Devnull Mod Question

Unco · #1 July 29th, 2003, 08:36 AM

I researched Space Yards II. I can build Space Yard II Facilities. I can also build Space Yard II Components.

But for some reason, I cannot build a Space Yard II Component on a Starbase.

It can be built just fine on a Cruiser.

Any suggestions? Possible bug?

you need to research bases for that one. tricky eh?

So, Space Yard II can be built only on Battlestations? Is that a Devnull Mod rule?

Seems odd I can still build it on Cruisers.

I guess it mainly just keeps me from ever upgrading my Spacestations to Space Yard II.

Unless of course you are saying that once I research Bases II, I will be able to build them on Spacestations. Tell me you're saying that!

yes, you can put Space Yard - Base II on a 500kt Space Station. You just need to research Base Construction 2.

Keep in mind that the components that can be used on Cruisers are different form the ones used on bases. While Space Yard - Ship II has 1500 construction, Space Yard - Base II has 2000. Space Yards that are used for bases also have a higher repair rate.

PS: maybe a name change for the Space Yard - Ship component would be in order to remove some of the confusion. Mobile Space Yard, perhaps?

That would help. Probably some people didn't even notice they were separate components since they only see the appropriate one in the design screen for the type they are making.
