I think too food would be required in too great quantities to be effectively transported between planets, at least in the DW model.

Hmm... While Tau definitely aren't ready to explore the galaxy, weren't Vespids advanced enough...? I'm not sure... Well, just a thought.

I never said it was wrong. [:)]

I want to be informed myself!

Sadly, 1400+ stars tend to crash the game.

From what I read around here, it's an issue with your hardware, but rather with the game engine itself.

No problem, the pic is obviously not mine. Sadly, the author is unknown to me.

Perhaps you could use this pic for the Securans somehow?

It's not green, but it screems Securan to me. (War paint maybe?)

(Attaching in z zip because lol, png not allowed. On a modding site. For a game that runs on pngs. Ingenious.)

Dude, you know how to create a hype.

<r> Hi Lazyzbox, congrats on undertaking this ambitious project.<br/>
<br/>
I am sort-of-making a MoO 2 mod; if you want to use any parts of it, feel free: <URL url="http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=3622126"><LINK_TEXT text="tm.asp?m=3622126">http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m ...

<t> Please increase the number of landscape images.<br/>
<br/>
Right now, the engine only allows 4 images per planet type. Considering there are millions of potential landscape pictures around the Internet, and the number of worlds in any given DW galaxy, why not allow any number of planet pics? I ...

<r> I've been a modder for many years, often spending more time modding a game than playing it. It's a hobby much like building model planes or writing RPG campaigns: a creative activity. And since <I><s>[i]</s>Distant Worlds<e>[/i]</e></I> are my kind of game, I naturally wanted to play with it a ...

I think it should be possible, since many of these are used for victory conditions and therefore are tracked.

All that need to be done is to make a GUI to display them.

<r> OK, a month has passed since I posted anything. The truth is, I'm not working on the mod at the moment, because:<br/>
1) I'm hoping of some sort of a semi-official megamod collection which seems to be a real possibility now. I want a generally agreed upon list of components, families, techs etc ...

Thank you. So that suggests for a one-off change that I should change the race file, then start a new game to lock in the modifier, and then change it back for future games?

I did think of one thing that would make it easier for modders who work with techs, components and resources.<br/>
<br/>
Right now the lists work like this<br/>
<br/>
129, missile tubes, yada yada, so on so forth<br/>
130, laser beams ...

Interesting. The only thing that looks jarring to me at first glance is using the Quarian portrait for Delphids; I think most people around here can recognize a Quarian. Not to mention we have the Mass Effect mod as well.

A question the 78 isn't your age - is it? I am 52 and thought I am already very old to play computer games - but I think I will still play at 80....should I make it...

Why can't the window height simply be adjustable by click-and-dragging the bottom edge up and down? Then everyone could have whatever they want.
