Planets giving fleet size bonuses.

I've modded a number of games before, but I have never even tried to mess around with this game. I would like to leave the current fleet size/research process in place but also include small bonuses for planets. Something like +10 supply for terran, +5 for volcanic/ice, +2 for asteroids, and so on. I was just wondering if anyone had looked into this or had pointers before I spend time on trying to figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.

Hmm I am not exactly sure as to how you go about doing this, the targets your looking for will either be planet bonuses or the planet data itself... My only concern with editing the planet bonuses with this new one (and making it's occurence chance 100% like your saying) is that it would shove out all other planetary bonuses. But again, I am not totally sure that that will even be a problem.

Maybe if you try entering some code into the planet bonus data like this:

floatBonus:ShipMaxSlots 5.000000

Other than that, not sure what else to say, hope it helps

A planetary ability might do the trick.

I remember hearing somewhere that that was the original plan way back in the Sins beta...

Thanks, I'm beginning to see what you mean. I'll bump this thread if I figure something worth while out.
