When starting a game you have the option for making the resource speeds and build speeds faster or slower. Is there a way to modify this? I wish to keep research speeds about the same, but would like ship build speeds much slower and buildings about half as fast while also having a slower income, but not ultra slow. I know this will make the game a bit longer (well...a lot!), however I want set the game up so that my self and my friends really want to keep all ships as safe as poss

ahh, asteroid position i forgot about! Thanks for the feedback myfist0. I wonder if i can turn a blind eye to the ships going every where! I thought the strike craft would be problem aswell. Ah well, ill have a play around and see if what happens.

Ok, first off i don't know much about modding, but as i see it there is only one way to get something the way you want it, do it yourself! So before i start asking the questions, i want to give a basic idea on what i want to do. For years i have had a love of capital ship combat, more specifically WWII stuff. I want to have a similar set up where capital ships lvl up and you actually want to take care of then as they are valuable assets, not just a throw away job.<

i would assume the difficulty for the devs is - to make them more of a threat, they could pose a huge problem at the start of a game for new players. i would like to see timer of some sort for pirate re-inforcement introduced ,ie no matter how much money is put on them for x minutes they only ever have x amount of strength, that way the starting pirate attack wont roll our puny empires to the ground. After this time limit though, have the pirates gain in strength gradua

i think the lower polygon count should work fine. I had my first sins mini dump last night. My ssd had just left from hyperspace and landed in an enemy gravity well, he had a huge fleet there and i was all ready engaged heavily elsewhere with fighters and bombers all over the place (looks awesome to see that many fighting!) As soon as the 12 squadrons dumped out of the ssd FREEZE. Alt tabed and yep, mini dump. im happy enough with out ties and x-wings as generally you are never zoomed in

id like to see a pirate attack containing maybe a capital ship class of thier own own. Only after they have a had a few high paying customers though. As at the start this would be to powerful. But something along the lines of a Kol with the spikes hanging off it would be a nice addition.

i expect the next micro expansion may deal with this sort of thing (as in after entrenchment). I also agree with above comments that if you start putting these things in we may lose the SINS we know and it may drag every game out to be a looooong affair....well....longer.. :)

first off thankyou very much the excellent work. To see this level of work around here is awesome. Kudos to you my good sir 5'd!! Not sure if this is the correct place to report a bug for this mod, or if it is a bug, but i was playing a game last night and i had the enemy (republic i think) rock up on my home planet and bomb me off it from the edge of the gravity well then hype out! I was a little shocked that by the time my fleet got to them on the edge of the well, my planet was dow

ive got to agree, with almost all of the above, but also remaining aware that this is a beta and we are testing it for a purpose. There is no way that the guys who brought us this brilliant game will want us all running away from it because of a few teething problems always inherent in a Beta. The developers will here our cries of oh crap there are THAT many mines here and make the changes neccessary (and if previous patches are any indication they will be sorted before we even finish t

My computer with sins on it is not my computer with the net, how do i get the latest patch, im at 1.04 atm. Usually i find the dl link and take the patch home on USB. I cant install the dl program on my work computer! Id get shot...at least. On a brighter note though, thankyou very much for the support the comunity recieves. There a very few games that have reponses as quick or as often from the devs. Cheers guys, thanks for all the work and help. xwfalc Ok...Im doing

It is indeed a good idea. However i find i dont play too much cat and mouse as i am more defensive. I like Ion bolt, cripple an enemy cap ship and take it out. I find myself at the moment splitting my fleet in to two smaller fleet. Have one assualt the enemy fleet and the other wait for them to hype out once you have caused enough damage to them. Mind you, this only works vs AI and only in defence of your own planets. For attacking-If they run...and i still get the planet. No problem. I
