wonder if there is a general feeling of a let down in the realization that there are so few.

So I think I'll just hang for a while to see if there are any suggestions for improvements.

Hmmm...I am thinking of an addendum about which level of sensor beats the level of another sensor.

- Neural Combat Net – obtains the experience of the ship which has the greatest experience of all the ships which have the NCNet installed on their ships

I'm not certain that Last part is accurate. I thought the NCN ships match the highest experience in the fleet, whether the most experienced ship has NCN or not. I could easily be mistaken about this, though.

Imperator Fyron had this to say early in the thread...

Combat Sensors – no
ECM - no
Multiplex Tracking - no
Neural Combat Net - yes, if they both have it
Scanner Jammer - no
Long Range Scanners - doesnt apply in combat; yes out of combat

These are all exactly the same in the un-modded game:
Psychic Receptors - doesnt apply in combat; yes out of combat
Tachyon Sensors - doesnt apply in combat; yes out of combat
Temporal Sensors - doesnt apply in combat; yes out of combat
Gravitic Sensors - doesnt apply in combat; yes out of combat
Hyper Optics - doesnt apply in combat; yes out of combat

I assumed (maybe wrongly?) that you have a group of ships in the fleet each with the NCN and the individual ships in that group attain the same level of the ship with the best experience in the group.

Comments anyone?

That is correct
