Is that what the Antedilvian's station is going to look like?

If it were possible to have unique station graphics for each faction, yes. Unfortunately this is not yet possible. The trade station will be a flyable ship. Immensely slow, but no visible engines to disable. Very slow turn rate. 1x large energy, 1x large missile, 4x medium ballistic, 12x small ballistic and 4x small missile weapons. Several hangars and docks. Large cargo space. Basically it can be used as a powerful freighter or extremely slow carrier.

Here's an image of what the station would roughly look like when viewed from a different perspective. Fairly flat with a great open dock on one end.

Very much this.

Well Eric, you need to add in proper shield arcs for the Antediluvian ships, currently they cannot properly use the Frontal Shield Generator mod.

[Erick Doe]

I made them incompatible on purpose. Frontal Shield generators are not compatible with Antediluvian technology. However, I may create a shield like ship system.

[Reshy]

Why?  I don't see why you'd purposely make a mod incompatible.  It still costs buckets of OP to equip.

The only problem with using the 0 shield radius method is that it'll bug your ships, making it basically free phasecloak,

Bug it how? I have not experienced any issues.

Missiles tend to pass through the ships, but bullets/energy projectiles tend to hit it like normal. but you basically gain immunity from any missiles and can go through ships.

Ah, I see. You are saying that the problem doesn't start till you actually try and put a frontal shield generator on ships with shields = 0.

Okay. I may just have to add a shield radius then. There is no issue with 0 shield radius itself. But it can be exploited when you try to put a frontal shield mod on a ship that's not supposed to have it.

So what?  The ships don't have tons of OP so putting a shield on them already like halves their firepower.

This thing [Escort Turret] is just... It's... 750 dps for 50 flux... C'MON! I know it's "only" fragmentation dmg but still it's way to op. If it sniff out exposed hull its bye-bye in blink of an eye. One of yours ghost fleet attacked me (simple Lasher) (one wit 3x ghost fighters frigates armed with those things ) and i lose 3 or 4 times and then i did auto combat and i win. Again and again and again until i weaken them so much that finally the lose 2 fighter squadrons (before that they always retreated).

[Erick Doe]

You were hoping to win against a ghost fleet in a simple lasher? 

Of course that's not going to happen.

These weapons are also not available to the player, though they may rarely be obtained through combat. Consider it a big bonus.

I'm also having a hard time understanding what you're saying. You say that they do retreat when they have fighter squadrons, but do not retreat after they loose their fighter squadrons?

Yes, lot's of people telling me that  So after i load lose, load lose, load lose i decide to give auto resolve a try. It was win but all green ones retreated (in after battle screen below all 3 was RETREATED). Some was damaged. I auto resolve  again because they still wanna fight me. I win again, green ones retreated again but this time they where damage more (damage from first fight and damage from second fight) and they still wanted to fight so i auto resolve for tird time and they end up with 2 destroyed squadrons and third didn't want to fight me any more. 

And then, in spoils of war, i see that little green thingy big as and and strong as WHALE!    I sold it, it was way to much firepower in such small thing... You know... I think... I ... want it back... my precious...

Adding shield radii manually. Daunting task since my custom engines make using the ship editor impossible.
