Can someone tell me which station the Borg use to auto generate resources? I'm not sure which one it is or if it's the collective connections thing at their starbase?
So started back to work on the mod and have a question. The Rebel turrets will be based on the FO Fed turrets so you build the base platform and then select which weapon platform to transform to. In studying the Fed platforms in FO I don't understand why they set it up like they did?
For example in FO you build fed-platformY which then has 4 weapon platforms to choose from-pulse, phaser, torpedo, and sensor. If you click fed-platform-pulseR it takes you to a replace weapon that says if fed-platformY then go to fed-platformP. This takes you to another file whose only weapon "fed-platform-pulsePR" takes you to another replace weapon file that says if fed-platform-pulseP then finally go to fed-platform-pulse which is the actual file that has all the stats and weapons etc assigned to it.
I'm confused as to why when you click the first weapon platform to transform to it doesn't just replace it with that platform and be done? Do you have to go through 2 separate replace weapon odf's just to get there? Can't you just do like the Rom-Talon refit and just have 1 replace weapon file go to the final odf?
How goes this mod?
I haven't really modded much since last December either, but getting back into it.
Imperials:
All ships including launchable fighters in place and functional
Starting base (platform) in place and functional
Have/need to install research stations, mining station and weapon/sensor platforms
Awaiting models for main starbase and shipyards
Rebels:
Quasar Frigate and all Corvettes in place and functional
All launchable fighters in place and functional
Have "most" of the remaining Frigates/Cruisers ships to install. Awaiting the larger Mon Clamari ones
Have/need to install weapon/sensor platforms
Awaiting models for all remaining stations (research/mining/shipyards)
Then just balancing and playability testing. Hashing out many ideas with Majestic through PM for gameplay
I'm sorry about that Majestic. I spoke incorrectly. You did send me the Rebel Dreadnought, Gallofree, MC30, MC40, MC80a, MC80b, and transport.
I meant to reply earlier Darklight so sorry about that. I don't think you can really "teach" someone to mod. We can certainly offer help, tips, pointers, and guidance, but all you really need to do is grab a mod from somewhere and follow it's instructions to put it in game. That will give you the foundation you need to mod.I hate not knowing how to mod at your levels guys, otherwise I would help. Maybe if you're both willing to teach me, via email or youtube (visual learner lol) I can help out.
Limited fire-arc may help. It would at least prevent it from firing backward.Did you set the weapon arc to be very small? So it will force the turret to turn to face the target to fire.
