Yay! +1, on my way to catching Annatar...

"That's no moon!"

14 Illums x 3 beams per Illum=462 dmg + 4 Drones x 3 fighters each=216 dmg + a Progenitor cast Malice causing minimum 30% damage propagation (and not counting damage being caused by progenitor itself= 881.4 per second Hmm... not sure.....

yes they do, but moons are often considered as more spherical such as that of Earth's, Luna. It would be interesting to have moon types based off of the moons in our solar system, like Ios (a volcanic moon), or Europa (an ice moon that has a presumed ocean beneath the ice). As such, allow each to have different minerals, it would be interesting to have the moons rotate the planet, but ships should not be allowed to impact on it. Allowing it to be specialized (colonized, defensive structures,

While i'm both creative and persistent (tooting own horn), I have a demanding female to deal with.

nvm, i thought it was more simple than that. i'm biting off more than i can chew.

I know i need to be looking in the planet entity files, i'm just confused as to where to look, can some one provide a vista location line?

Harpo, you got a file location? in the game info section? I still can't find it...

yeah, i can't find it, am i supposed to be looking in entity.manifest, or in a particular map in the galaxy file?

I've been trying to figure out how to do this in the entity files, but i don't know what i'm looking for; can someone show me an example before and after?

[quote who="harpo99999" reply="5" id="2101014"]you have to edit the planet entity files in a plain text editor like notepad pissibly after conveting to txt format with the convertentrenchment.exe hope this helps harpo [/quote] what exactly am i looking for?

Finally found it. I gotta say, i hate vista, file manipulation used to be so easy.

anybody remember the defensive ring around the moon in "Starship Troopers"? How awsome would it be to have something like that?

[quote who="leejaywu" reply="5" id="2103934"] They do. [/quote] No, what they do is pull them out of phase space. the problem is is that they do not do enough damage to the mines fast enough to destroy them before the scouts are destroyed. What i'm proposing is that they actually get a mine clearing ability rather than just pull the mines out of phase space for other units to destroy. The ideas I had would also coincide with the other abilities of the races.

what type of file will it list it as?

It would be interesting to hsve the cap ships see a boost and have these mega-cruisers in the game as well. Have the Kodiak, Destra, Skarovas cruisers be smaller versions of the mega-cruisers. If you notice, the other cruisers are pretty much support craft, much like the cruisers today. These heavy cruisers are the only cruisers really for combat (not counting the carriers). It would be interesting to see the mega-cruisers as more of an offensive force.

Where can you locate the screenshots you've taken?

It'd be interesting if the scouts had a mine clearing ability in themselves. Vasari- nanite clearers TEC- explosive charges Advent- Psionic triggering

Very nice....

I've been wondering about this as well, it'd be cool if they incorporated moons into the 2nd or third expansion.

nope, still not working for me after redownload.

I agree, i've always found it a little ridiculous that such big items as the Cap Ships and Starbases can't defend themselves. Only way that I can see a starbase getting any flak defence is by surrounding it with Tec Hangars.

not to mention, better graphics...[e digicons]:grin:[/e]

I think it would be an interesting strength to add to the Advent. Every race has strengths and weaknesses. I would rather have specific boosts than the different races becoming bland and simply being different avatars for ships.

hmm...nanomachines would be an interesting twist, kinda like the replicators from Stargate. or, what about the creatures from dead space?
