Or use big engines and loads of power to stay out of range.

Now, there is 1 type of shield that uses NO power, but is very weak. So you add like half your ships full of these !! --> result --> nobody can kill you ships anymore becuase yr shield is to strong !


PROBLEM: this cheap shield is too weak for use agaisnt some weapons. This shield consumes no energy to be active but to contain damage it use energy and by having to bad stats as shield it would deplet your power or fail to contain damage. So when building a ship, use better shields and more power units. k:
not true, i used this tactic over and over again, i never run out of energy or power and the shields never fail even against the strongest weapons, ill just started playing again, as soon as i can build enomrous ships again ill send a screenshot of how the vessel layout should look like.
Trust me this works

Suppose it does work, the game AI is so lousy that even with a hostile environment the computers barely blinked at me. You crush them easily. The computer ignores the Xeno ruins so finding a few of those puts you miles in front of the computer. The computer doesn't retrofit it's ships either, so if you disarm them, but don't destroy them, you can run around killing all the colonies at will.

Great game, great graphics, but the lousy AI and the micromangement make it painful to play sometimes, in my opinion.

Have you looked and seen if there are any already available tools to do so?

.FNT would seem like a font file, but not sure.

At one point in the past I opened one of the files and grab data on the research tree, such as how long each took to research, but that was years ago.

Good luck.

oh, I tested it again on what I said about the cheat/flaw
It works

Just add the shield that uses no power upto 4 full blue rounds and your undefetable.

When someone else is firing on you it does not consume power so you never run
out


OH, CAPITAL LETTERS....I KNOW...DONT WANT TO TYPE THIS ALL AGAIN

GREETZ !

Edit by punch- Rewrote whole post without all the caps

There is a nice key on your keyboard called Caps Lock - don't fear it. Even though it scared you the first (and appearantly only) time you clicked it... please click it again.

Thank you.
