Map idea - is this possible?

from Sins Forums

I've had an idea for a map which goes something like this.

Each player starts at the end of a chain of planets leading to the local star (the size of the chain and whether they lead to the same star can be tweaked). The first player who reaches the local star has a small advantage, so that keeps the pressure on.

However - and here we have the twist - every single planet in the chain is heavily populated by Pirates. And also (this is important) the planets themselves become increasingly heavily fortified as you reach the local star.

Is this doable? Has it been done?

Oh, erm, Entrenchment naturally. ;)

carbon16 that is NOT possible in a map, only in a mod

That's what I meant, sorry. Obviously in a map it'd be impossible.

My stopgap solution right now is to have a 1 hour or so death timer (like as DOME has done) and then have infinite waves of reinforcements for the attacker every few minutes.

You can modify the amount of resource asteriods and set it to a set rate, but it requires modifying the GalaxyScenarioDef file.

 

You cannot mod resource asteroids with the GalaxyScenarioDef file. You have to mod the planet entities themselves to specify exactly how many of which types of asteroids are spawned.

thats what I meant, sorry if I worded it improperly, English is hard for me (and sadly I am an United States Citizen, typical)

Okay sorry, I don't mean to sound like I want to correct every little thing everyone says, but if I had asked that question, I would be searching the GalaxyScenarioDef file in vain trying to find something to do with research asteroids.  X|
