Ship size capped?

[Tyranicus]

Is there a way to up the max ship from 1500 to anything higher?

Not sure if it's feasible to do so as such big ships could become mostly engines. As to a way to do so I don't think there's one atm.

You mean...
You cannot mean...
It is not possible...

You mean: no DEATH STAR?

Only death among the stars [:)]

Dang cause my cap ships are bout 1700 to 1800 and my personal flagship is bout 2700.

Can you post a screenshoot with their designs? I'd love to see their specs.

[Tyranicus]

Sure let me try to get a screen shot in

awsome, those things are terminators....galaxy terminators
I remember there were some ways to bypass the cap but I'm not sure now. How did you come to have them? Even if you find a ship that's beyond the cap you can't modify it and these look like you built them....but then the cap should apply once more.
I'll search the forum a bit to see if I can get the old threads on this.

[Tyranicus]

I built it and put it in the game thru the editor.

Aaa, that would explain it. There was an old issue where you can design a "base" to actually be a ship...since planet side bases can be of any size you'd effectively bypass the ship size cap.
But I've already doublechecked your screenshots and this was not the case.

[Tyranicus]

Its a pretty effective ship but maintance is high.

Good grief, he has got weapons on this beast that I have not survived long enough to even see...
There is more in IGard's cargo bay than I ever imagined... [:D]

Remember TJ, Igard has you on camera from the last time you were in his Cargo Bay! [:-]

And I thought I overdid it with 1000 size cap ships. [X(]

The AI, not being able to match those massive designs becomes far too easy when you build ships that big. And unless we get a way to put in our own ship designs as templates for the AI, building anything too big is just overkill and puts the game into super easy mode. [:(]

I say....just nuke 'em from orbit. Only way to be sure!

Hey! That's my line! [:D]

I think it rubs off
