Interesting. DOesn't sound all that incredibly hard.
To increase survivability (and change the feel of) light frigates and scout frigates, I increased their speed and gave them the fighter combat moves. (Sweeping turns, etc. It's actually kind of fun- they now run only a fraction below most of my rebalanced missiles, meaning they can dodge for a long time.) Catch is, they make a strafing run on a target and smack into it, stopping dead- and getting turned into ash. Any ideas on how to let them have true fighter physics- passing through the edge
well, the great thing about this is there is an unused, pre-included ability I rewrote. Makes life easier.

Quick question about DS- I have a mod I've been working on for a very long time (Several months now) aimed at rebalancing the game 'just the way I like it." However, I really like things you've added, like the freeport station for example, and such. As well as several of the new celestial bodies. The thing is, I added a new ship per faction and a lot of stats. Does anyone know how I could dump my mod onto this somehow, to get the benefits of both? <p
I reworked the abilities to ONLY target starbases and CapShips. Retooled the cooldown a touch. Thanks, you have no idea how much this helped. The modding continues. XD
You're awesome. Seriously :D
Woo! ALMOST there! One question. I don't remember -ever- seeing these before. Are they used by anything else, or would my complete repurposing be okay? They seem to be vestigial items from Beta, but I can't be sure.
And how do I copy the effects from the attacks of those two ships? Is there a way? Would it be possible to fire the 'ability' from the same spot as the regular weapon? Etc? x.x I seem to have more questions than when I started...
Now, to get this straight. Means I'd have to make an entirely new ability, right? edit; sorry, what I mean is. >
Like that speedboost ability on the Kodiak. It doesn't consume any antimatter... has a decent cooldown...?
GOT to be a way, I'm not giving up NOW. Maybe an ability? Make it use the same animations as normal firing for the ship's weapon, target capship only?
Is there any way to add a weaker secondary then? edit: Or not, that'd still target frigates. Grr.
Gah. So it's impossible? Damn.
I know I saw something with a list "Capship" "Frigate" "Structure" etc. But I can't remember how/where it fit in!
okay, so that'll open it up, good- getting closer. But how do I open it ONLY to capships?

Quite simply, I'd like to allow the anti Structure Cruisers (Ogrov and Solanus) to target cap ships as well as structures, so as to fit more with a mod of mine.
I made some capship models larger, but now the engine effects look tiny by comparison. However, I can't figure out how to fix it in particleforge. Help?
well, either?
I made several models larger (as I felt it made capships more ominous) but the engine effects are now forked. How do I make the engine plumes larger?
so how do I do that?
Simple question. How do I make it so things like "Space Junk" and "Asteroid Belts" actually have things IN them, instead of a single rock or something? It just doesn't feel like it's got the needed effects.
How'd you optimize it?
Ye gods- something I did minidumped it. maybe the cosmetics just aren't worth it. XD
Twilight- I don't think so. I think all you can do is make it invulnerable- but it still takes healing.
