This mod sound really interesting but there is little detail about what is all about?
Is it compatible with any other mod or do you just run this one only?
Does it have a victory condition like exelerin?
I am guessing it has it's own factions right so you can't use any other mod right?
There is really too little information about what is this all about.

Planet surveying doesn't seem to work; I took 5 probers and turned up nothing after 15 planets.

Why does it says that the mod is updated for 0.7.3 when the latest version is 0.7.2a?

[Drglord]

Just the 5 cents from a guy that has finished exelerin about 20 times now. This is a great idea but really poorly executed i guess. Does most weapons have ammo as i have seen so far?
Is there a reason everything is so slow i found the worst part of the game that it took ages to go somewhere and even frigates have burn 6 on this one? Is there a reason?

The mod retains some of the older game mechanics and it works pretty well IMO. Burn levels on frigates vary from 6-10, starting "frigates" are actually armed shuttles (hence the "gunship" in their names) and are meant to suck. Starting out is pretty hard and the mod is hard overall.

[Drglord]

I am not talking about starting ships. Cruisers have burn level 6 and 5 etc.

Pros:
Many many more star systems to explore.
Have to plan out trips across space; might not be able to make it across the map through hostile territory! This genuinely makes sense!

Cons:
Spent over a year of in-game time without encountering a single horrific space monster, AI, or alien(actively looking for them throughout doing active scans and just floating in their territory)
Over multiple games have yet to see a military world for the Marauders or Widows; meaning the only way to get their capital ships is to be their enemy and capture them. Signing on with the Marauders isn't a good idea.

Suggestions:
Give an established homeworld to everyone, with the 3 alien  factions being outside normal map range?



I still strip down and throw away most ammo-using light weapons; they just eat through ammo so quickly that a bullet-based gunship is out of ammo before it can kill an energy-based gunship. Thats been around since the beginning though almost.

They may not actually be in mod yet. Need to check.

Black market is the way to get their ships. Both factions are agressive isolationists by default. They are not supposed to have military markets.

All ballistinc ammo-using weapons REGENERATE ammo. Use extra magasines to expand the time of the initial efficiency of these guns.

Bug or intented with 0.7.3 ?
Officers max level is 10 ( could count as not a bug )
but
They only get 1 skill point per level, not 3 as vanilla

Both officer related stuff is intended.

I hate to be this guy but I have extremely limited time to sit down and play games and as such I never install mods that don't describe their features in the OP and, if they have ships and weapons added in, don't have at least a screencap of a bunch of them to give you a feel for the level of polish and cohesion. Juuust so you know. Especially when people are posting about how hard it is to start this mod

When i`ll feel that the mod is once again ready to be played - not just 'beta' tested - there will be descriptions and such

[Piemanlives]

Oh *** I hadn't even realized the OP was essentially gone!

[TrashMan]

1.2. random colony redistribution for all factions in their respective sectors
1.3. random amount of colonies per faction

Shouldn't this be more controlled?
IIRC, in your canon the number of colonies factions have is mentioned.

Or at the very least, the ratio is enforced. Restricted randomisation.

[Smoq2]

0.7.3?? How so?

Also, is there some feature description other than the change log? Graphical content? Gameplay vid? Screenshots?

Cheers!
