Highliner Mod - 1.04b - PBW Observations & Patch

General Woundwort · #1 June 7th, 2003, 04:50 PM

I'm in the midst of my first really ambitious SEIV project - the Highliner Mod. I'm posting the current readme file below to convey the general concept of the mod. Your feedback is very much appreciated.

CURRENT STATUS...

Data files - 66% completed (components and facilities still in work, most other basic data files already completed or left unchanged)

AI/race files - 10% (some changes made in generic AI files, others will follow once data changes complete)

Image files - 80% (intro screens complete, mini files for substitute highliner pics needed)

[see updated readme further up the thread]

I read the readme and I like most of the new concepts.

Sounds good;~ General Woundwort

Only actual ships can drop troops. Ships can not be carried. So, your fighter/drone "system ships" can't invade planets.

Oooo. Your ships can land on planets. That's cool.

Forgive me for being obtuse, but has this already been tried? If it has, I can still work around this limitation; but if it hasn't I'd like to see if it would work.

Fighters can not land on enemy planets and can not travel through warp points. Ships can not be carried in cargo, and can not land on any planets. Troops can not exist in space at any time. They can only be in cargo, either on a ship or a planet (yours or an enemy's).
