Also an "approved mod" is not the same thing. There are a lot of good mods that simply don't mix with the vanilla game, or are incompatible with other mods, etc... Ideally this list would be of mods where you can download them all and everything works. No issues, no incompatibilities, etc... For exa...

Sometime it would be nice to start a site dedicated to quality, bug and issue free mods that do nothing but enhance or expand upon the vanilla gameplay. That means only mods which are balanced, which add new missions, new items, new ships, etc... That way you could just go to the site, look through ...

Just thought I'd post some pics of my current progress on a mining station and support ships that I'm working on. This is the station: http://www.byond.com/members/Foomer/files/Aeonics/images/MiningStation2.jpg And this is a ship created to work as a support or escort ship. Its not exactly what I ha...

Don't know if its possible for the AI to check the blast radius of a target's explosion beforehand, but it would be nice if they at least had the sense to friggin stay away from things that are about to explode. It really took the coolness out of the Britannia mission when 4 out of 6 of my otherwise...

"This high-explosive upgrade increases the damage done by blast weapons." Why does this not work on a mark III howitzer which does blast damage? And shouldn't there be something specifying why it won't work or what it will work on? Its no fun trying to guess at which enhancers will work on which dev...

I think it would be nice if george would standardize a lot of these mods that are designed to allow for more customization.

Anything that allows for each ship to have customizable dock screens without having to override the entire dock screen system (meaning you can't have two ships that both do this) can be nothing but good.

I just had the annoying experience of realizing that EMP protection and device damage protection are NOT the same thing, which somehow just really irks me because I went and EMP-immunized all my armor in order to protect myself from the Ventari only to realize that the ion disruptors don't do EMP da...

I don't think you really need to hint that when your armor reaches zero, you die. But I believe we all agree that insta-death is bad. If they want to mess with your ship and break things, that's OK, but don't kill the player.

Here are some thoughts on managing cargo in Transcendence. I realize a lot of this isn't really doable since you can only have one cargo hold device at the moment, but if that were to change... Also, this keeps in mind that Transcendence does not have artificial gravity technology, so all the cargo ...

What about having Arco consistently drop a targeting rom? Seriously, having to play the game without them just because none of them randomly generated anywhere isn't very fun. I can't even target the center of a slaver camp in order to dock at it instead of docking at all the stupid cargo boxes.

What were the major hints that you gave?

Maybe its just me, but I'd rather not have people modding the game in ways they're not good at. If you can't do something well, don't release substandard mods. Do whatever you are capable of doing well, and ask for help to fill in the rest. If you can't do anything well, maybe modding isn't your thi...

Does that mean if I take Volkov back to Korolov and Rama back to the fortress that they'll repair, or does it just not work once they leave the system?

I thought in the latest version RC2 that wingmen would repair themselves at stations capable of doing so when they were sufficiently damaged? I have Rama at 57% damaged and Volkov at 95% damaged, but I can't get them to fix anything at any stations. Or was this only part of a mod and not in the vani...
