Hmmm sounds like an interesting thing they could do with these ships.. Like tie the ships in with disasters.. Like if you send Science type ship to a disaster you have a higer chance of fixing it or curing it faster.

<r> Optimally, a "perfect" system would have a random portrait generator giving us unlimited options. This obviously isn't the case.<br/>
<br/>
Personally, I think a good solution would be to code the current portrait generator to randomly select an unused picture that was available in something ...

Yes maybe once the release craziness of Legends calms down, we can corner Elliot into giving us more on our list of requests. <B><s>[b]</s>I think with more support for mods we can help take DW to a whole other level<e>[/b]</e></B>.

<t> I've only seen one fleet of legendary pirates and they swarmed through my neighbor's system and then into mine. The ALMOST killed my President (doing a tour of a starbase), lost two starbases, I barely managed to defeat them, and we all took heavy losses. Certainly changed up my game (which was ...

I don't think those pilots would remain very consistent. They seem to get vaporized a bit...

I've only seen one reported Silvermist in my galaxy/game. Luckily, its kinda distant from everyone but still near my borders. Should I be concerned?

I see some Star Wars Rebellion portriats in there. EXCELLENT!

Always admired that art style...

<r> You doing that with a Star Trek theme or just sci-fi? Looking forward to seeing what you develop <E>:)</E><br/>
<br/>
Also, I'm having trouble with the "appearance order" (as in when they will appear). It certainly implements the first or starting characters but beyond that I haven't seen them ...

<t> I don't really have any economic crisis, however, I also usually play a peaceful, diplomatic, research oriented democracy. I do play on normal difficulty with much slower research (also more expensive) and find that helps to balance it. If I want to rush some R&D projects my economy usually will ...

<r> So, I've got the character portrait working for a customized specific character (set in the "Character/Humans.txt"). You need to place the image into a CharacterImages folder in your mod (or your main directory, under units). I used a captured portrait I got from my short time playing Eve Online ...

<r> Even just having a variety of pictures for the game to pick from would be sufficient. I just HATE having everyone look exactly the same, I can always modify their names to make it work. But like you guys said, the problem will be if we can or cannot change the "class" of the pictures.<br/>

Thanks for the support for the mod guys, of course this is more than likely the end of the mod now, as it has become part of the game. Also, for those who enjoyed the mod you will be happy to know that where I could (time allowing) I have ...

<t> hehe, I've spent all day messing with the characters and wondering what is possible. I'm going to do some tests and see how the system works. I'm hoping we can assign character images (via the characters folder) and also generate characters (via the characterimages folder).<br/>
<br/>
I don't ...

Looks great!

<r> So, Legends now allows us to have leaders, admirals, ambassadors, scientists, generals, and spies and, best of all, we can have character graphics. By default the game uses the race default graphic, however, I've been wondering if we can't have customized graphics so I did some digging. In the ...

I believe it's an overall improvement in your foreign relations. For example, I leave my best ambassador (+55% diplomacy) with a race and, in time, they're giving me money and offering treaties. I think they just generally improve relations and, probably, decrease xenophobia.

Drag your mouse over the trait or character and it should explain what it does. But I think it covers things like deep cover operations and overall effectiveness.

<r> I just want to chime in on 3D. I think 3D is overused in modern computer games. Some of the best and most deep strategy and RPG games were only 2D and they were so great because of what 2D provides. Making a game in 2D reduces strain on the developer because instead of focusing on a 3 ...

Not cool, not cool.
