The map looks cool, especially the starlanes
but remember, that the AI can't work fine with one tiled pieces of Land. The AI woun't colonize other plantes![]()
Would it be possible to have the planets as, say, empty, undefended cities (and make it impossible to raze them)? (his would also make it possible to "name" planets, per se.
Also, I remember a mod a while back that enabled placing cities on water. That might work for placing "city islands" - I'm trying to find a way that would make marines the only unit for taking planets (ships would be able to bombard, but not conquer).
Bob McDob I realy like your ship designs, especialy the dreadnought in the lower right. Have you tryed making any animations your self? Unit animations for a space mod are prety easy, you don't realy need to work about shadows, and the animations are a peice of cake, just a flash of light for the guns and slow dismemberment or change of graphics for the death animation.

The two bigger ones aren't mine, though: all of them are based on ships from the movie Wing Commander (although the two small ones are mostly my design, since they were seen onscreen only briefly, and then not in great detail). I have another ship to replace it, though. I haven't done any animations, but I suppose I could try.
