*pokes some more*

cool thanks

infact do you know how to make a module that can only be placed next to a one other type of module

like modular boilers or modular weapons

i get you and no... the only adjacency bonus that is around right now is one where it boost(or decreases) the hp of any touching modules.

and i don't think there are any restrictions as of yet, other than some clever use of crew movement paths where you have modules that are split in two sections that can only be accessed from a different one and even that can be bypassed with corridors.

ok thanks dude....or lady

i dont really know

it's the internet, everyone is a dude even when it's not, or at least that's how it used to be in the old days. thinking of it the only thing that is modulair is posibly a ram brace that could boost the hp of it. there is a acuracy booster but that just has to be on the ship for it to work.

anyway already tried pearing into the deep dark that costum crew/troops?

oh im trying the troop thing for my new airplane troops and it is hard

and yeah im thying to think of a diffrent way to do the boiler

look at it if it's a chain of requirements

module needs crew,

this crew needs a simple(distant look) from the spritesheet

and a animationbundle(how it animates and where the limbs are attached as well as)

at the same time needs a animationappearance where the body parts in use are listed, located in the img and sized.

you can also change the particles like bloodsprays and the sounds they make

this is the whole reason why re-skining is simple but you hardly see any new looking crew, because if it's human like you only need to change their appearance. buecuse you only need to add one thing

yeah thanks for this and i got it all done so im thying my new drones

well i just updated me mod with some drones so enjoy and tell me how they are thanks

and can you help me make a meele like a saw blade thats in the game?

also im have some trouble with land troops like small tanks not like bording troops if you can help that that will be wonderful

eh yeh, you can, you just have to copy it's stats and look at how it does things, and it's basicly a fast fireing gun that has a max range that is extremely close and overlaps with the barrel sprite.

well i guess you could copy a plane but then change it's stats to be more spider/marine like(CanFly: nope,) there is allot you can do.

you can say how far they can jump(or at all), how fast they are, if they can board or if they are anti-air.

if you give someting "ismachine": true, it will auto-deploy and start figthing stuff on it's own but it also can be repairble or be a one time use thing that is not able to be fixed in the field like smart ammo.

it's why i like that zark in 3 months-ish will change the crew animation from point based vectors to your traditional animated sprites that use standard animation frames as that is much easier for the lame-man to use.
