Spawning PlanetModules in Enemy Gravity Wells and At Stars? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Hi, Working on a new mod and trying to figure out if i can spawn "PlanetModules" at enemy grav wells, or at stars? Some of the planetmodules of course use abilities that can be used in frigates or capitals to produce those effects outside the well, like in enemy grav wells. Others like the culture center have the ability "built in" to the structure itself and have no abilities that let them do what they do. But

Reply to No more sins addons after pax? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I would be willing to pay the price for a full retail game $49-$69 for an expansion/sequel. I mean, sure the $9.99, was really unheard of and very very cool, but maybe the investment/payback was not worth continuing? Anyway, i would love to see more, and games cost money anyway, $49 plus would be fine for a campaign and moveable turrets. I mean, i loved HomeWorld, it was waaaaayyyyyy ahead of its time. But the graphics are dated now. Sins looks "prettier" than any space rts out there!

Reply to removing prerequisites in Sins Modding Sins Forums

:) Very very nice!! Reminds me of the "Phase Scouts" mod for 1.05 Vanilla Sins. :) Very nice thinking. I am unfamiliar with some of the modifiers you are using, but haven't modded enough abilities to be very familiar with all of them, but very interesting. Thank you for the tip Whiskey, nice work!! -Teal

:) Yes, it is there by default. It should appear shortly after starting the game, call frigate factory, call extractors for the asteroids, call the cap factory, wait... wait... Haha, it is something. :) I will figure it out. Just takes time to track down the mistakes i put in when changing things. :) Thank you for the thought though, -Teal

Reply to Modding problem in Sins Modding Sins Forums

:) Tesla, Why not spawn a ship or turret, with whatever mesh you want, keep it stationary or mobile using the abilitydeploy ability and put a lifetime on it, say 120 seconds? The ship holds the ability to spawn your mines, then the ship dies at the end of its expiration time from the abilitydeploy ability? :) That is what i would do, its less m

Small Problem Lately in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Hi, I've been re-working a mod of mine and have run into a small problem, i'm starting a game and the builder never appears. I should mention im using a 4th race i created, so i am thinking i messed up something somewhere, but wanted to ask if this has happened to other people. I dont think it happens in the regular game with no mods, but im not sure yet, as it happens infrequently, usually after i change something.

Reply to Diplomacy is the last micro expansion. in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

This is just a thought, ok, but maybe we are all reading too much into this, i mean, "last micro-expansion of the series" may simply mean it is the last "micro-expansion" Which "May" mean, a full expansion at something like normal expansion costs, say $39-$49. Which is fine with me, perhaps it is the "micro-expansion" model that didn't pan out, not the Sins model that didnt. But of course, all i am doing is guessing. It would be nice for an "Official" word though, i me

Reply to Questions!! :D in Sins Modding Sins Forums

:) Loading Advent seeker's or Vasari frigate factories, or whatever else from the other races you would like to include for your Tec race, im assuming its the Tec race, yes? Anyway, just open the playerTec.entity file in notepad and look at the ships. Just copy over the lines from the appropriate PlayerAdvent or PlayerPhase.entity files (copy and paste) and dont forget to change the numbers at the top of each list, :) and then save, close and start up Sins, when you

Reply to Question: Is There Such A Thing As An Economic Win? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

:) The last one here, was much the same thinking i was on, i havent played multiple stars, and online not yet at all, but the "buying" of allies and "pirates" was one i was thinking along the same lines as you, perhaps even a weak military force with enough money could pull it off. It certainly would make a different kind of game play to concentrate on that if i know that my ships cant stand up to a larger or more powerful force. :) Thank you for the ideas, i appreciate it very
