Greetings,

Thank you for the welcoming...
Here is another stupid question. Do you know where in the files I must check to see the population "resistance" to the damage of the planetary weapons? I am curious to compare with the normal SEIV scenario. I was able to find the ship design and the tech design. Quite interesting.

Thank you

It's in Data/Settings

Damage Points To Kill One Population := 50

The normal one is

Damage Points To Kill One Population := 10

so it's 5 times as hard to kill population in the star trek mod.

Greetings,

Thank you for the fast answer. I just did a small test and I am still puzzled.

My fleet has at least 400,000 damage points (all napalm and planetary bombs. I did not count the plasma torpedoes and other weapons). The planet has 5000M population. In one attack, the population went down to 4732M.

Does it make sense? to you?

Thank you

Thank you

Some damage go to buildings.

I'm sorry but you'll have to wait for someone who knows more to come along. I'm not aware of exactly how everything works. I am faintly aware there is a whole formula that involves destroying the weapons platforms first and cargo before the damage moves over to population. You say you haven't counted the torpedo damage, are you aware that all weapons damage works the same on population, it's just that bombs are made specifically to target population. If there is quite alot of the other types of weapons they might be responsible for the disparity in the final amount.

Greetings,

Thank you for your answers. I feel you are right. Anyway, I'll change my strategy and capture the planets instead of glassing them. And if it really does not work, I'll just change back the seeting to 10...

Tis mod is still very fun to play.

Thank you

After all arent the borg supposed to capture planets ? I guess the population is eagerly waiting to be incorporated into the hive
