Re: SE5 Beta 1.70 Changelog

Perhaps one way to deal with this (if this is possible for MM to do?) would be to make shields have a short delay before being 'raised' in combat. Say 0.5 seconds or something. That would give time...

Re: A couple questions, SE: V & IV

Thanks. I guess I'll just have to keep plugging at it and see if I can figure it out.


And from there - another question: How are maintainance reductions calculated? From my own testing, it...

Re: A couple questions, SE: V & IV

Actually, I have started using the Balance mod, which has definitely helped in that regard. Still trying to remember and figure out all the tech dependancies again.

Ahh, I just checked. When I...

A couple questions, SE: V & IV

I just came back to SE from a multi-year hiatus, and grabbed a copy of SE:V.

First thing I've noticed, and I just want to confirm - does Advanced Storage Techniques in SE:V no longer add facility...

Re: Which planet/atmosphere type do YOU pick ?

I usually take Rock/Methane... because purple is so much nicer than green or orange, and rock/oxy is too common (again, lost trading potential)

Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

This would also make small "lightning strikes" and raids much more useful, and require even large empires to defend their major construction centers.

I also like the fact that this would allow you...

Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

A proper "fog of war".
- when your ships leave a system, all colonies you saw should remain shown, and unchanging until another ship moves in, just like in other similar games

If you've modified the settings.txt so that bases can be fleeted, unlimited supplies means unlimited supplies.

Re: Where Do You Live

I love Kamloops... of course, I lived in small towns all my life, and Kamloops at 80k is the biggest for me, so if you're used to big cities and all the todo Kamloops might seem a bit slow.

Re: Dreadnoughts vs Baseships

In stock, which I use depends primarily on my opponent. In most games, I'll build primarily Dreadnoughts, because that that +40% to be hit on baseships can make a big difference. However, in any...
