YES! Better stealth! They will never see me, muahaha!

And i see the zenox-shields again. I hope they are really better as the vanilla because... they are not so good as they should for my taste. I love fortress stations with hugh amount of shields.[:D]

Edit: Oh... wait... what? Gungan shields?[:D] And slipstream warp things?[:D]

Yeah, Gungan. You like? [:D]

BTW, I wasn't quite happy with the shields, so I reworked them again.

Here's the result:

Looks good.[:)] I would be so happy to lay my fingers on it.[:(] I need hugh motivation to play the game without an research mod and there is no good research mods out there that works with the game right now.[:D]

Hm exists an relativ plan for release or purly "it's done when its done?"*blink blink*[:'(]

Edit: Oh and with the gungan shields, dont know, at least i have no idea what they are as an shield typ but i'm looking forward to it.[:)]If they are good or are for somewhat functional i use them, if not i dont use them.[:D]

Yup, it's done when it's done. I only planned a rough framework and fill it up now as I work through the tree. That and my sparse free time make it impossible to set a fixed release date. It's more than half done, so it won't be a matter of months. [:'(]

I sto... borrowed those from Star Wars. I actually borrowed tons of stuff from tons of SF movies, series and games. [:D]

No. There actually will be no unification tech whatsoever in Research Reloaded. They narrow down diversity, so I decided to get rid of them entirely.

Are you familiar with the X3 series? The names are very good (Concussion Impulse Generator, Hammerhead Heavy Torpedo, Cluster Flak Array, EnergyBolt Chain-gun... and so on) I name my ship designs after the ships from X3. Anyway, it seems like you are not lacking of inspiration. Looking forward to you mod! If you're interested I probably have a list somewhere with weapon stats and all.

I have played Elite and Elite:Frontier, but for some unknown reason I never tried their unofficial successor X. Yeah, I'm not lacking inspiration, but even more never hurts. I'm sure interested in your list.

I spend way to much time with that game. I guess that will do as well PsyKoSnake. Who knows, maybe we find a Electro-magnetic plasma cannon in DW:U one day ;)

No.

If I did add such super tech everyone and his dog would use it. Boring. I rather add a broader selection to choose from.
