Hey guys, i have recentlly started playing Distant Stars mod and im looking for someone to play against.
But thats not all i have also made the following changes to the mod and game files. I have made all the capital hips 3 times as powerfull and 3 times as costrlly. Specifically hull, shields, antimatter, culture, fighters, and wep dmg all up by 3, basically all atributes accept for number of wepons and shield mittigation.
Also uped the number of starbaces to 3 on most planets, 5 on gas giants and worm holes. Increased the starbase initial dmg output and the number of upgrades avalible. So you can make a starbase capable of defending against the new caps but it will cost you. Also uped the number of tactical slots on planets again to counter the powerfull caps somewhat.
I also gave carrier cruisers for each race their coresponding long range missiles, and more squadrons, and uped the cost apropriately of course.
Oh ya and i also doubled the cap ship size by 2.
Ive been playing this way and the balance between defence and offence seems just fine, a planet with 3 suped up starbaces is no joke, but neither are the massive ships invading it it works great.
So ya if anyone is interested in playing a game like this with epic caps, more and powerfull starbaces. And is willing to tell me how to go about uploading the files you will need let me know.
