I built a hotel once, on the first island, but it was never fully staffed and the bloody tourists roamed the island freely..... and all those social minions are taking up valuable minion space you could otherwise allot to more useful science or military minions.

And btw, it's fun to see a tourist panic and then get shot by a guard.

It's even more fun to build a lot of disguised Sentry Guns at your base entrance with overlapping fields of fire, and then when he/she walks into the fire zone, tag him/her for death.....

When I have to take out an agent via my sentry guns, I usually tag all of the nearby tourists and agents for death and/or capture. If people land in my kill zone, they're going to get killed

How long do you really think that one system will last? You didn't really think I'd be so foolish as to have no conventional military at all, did you? Also, where are these mystery ships of yours that they won't get destroyed in the megablast of over a third of the galaxy's stars going supernova? Plus, how are you planning to get to me to carry out this rampage? Those warp points aren't staying open forever, you know.

You know, Douglas, doing that to your allies deserves it's very own medal...So here's your Treacherous Jerk award. [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/icon09.gif[/img] I'm sure Renegade 13 will appreciate it.

Settings.txt lets you change the max allowed num of mines/sats per sector..... for Capship I increased the max amount to 1k sats and 5k mines. I know this is absurd (but only realized this just now) since the max allowed units is 5k, but if you wanna mine the only WP leading from your home system elsewhere, and if your economy supports thousands of support ships and bases that act as "units", you could choose to max out mines there..... especially if you know there's an enemy COMCA approaching.
