Half the damage option | Globally
« on: October 05, 2015, 10:27:37 PM »

This is a personal request on my part but here goes.

I enjoy some parts of playing the game on the half damage, it feels rewarding running a single ship against entire armadas which would be practically impossible if I was taking full damage. I like how standoffs were common in the early game too and the overall progress, but well, it is unfair. Everything I attack dies too quickly compared to my ship and the same for my allies.

Would it be too difficult to add a toggle to half the damage for everything else too? Sure, it will mess up the balance, but it doesn't need to be turned on by default. Like a little cheat option.

I'm not sure I understand here. Isn't there already a toggle?

Cyan means a toggle to make all ships take half damage, not just the player's flagship.

trivial via modding, if this isn't done by the time I get home today, I can probably whip up a minimod that does this

Does half damage half damage before armor?

I think is easy for Simba and Mufasa sing the Circle of Life when they're on the top of the food chain, I bet the zebras hate that song.
