IMPORTANT!

Be very careful when deploying the cruisers and above for any new ship, they tend to collide while coming onto the battlefield and bad things happen, especially with the Halcyon and Spirit of Fire!
-

So far only the UNSC and Unknown forces are implemented!
Also, the UNSC may be over-powered.. Slightly :P
PPS - They all have the same objective of attack the Hegemony station, so that will be a hot spot for the time being..
PPPS - They Halcyon, and UNSC destroyer will receive a detailed overhaul, I just wanted to get them in!

Loving the red tempest, but its WAY overpowered. Finished its mission with just that ship at 100% without even trying on the first go.

Also, welcome to the forum!!

EDIT: Also the tactical briefing still has lines in it that I think aren't meant to be there.

And I hope you will let me into this tight knit modding community I've been spying for a very long time now..

Hello, Fishy. Of course you're welcome here. :) There is no "Fanboi Style Council" playing at being gate-keepers.

Don't believe him!!

They have their spies everywhere. Lurking for people who get out of line.

I've tried for years to part of the elite but have never bin accepted, those bastards.

Oh no, they are on to me, I've said to much...

Hey MiniFishy, how did you get the asteroids to deal so much damage to your capital ship but not to the smaller varieties?

did you check the ships mass?

If you set a ships mass absurdly high, asteroids do tons of damage to the ship whenever they collide, while having lower mass does less damage.

Woops, the red tempest isn't mine, that's from one of the devs example mods I used for the mod structure, I just completely forgot to remove that mission.

I didn't know they were doing that? I always thought they were affecting the smaller ships more, that is weird..

Yeah, funny how a small asteroid can hit such a huge ship and deal like 1200+ damage to armor but when a smaller ship bumps into same asteroid it only does like 12 or so.

It's probably the mass like FlashFrozen mentioned, it being 200000 and all. I think you went a little overboard there.  ;D

Quite possibly, I'll look into that.
And 200000 is for the bigger version of the sprite - in the big edition of the fleet test.
I'll be honest though, when play testing I never recall seeing such huge numbers when an asteroid hit me.

It's much, much worse then that actually.

Just tried it again to be sure and I got two early hits right of the start, was no way to dodge the things.

Got hit for 3000+ the first time and 4000+ damage the second time.
As you can see from the second picture I already started losing hull points, and I haven't even fully entered the battle space yet.

Ah yes, I've just realised why I have never seen this. I decided to hugely up the mass of the larger ship and then completely forgot to playtest this.
Just a massive oversight by me, it will be fixed in the update.
