The main problem isn't that capital ships have a high demand - it's that the combat system forces the creation of larger vessels to defend oneself against larger factions and/or richer factions. If fleets were more viable to use against large ships, then this whole issue would go away. Right...

Just realized we are talking about two different things. Oops. Lol.

You cannot hit docked entities with any weapon from the main ship. Power supply on tte module is all that works. I suggest spending a few hours in singleplayer testing out the best designs - it's the only thing that will give you enough understanding of the system that you can refit it after a...

You have no idea how pissed the Imperium is that I *upgraded* my ships with them. Talk about heavy hitting - I had 50k mass warships that could deal almost 30mil damage in a single volley without nukes XD And then fire it again 20 seconds later. :D

You cannot please everyone, true. But you can fix a system based on outdated assumptions. I like the idea too. It distinguishes those who truly understand how the game works from everyone else, methinks. Unfortunately the risk is just awful.

I have a logistical ship design I'm waiting to refit when they get the things working. :) Personally, I'd love to have shields and hull buffed by at least ten times. That would bring logistics ships into the fold a bit, methinks. SuperTitans, ofc. 400k+ mass.

And......this thread is why we need to fix the missile mechanics for docked entities.

You nailed it, pal. This is definitely a viable idea. I use those docked generators in every one of my new ships nowadays . :D I actually have gotten some flak for it because some people don't like a 30k mass ship having the weapons of one twice her size :eek: Regardless, we need a way to...

My engineer managed to coax 400 e/sec out of his modules last night :)

I'd hope so. I'm tired of either ditching or manually repairing the holes in my ships after combat. It just takes too damn long.

Clipping isn't the only issue - docking ports themselves are extremely inflexible in size and shape.

It was either this or Dropbox, and Dropbox has been giving me some weird errors lately. :) And this config IS code - it's just formatting code. No offense, but what are you talking about? are you sure you are in the right thread? None of these problems have ANYTHING to do with the mod. I'd...

Because I use it for the other games I mod. What's wrong with it? .ZIPs are fairly compatible files.

First off, please read the thread to become familiar with the mod itself: http://starmadedock.net/threads/enders-capitals-balance-mod.4463/ A word of warning before downloading: In the current version of this mod, ALL SHIPS will appear to have damaged armor, glass, door, and crystal blocks...

It does, yes, but it still means you need to mine a couple of planets to get one small frigate.

Negative. 3 minutes to 6 minutes. Beam Weapons will make it easier to hit and kill fast moving targets. The difference is that capital ships will have a harder time killing jammed fighters. However, you've made me think. It's a problem and I'll look into it.

Heh. Good luck. Even Mfleet has a bunch of folks who enjoy bullying the less fortunate on the server.

The goal of this mod is as follows: 1. To dramatically increase the length of combat in order to provide some measure of tactical thought to PvP. 2. To make Hull actually matter without making pretty ships obsolete or unnecessarily nerfing other types of ships. 3. To eliminate/discourage the...

We are at war with the largest faction on the server. I fight every time I get on.

Yes, but it's the tool you use to amass wealth by buying in actual well-crafted ships from singleplayer. This niche stuff only lasts for so long before EVERYONE has EVERYTHING. Like right now, my faction members are all TRILLIONAIRES in terms of amassed materials and we have enough materials...
