Station Balance

With the new ship interiors making capital ships and freighters much harder, that makes some stations surprisingly... fragile. Logically, a Huari Fortress should have more "interior" than a Destroyer, yet it takes quite a bit of weapons fire to take down a Destroyer, and then it's relatively simple ...

Re: 1.2 Beta 1 is Ready!

What units do the size field in planets use? Is it kilometers or something else? And I'm guessing the size classifications (eg. SizeI or SizeM) are just sequential?

Re: On Meteorsteel Armor & Dust, Monopole Deflector & Dust..

6. If regenerating nanos regenerate, why can't degenerating nanos degenerate as to actually continuously eat thru armor (like transuranic armor decay)? Alfino's right. However, if you already have an enhancement, the degenerating nanos will just remove the enhancement. It's a consequence of how enh...

tinkering with SpaceEnvironmentType

Just thought I'd post this here to save someone else from wondering. SpaceEnvironmentType is only used in vanilla Trans for two instances; nebulae, and the Heretic quarantine effect. The Heretic quarantine effect is achieved through script, and the nebula has only three fields; attributes, which can...

[George] Completely unimportant question about star names

Were the names of star systems chosen at random? Or was there a specific pattern? Because 70 Ophiuchi is 17ly away and Beta Centauri (Hadar) is 350ly away. They are not even close but yet are the same level. Also was there a reason you chose the stars you did and not others? 'Cause Teegarden's Star ...

Re: Extension loading

I thought modules only worked in an adventure extension, not a normal extension.

Extension loading

I'm having trouble loading extensions containing items defined in a different extension. For example, I have a weapon in an extension called "Weapons," but when I try to use that weapon in a different extension called "Ships," Trans tells me it's an unknown design type. I think that Trans is loading...

Re: Light carrier

When I finally release it, feel free to use it in your own mods. I compared it to the original model to make sure the proportions were the same, but everything (even the engines) are scratch built. The fighter looks a little weird right now because it's way to big compared to the carrier, but it's s...

Re: Light carrier

I use Blender with Gimp for a little post-processing. Oh, and Photoscape to stitch the rotations together. The fighter is actually meant to be Centurion-sized and looks less crab-like (I hope) at lower resolutions. I just posted one of the raw .pngs

Light carrier

I came up with the idea for a light CSC a while back, a Commonwealth Light Carrier, or CLC if you will. Inspired by the Sepoy during the British Raj, I did an eastern version of it. I'm showing off a bit, but I'm pleased with how it turned out. http://imageshack.us/a/img836/9777/0004u.png I also did...

Re: Enhancement tags

I should mention when it says +Unknown or +Unk Immune, that's literally what the tag says. What's most surprising to me is the 0x040X code. This means you could have a segment of orthosteel that heals itself with ion damage. An interesting concept for sure. 0x0002 is useful for removing beneficial e...

Enhancement tags

I was working on a mod where I was messing with the enhancement codes for armor and decided to post it here as there are more than what's on the wiki legend page. I only did these for armor, but you can see a correlation to shields and weapons. 0x0001 +Enhanced seems to be a generic enhancement 0x00...

Re: dark matter might NOT exists at all

Very interesting. I always thought "dark matter" and "dark energy" were grandiose names for "stuff we have no idea about."

Re: Do only spaceship captains get called by Domina?

That's my point. We don't know anything about these factions and why they are hostile towards you. Put yourself in the place of some Kobol captain. The Commonwealth attacks you on sight, but your people have managed to build a station in some backwater system. Suddenly you get the call from Domina. ...
