Just some mod feedback

from Sins Forums
I was screwing with the gravity well sizes (hint, 250000 is not a good size...) and I thought "hey, somebody should make a post about moding the beta..."
so here it is. just comment on what/how you did something and if it was worth it.

No, he said he did get it, but his machine wasn't up to par.

Well, I modded the game to let me use more then 100 planets and 4 systems. Every game with more then 100 planets and 4 systems has eventually crashed for no apparent reason. I'd say editing the 'Galaxy.galaxysetup' file is no good. Well you can edit it, but if you use more then 100 planets and 4 systems..I'm pretty sure you'll run into a crash sooner or later.

Right now ive modded Raze Planet so it has 25000 range and does more damage. I also set it up so levels 0-2 fire 4-6 shots respectively. I like it much better, but the ship AI wants to fly off into netherland when i use it.. lol.

Even with my high damage values it doesnt seem to damage planets all that much. It might be bugged.

In the past ive modded it so that ships generally had more CPs and fighter/bomber squads were twice as big. That didnt work out in the long run though.

oh thank god, someone on the forum who actually listens to things I've said dozens of times...
25000 range and does more damage

wanted to wack it from across the well?

I'm thinking of trying to overlap the gravity wells, see what happens. (it'll probably crash)

Sorry Schem, my mistake.

As for your crossed grav well, let us know what happens.

If you guys want I could set up a modding forum on the basically inactive forums on my domain for projects and people could UL them for others.

That would be an excellent idea.

The forum is here. The downloads section has a 2MB limit however I have the user thread attachment set to a higher amount. Sorry I'm no php person and my php guy bailed due to personal issues.
