Hehe. I look forward to the results. Might be a few extra surprises for you to use in there as well, that I didn't put in a mission

Latest version is now available for download. Check first post. Balance is still an issue, but at least there's variety of things now

EDIT: How does a minimod sound, where instead of the spacecraft, it has the likes of gunships? It wouldn't cease development of the proper mod, just a wee side project I thought might be interesting.

I think balancing is the real work that's going to be annoying for me. That and figuring out how to get the weapons to feel like what you see in the Mass Effect games while still being enjoyable to play

Don't suppose you have top-down pictures of those ships, for easy spritification?

I er... you edited that in!

Apologies for my incompetence. Thought I had read through everything here, shows what I know ;P

Well, because I'm such a nice guy, here's a teaser pic of what's been done for the next version, which should be released rather soon.

I don't suppose someone could say what a decent spreadsheet application would be for getting ship data and all that sorted out. I know that I have found using OpenOffice is like pulling teeth since it likes to chuck the formatting of everything to whack. It might also help other people that keep getting the "id" not found thing, as I believe that's the cause of the problem 9 times out of 10.

Admittedly, it's only really the wing data and weapon data that I'm having annoyances with now thanks to the ship editors that are out there

If you have them all with variants and in the ship_data.csv file, then you should be able to just kludge them together into a copy of the example mission, where you just replace the ships there with your own ones. If that's what you're wanting.

...I may or may not have done that myself

Magnets? What's wrong with your good old armour piercing hookshot? If you're going with the oldies but goodies, you may as well make them as brutal as possible

Upgradecap, you've just reminded me of something that I would like to see: Harpoon launchers. Just to keep those blasted frigs within range of the fun weapons

I'll possibly have to get back to you on that one, the renders so far aren't looking all that glaring from what I've played, it's mainly the placeholder weapons that are being funny.

I'll see about that though, not writing you out of things yet

What kind of artwork do you mean? I imagine a few of the weapons on the ships will have to be invisible, due to the underslung/generic high tech nature of them. I would like to have an extra set of hands on the team, but at the same time I would also like them to feel appreciated.

Yeah, it would be hella difficult to balance, but I can see potential with the rough idea in a support-role

Well, it seems that this weapon I'm trying to add is being more resistant than I would like it to be. Are there any real extra matters to take into consideration concerning them?

EDIT: Nevermind, turns out it was OpenOffice being an idiot to me

Are you trying to reduce my already too low productivity?

But in all seriousness, that does sound rather enticing
