Default Re: Facilities

I hate the idea of transporter boarding or transporter bombs. Perfect conVersion from matter to energy and back, preserving even the molecular patterns, is so insanely advanced that practically every other technology we can imagine would be made obsolete by it. This tech implies incredible powers that make the usual 'Trek' uses laughable. It would be unbalancing in the game even in the limited implementation that we've seen in Trek. About the only use I can see for transporters is stealing cargo from an enemy transport or planet.

How about boarding shuttles? That would allow boarding at a distance and still give you a chance to resist.

As far as the component and facility pictures, there's no need for anyone to choose a number. Each modder can choose it themselves. Just post large & small Versions of the component or facility & let each modder put it into the 'group' file where they want it.
