Yes I know about the Rogue Terran Carrier and also the Abbidon Rogue Carrier has no fighter bays or fighters. I didn't notice the problem until I had make the mod available. It is a real easy fix however. Just change the enemies file to in the Pirate race section to have ship specific components and cargo. I had just forgot. I will add this to a list of changes and release a new version sometime in the near future.

I'm glad you like the Destroyer Escorts! I have them automatically loaded to your cargo hold after completing "x amount of jobs". I wanted this to be kinda arcade-sytle with the bonus components. It gives something extra for the player. As far as an final climatic battle, I may make one. We'll see. Keep the posts comming.

I could always make an extra system or systems but that was not my original design for this. Maybe I could make a deep-space system devoid of any planets. That would solve the componets restocking and levels issues at the Earth spacedock.


Thanks.

You don't need to do any custom image creation to make the extra systems. Just edit some text files. Another possibility, I guess, would be to split the Sol system up into different 'virtual' areas. Put Uranus/Neptune/Pluto waaaay out in their own location. But then you'd have a system with no star.

(Hmm, I wonder if you could create a custom background to add a larger than usual star in one direction?)

Yes you can. Good idea. I had never thought of that before. I tried it out and made a custom skybox bmp for the system. It worked. See the attachment for the pic.
