NEPHIL: HELP ON VESSEL CODDING (Currently: Ship No.1)

Hello all, so I've decided to post a thread in which I ask questions about what I'm trying to do and which is best way to accomplish when it comes to code ship abilities, stats,etc...!

So with haste, let us begin! Well for those of you willing to help!

Also, decide to combine them to limit the amount of new posts and to make this a nice and clear thread..just the way I like 'em!

 

Ship No.1: 'Planet Sucker'

OK for this ship, the idea is to get the Nephil vessel (which cannot colonize), to gather their income through a massive upgrade of embargo on other planets through 'satellites' (extremely weak vessels...destroyed in a few shots only)!

Managed to get both skills in separately, so we now have temporary invulnerable ships stealing an income from a planet! While Phased Out, they attract no attention, menaing once their in place, you get a steady source of income for a while (more if you decide to put more than one satellite on one planet of course). Temporary to allow the enemy to effectively and quickly dispose of the threat while you're bateries reload!

HELP NO:1 ! I would need someone to help me out on how to transform these two separate abilities into ONE ability! IE,. the moment I trigger Phasic Cloak, Embargo automatically triggers if I'm located inside an ennemies gravity well!

Secondly, if possible, is their a way for this sort of technique to also be aimed at ALLIES! As in, In multiplayer games, you tag you're allies (with their consent of course :) ) and you'll indefinitely get a steady source of income without any danger of getting attacked!

SHIP NO.2: COMING SOON!

lol. your problems are rather minor :p. at any rate, it should not be hard, all ill need you to do is send me the two files and ill take a look at what you have done with them and combine em for you, test em, and if sucessful, explain the process to you afterwords. only problem now would be use being online at the same time. (im in a lazy mood so i dont feel like explaining target modifyers now :p)

Take care,

St Cobalt,

                When you send it along to Justin, could i ask if you could send it to me as well? With Justin's permission of course, im not really interested in duplicating his effort with the Vasari, im more an Advent fan, but i would love to see how to combine abilities, if that is all right with the both of you?

Thank you and take care,

Sincerely,

-Teal
