JeffL wrote: I think the change to FT Axum was a mistake. I will make sure that FT Axum has at least as much elec as the regular Axum. As for the FT engines, I thought giving them +10% or so to speed would be pretty cool, but speed is a pretty costly stat in terms of balance. You think +5% would be better, freeing up more "points" to make the thrust and turning better? Same goes for FT Tibsi radars |

In general, the BP items that have the new tag that prevents discounts are ones where you are turning one of something into one of something else. For example, a lot of the new Olympus BP's will take among other things, 1 research module and 1 tier 1 item to give back the research module and a tier 1.5 item. The research module and the tier 1 item have the nodiscount tags on them, but the credits, modules, gold/silver/metals, and everything else can be discounted as normal. Almost none of the existing BP's have been given this tag, but we may do so in the future.

Ok, since I still haven't really got a response about my earlier post...
To build a DS+ (just as an example, i'm pretty sure most, if not all other built +ships are fairly similar) costs 1.4b creds, an item form DS, 3 helmets, ada damage module, 1 ada sheet, and 10 dem (ignoring metals and prom costs), which works out to roughly 3 DSs(-the 2 fwings), 1 extra helmet, an ada module, and an ada sheet. And looking at the wiki the DS+ stats compared to a DS are the same except for more hull, more speed, some slightly higher resists, and a 2% damage mod. NONE of them are worse than the DS. FT Fission takes 5 normal fissions, a dem module, and 120m to build FT Grape takes 2 normal grapes, 2 dem modules, and 520m FT Qua Vazuk takes 3 normal QVs, 2 ada mudules, and 500m Fairly similar build costs as that of the +ship and yet many of their stats are actually worse... Even worse, a FT Merc Ramjet takes 3 ramjets, 3 ada modules and 750m to build, and even though I'm pretty sure I have or could obtain the resources to build this, I'm reluctant to do so because the high cost just isn't justified for an engine that most likely will end up with worse stats than the ramjet. Right now, it seems that all the FT bps are good for is selling to an AI base for 20m... |

I'm revising all the stats on FT engines tonight. Going to take away some of the speed in order to boost the main stats so they are at or greater than the regular versions.

I'd just started a team build of about 20 base kits, and wasnt getting any of the kits themselves back as bonus during the stages like I'd hoped to. _________________ Shit doesn't just "happen", it is inevitably caused by some asshole. |

I've changed the Medium Fire on JiJi and other heat beams to a new fire parasite called "Critical Fire", which is the same damage, but it inflicts the damage over 5 seconds instead of 15 seconds, so ti comes a lot faster. Also made a new surgical alternative to JiJi which is a rare DG drop.
These will go in the next time the server is restarted. _________________ For support, please create a support ticket here and I will get back to you as soon as possible. About Star Sonata. |
