[quote who="Annatar11" reply="4" id="2213714"]You might have to do a little experimenting with this.. I don't have the entity files for the mines here, but in general each entity has this: hudIcon "HUDICON_FRIGATE_PHASECARRIER" smallHudIcon "HUDICONSMALL_FRIGATE_PHASECARRIER" infoCardIcon "INFOCARDICON_FRIGATE_PHASECARRIER" minZoomDistanceMult 1.250000 (this is taken from the Vasari carrier). Either the hudIcon or the smallHudIcon should be what shows

I would 2nd this. I really dislike having the mine icons show up. All the grav walls are now very clutterred Actually i would also like the ability to turn all unit icons off but leave them on for phase lane travel. The game looks really good and for me is more enjoyable without the unit icons but you cant really play without them because then you lose the ability to see ships travelling along phase lines eg the i

thanks for the reply. I think the makeup of the defence belts will take a fair bit of balancing to get right. My goal is that a faction can be heavily outnumbered and have its fleet crushed in the no mans land worlds but still limp back home and start anew from behind the defence belt. An opponent wanting to get through the belt is going to require luck and vast majority of the total max ship cap to get through. If they get turned bac

all i can say is that if you have a laptop with a Nivdia 8400M inside then do not play SINs (or any other game) on it or you will fry your Graphic card and motherboard. Well known problem with all Nvidia GPUs of this type is that they overheat badly. Pretty much everyone who has had one has had their motherboard and GPU Fry. (its crazy...temps of the GPU can hit 100 degress C with just a screensaver running) If this happens to you

Hi im just delving into modding and was wondering if the below was possible with the current tools ? What i want to do is create a star that has 3 clusters of planets (C1, C2 etc). In order to get to each cluster you would need to go through a grav well which would be defence belt. (DB). there is only one phase line to each cluster (through the Defence Belt) C1----DB----C2----DB----C3 It would look like above drawing. There is no

Hi Ive being playing as Vasari on a few large maps recently. (lastest patches 1.5 and 1.2 entrenchment) Ive noticed that the AI is not using its fleets very effectivly against my star bases located at Stars. Its like its not programmed to deal with a SB at a star. What happens is - AI attacks with a relative small force against a full upgraded SB or it attacks in waves. Gets massarced every time. What

what combinations are people using. eg 1 point in Debris Voetex, 1 point Deflector, 2 points in attack and 2 defence ? or is it better to use 1 Debris V, 3 points attack and 2 defence. or another combination. what about squadron bays ? IS a point in squadron bays better than say the final 20% damage attack point ? an

but shouldnt stardock be able to provide me with a new cdkey ? I even took a photo of my receipt with the retail box, manual and cd all showing and included it in my email to them. It seems extremely unreasonable that they wont help me. I was polite and everything
