Yes they do.

That would be why they're not building colony ships then...
I didn't think that little test tweak had gone beyond my test game with Fyron.

What do I need to change in the data/ship file? Make it 1 life support?

Suicide Junkie · #4 October 22nd, 2002, 01:02 AM

That should do it.

I'm on dialup right now, so I'll have the official link corrected by tomorrow.

I guess I should have asked this Last night, but is the Battlemoon expected to move in this mod?

In order to get a battlemoon to move, IIRC, you need 67 Ion Engines, or 34 Quantum engines.
Just keep piling on the engines, and it'll go.

If you add too many engines, the speed will overflow, and SE4 resets it to zero.
Thus, the maximum speed available is 1mp on a battlemoon. If you have propulsion experts, this becomes 2mp on the system map.

The reason I asked is because you have it written as " engines per move- 200", "requirement max engines- 99". If you need 200 for 1 movement but can only put on 99 your never going to go anywhere.
