Umm.. I think the zip is empty.

Really? It worked for me. Did you try downloading it again?

Thread thief :P

I'll give your mod a shot soon :roll:

I still want a plain, simple quickplay style mode (or mod), where you pick your ship from the list of starting ships, and you enter a system with nothing special but progressively more difficult nme spawns at set intervals. I might just have to make my own...

I've noticed the 'random arena' at 1st seems to spawn enemies completely randomly, but it may actually be spawning in order of the shipclass ID numbers or some algorithm based on them. I'm sure the 'N' key spawns by shipclass ID.

Sorry about that. It never struck me that i was hijacking the thread.

On that note, further updates of BattleZone will be posted here

That is what this mod was built to provide. It was actually your original post that got me started building it. The only reason the system is not *completely* bare is so that you actually stand a chance playing with a non god-modded ship.

Under all circumstances, I would like to see your take on it.

Hope you enjoy it though .]

You asked for it, so I'll try it, but I warn you, I've done professional testing and bughunting before, you might get more feedback than you were expecting. :twisted:

I promise to be fair, so no worries, eh?

Sounds cool, look forward for some feedback. Just remember to take into account that it went through 2 versions in <2 days, and I am currently rebuilding it to be more modular. I will definitely put more effort into it this time :)
