But using the blackhole maker will kill the ship. (Or is that what you had in mind -a kamikazi ship?)

Assume you have a 1kg squirrel
E=mc^2
E=1kg(3x10^8m/s)^2=9x10^16J
which, if I'm not mistaken, is equivilent to roughly a 50 megaton nuclear bomb.
Fear the squirrel.

here is how cloaking should work in v1.0 and will definitly work in v 1.1

Religous and psy scanners detect any ship that has a crew ie no master computer(spirit crew qaurters cant be seen by psys)

regular detect anything using a regular cloaking device.

Temporal detect temporal.

Racial traits:

Quick learners:exp bonus

Tiny speciesmll crew quart and stuff

No atmophere:if you breath no atmophere you dont need life support.

God emporer:the peeps worship you,so they are more productive and,happy.

COmponents

Atomic bLaster retty powerfull,can be lethal at close range.

Atomic MIssle:for use agianst ship,very powerfull,short range,and high in rad cost

Atomic Bomb:Severely,damages,plauges,a planet,but same downside as above.

Atomic reactor:generates supplys in ships,not a qr!

Heart:i alreayd mentioned it but i just wanna say that the heart and lungs generate supplys as well for bugs

Planetary assualt cruiser:built in cargo bays,and(is this possible i havent checked my windows cpu is down)a planet hit ratio bonus.

Planets have a natural -200% defense "bonus", so any ship in the game can hit planets with 99% accuracy no matter what.


No atmophere:if you breath no atmophere you dont need life support.
I don't see how you can detect whether the player has chosen "none" as thier home atmosphere, but even then, ships with zero lifesupport and no MC will be reduced in movement (even if they require zero). You'll have to make a zero-KT lifesupport component.

I decided to umm uhh ahh "borrow" yeah thats it borrow not steal nope not me,rthe idea of captains and mayors (LOL) but with a few twists.

captains only cost money,there will be about two for each species included in my mod,they do not take up space but are limeted one to a ship.

PLanetoiral and system govts. have a downside,they lose money because of corruption bills paychecks,but they build faster and are stronger.

Squad leaders,are for infantry they add bonuss much like sa captain.

all genrels thingies have exp bonuss

INdividiul planet governments

Socialist:unhappy populas,more money,

Capitilist:less money,happpy peeps and a fast production rate

Barter:you get a free resoyurce changer,no money,no happieness change.
