Carriers

Carriers

I have been playing this game for a bit; I love carrier combat. What I really want to do is mod the game so that each carrier has 2x the number of squadron slots that it currently has. It should be a simple matter of opening up "CAPITALSHIP_TECHCARRIER.entity", changing a "2" to "4" and starting a new game. I don't see the entry for that, though. Any help?

ok this is a stupid question but how did u guys get the gray box on the left side of the screen to disappear?


Go to options, then graphics, and then look at the UI choices. You can strip away almost all of the interface if you want to. I think the one you're looking for is "Empire Summary" or something like that.

Does anyone know if units can be added? Or must they be modded over existing units? I'm thinking that certain mods might be fun if you could have (say) 10 types of frigates, but only 2-3 cruisers. Or something...

Adding additional units is pretty straigtforward. I encourage everyone interested in modding to download my mod and spend some time examining what I've done. The short answer is, PlayerTech.entity is the critical file to add your new units to the various shipyards.
