Don't mean to get off topic here, but:
I just recently did a series of tests on this... I was trying to create the ability for certain aircraft to airdrop naval mines into the sea. So I created an immobile naval unit (the naval mine), and was able to load it into the aircraft, but when the aircraft paradrops it into any water tile (sea,ocean, coast), the unit was destroyed. In further tests, I found that the game won't even allow you to paradrop it into a visible water tile. It does allow the unit to be transported to other cities though.
It must be hardcoded that any paradrop unit must hit a land tile (and an empty land tile at that - no units).

Thanks for running that test
IMHO more such tests should be done when questions like this arise (Heaven knows I've done my fair share of them) and the results should go into the Rules or FUBAR thread and definitely the Modiki.

This would've been in my mod had you made it a few years earlier. If i were still a modder i'd make an update to replace some of the units (instead of this there's a wimpy sandy machinegun fort 
).
Great work as always

Now that's what I call perfection 
and quite perfect to complement Sandris'es CoOp Napoleonic scenario with this real beauty of a star fort! Way 2 Go, Wyrmshadow!

I am working on an idea something like that to use Fort Drum as a Small Wonder, and once I get my ideas better firmed up, I will start a new thread about it.

Any good program reccomendations?Resize to your hearts content.
Spoiler :
And that's in a vector format, correct? Might it be better to resize it from that?
I don't know much about this fancy graphics stuff.
Wyrmshadow wonderfull, usefull and unique addition to your allready numerous units. Perfection is attained by slow degrees; it requires the hand of time.
I prefer using Adobe however you might want to try gimp which is a free program. The difference between raster and vector graphics is fairly complex and beyond the scope of this thread. currently the only vector formats that are useable on the world wide web are SVG and SWF. You will need to use a "paint" type program that creates a raster graphic for use as an avatar.

I know this is a bit off topic and doesn't have anything to do with the Starfort, but 38,000 posts?! WOW, that must be some kind of record or something. That guy must stay on Civ fanatics. Either that, or he has a couple of clones and they take turns posting and just update each other on what was said during the day.
