PS: Grey Fox, it's half past 2 in the morning, what are you doing awake? What's your explanation? Mine is, I'm drunk.

Working on the scenario of course

And last night I was up until 7:30 Am. Staying up late is not a problem for me

Yeah, but what should I use it for? As the mines?

In that case a screenshot more from above would be better.

I can do that, give me 6 mins

edit: change that to 10mins

 

[Bobisback]

How about this I'm in the game right now so tell me what you think.

 

[Grey Fox]

Better. I'll check tomorrow if I can use it in the game.

In naval parlance, a battleship is bigger than a cruiser. Have you read any of the Honor Harrington books by David Weber or the Starfire books by David Weber and Steve White? These books have a lot of detail about the breakout of starship classes. The classes of ships are usually broken out into Escort/Screening ships (i.e. lighter, faster, smaller ships) and Capital ships (big ships with lots of weapons). Here's an example:

Screening ships by increasing capability:
Destroyer-->Light Cruiser-->Cruiser-->Heavy Cruiser-->Battlecruiser

Capital ships by increasing capability:
Battleship-->Dreadnought-->Super Dreadnought-->Monitor

Carriers fall into a category of their own, stratling both the "Screening" role and the "Capital" role:
Escort Carrier-->Light Carrier-->Fleet Carrier-->Assault Carrier

Screening ships should probably use defensive AI, capital ships use offensive AI and carrier used for artillery/bombardment (representing fighters launching to make attacks).

Well, it's just a suggestions anyways. I look forward to seeing the first version of your mod.

Bobbisack, do you mind if i also use the graphic you posted? the last one would be perfect for a barb camp like you said...

cool with me, I can get some more spacestations\planet pictures if you need them.

btw how do you post flcs like that.

 

[Daftpanzer]

Thanks bobisback, Ill try and get that space depot as a barbarian camp ni the game and post a pic.

What i posetd is just a .GIF. I found a program here that converts a flc to a gif (not perfect but it works quite well, easier than construcitng a gif manually)

heres the thread

Improved frigate :

 

[Bobisback]

The units look awsome

btw thanks for the flc converter.

 

[Daftpanzer]

Thanks bobisback!

I had a go at importing that graphic. The structure looks quite thin and skeletal, but i thought that was quite a good effect, looks like an abandoned hulk of some kind...

Could be used for the goody hut also....
