SJ,
How do get the AI to use your Capital Ship Engines only on Capital Ships (assuming that is what there are designed for). I can understand that the larger ships will use them if they are the best available, but how you prevent a 250Kt size ship from using it.

---

That's a good point.
I've been thinking about how to get P&N AIs to use some of the powerful armor, and this is what I've got:

-Give your normal engines a "mineral resource generation" ability, and give the Capital engines an organics generation ability.
-Those particular abilities don't have any effect on ships, but you can call for them in your shipdesigns.txt!

Thus, you can have the larger ship designs use a single Capital engine and then add on regular engines to suit.

Or, alternatively, you could make the Capital engines a exact scale copy of the normals, and have the AI not use capitals via the above method.

SJ: 'Obsolete' refers to the fact that you can set certain directories to not show in the mod launcher. For example if you had a development Version of the mod you didn't want to show, or if the mod launcher had identified a directory that wasn't really a mod.
It's a convenience field for the auto-detection and filtering system.
Most people should (unless they are evil) set Obsolete to False

As I promised in the Non Standard Hull thread, and thanks to my brother insistence I've resurrected this mod.
I revised it, made it compatible with the Neo-Standard pic set, and included patched AI.

You are the first mod (to my knowledge) to include a properly working Modinfo.txt

The latest Version (1.2) of my Hypermaze mod works with your launcher, too.

Hey that's an old comment.
Most mods now work with the laucher, that now with gold will become a standard part of space empires.

D'oh! I saw Andrés' comment bump the thread, but didn't even notice the date on the older Posts.

Does anybody here play or have played with this mod? Or are my brothers the only exeption?
If so I shouldn't have bothererd to post it since both of them play in MY computer.
