What you would like in a Mod

[HEMAN]

From the modes that i played, none have these:

(A) More selections of componets for mines ?.
(B) Planet Facility Jammer > When placed built on a planet ,any of players ship/fleets at this planet will not be detected by other AI enemy potencial ships.
(C) Combat senser+ECM in, All in one comp.
(D) Combat senser+Multiple tracking ,All in one comp.

I'd like a mod with oodles of different weapon mounts. Like point defense mounts with better accuracy and less range, point defense arrays that take lots of space but do lots of accurate damage at close range (can mount change the type targeting ability of weapons too?) Progressively heavier mounts that have reduced accuracy and increased range and damage, mounts that increase range and size (and cost) but not damage, combinations of mounts.

Basically, something like Master of Orion 2 had. I miss my heavy continuous fire automatic shield piercing extended firing arc phasors. There is no reason in stock Space Empires IV to pick any mount other then the largest available.

Check out Deathstalkers Mount Mod and AJC Mount Mod.

(A) More selections of componets for mines ?.

All that can be on mines is various types of warheads and cloaking devices. Check out Adamant and P&N for mods with lots of different kinds of damging warheads. Adamant has cloaking separated from the mine hulls for the mines, allowing even more development.

(C) Combat senser+ECM in, All in one comp.
(D) Combat senser+Multiple tracking ,All in one comp.

Would these just be a 10 kT comp that gives the same levels as the normal components? Or a 20 kT? Or maybe reduced effectiveness? Please specify.

• Realism, to the point of absurd if you must. including solar systems, descriptions, etc
• Meaningful descriptions (esp. usage of the hull description feature)
• A gravity racial tech i would enjoy
• Some thought given to better weapon balance
• Optional - custom racestyles with history and a campaign scenario
• SP-compatible
• Expanded and reviewed stock racial techs
• Rework of the mount model
• Expanded cultures
• AI to use the new features of the mod
• Good developer support
• New, original graphics
• Size vs Power balance reviewed (more usefulness to smaller ships, and some to fighters)

My 2 cents. looks much more than 2 cents tho One day, i'll get around to try and assemble at least some of these into a mod of my own. maybe.

Many mods have most of your list Taera. The gravity tech is the major lacking one, as you have already said you don't like that in P&N.

[Taera]

i never said mods dont have that, and yes i dont like the P&N gravity tech tree, but then again my inspirations are different.
