In Topic: Thanks for a great mod

17 April 2012 - 02:57 PM

Haha thanks very much! Criticism is generally good, we need to know where we can improve. We don't see too much negativity on the forums though I've seen a few scathing reviews on ModDB from people who don't quite understand the limitations of what we're working with.

My favourite is "No review provided". Interesting to see that 11 people marked it 1/10 but 9 of them don't know why.

It also amuses me that people like to blame the mod for the lag, instead of their PC.

In Topic: About fiddling with xml's.

My question is, is it safe to do that, say up the s/h points by 1/3 of a station. > the damage of small craft by 1/5. > shield refresh rates by 100%

Changing numbers like those should be fine stability-wise. You can even change them mid-game (by alt-tabbing out, and back in) for testing purposes, the game will bring up a screen asking if you want to reload the changed XMLs. I'd recommend only doing it on the galactic map though, not tactical.

Even R2 look embarrassed...

In Topic: Planetary Turbolaser

Whatever you do, please don't make the planetary weapons one-hit-wonders against larger ships.

At the moment in my Imperial GC the planetary turbolaser is working fine, recharge time as said is a bit long, but damage is just about right. Killing Mon Cals is not a problem as long as shields are brought down a bit before firing.

I agree.

If a fleet commander's stupid enough to call for hull-cracking planetary support against a fully shielded ship, they deserve for it not to destroy the target.

We can't do upgraded land buildings, but is there a case for Mark II variants in late campaigns?


I'd say yes, but not too much of an improvement. Maybe either 5% more damage, or a slightly quicker cooldown.

I know Daala in Gorgon can't be used as a reinforcement, if it helps.
