Auto Launching Ships -- CariElf

January 9, 2004 10:47 AM from

I have found that using Rally points to send colony ships to planets works well. It would work really slick though if we could have a setting on the planets screen that when you auto launch a colony ship or transport ship that you could specify how many people should be loaded. So we could have the check box for auto launching and either a text box or a pull down menu with percentages for specifting how may citizens/troops to load. As it stand right now it automatically does half your population and sometimes you want more or less. Is this possible at all?

Actually, I think it's a quarter of your population.

There's really not a lot of room right there to be putting any more controls.

Tell you what, try this and let me know how well it works. If it doesn't seem to mess up the AI's colonization strategy, I'll post it as a certified mod. It's a colony ship with a limit of 1000 colonisits.
