Birth of the Federation

Yeah, chose not to build a ship on that turn from that particular star system... 30 turns on. Klingon are my ally and all is well with the universe. Im just gonna cross my fingers and hope for the best.

Thanks for your responce. Appreciated.

Hello all Ok, Short story. Running my own mod. 4 successful play-throughs. On the 5th at turn 35 to 36 there is a CTD and no crash log data. Now... what causes it. A ship is built out of a star system about to be attacked by a Klingon fleet. If i build this ship on turn 34 the game will crash on pro...

Ok, thank you.

I have added this to my mod. works like a charn. My question. Is there a version of this that works with minor races on them becoming a member of your faction?

UPDATE: I doubled the maintenance and build cost of all starships and starbases. Removed the bugged income bonus building (-_-). Reduced the number of stellar objects by 25%. My turn time dropped from 3-4 minutes on a normal difficulty playthrough to 1-2 minutes... not a bad improvement. In hindsigh...

UPDATE: I have my home worlds typical starship training structure and in addition to that i have my new starship training structure. +50 and +15. one turn of training and from 0 a ship went to 65. So it wont cause a bug but may cause side effects of slightly higher levels of trained crews whenever y...

ok, thank you :-)

Hello all, Im using UE currently and have set the maximum minor races for the 'MANY' options to 30 ( i have 30 minor races within my mod) but only 21-24 minor races are on the map. On a large irregular map i never see 25 or more. Is there a way to guarantee a high number... 28+? Thank you for your t...

Thanks for the info :-)

Hello all, i hope you are all fine. Anyway, i find that the AI rarely ever builds starbases... knowing that in my mod starbases act alot like the starbases in that episode of DS9 where its the station against the entire klingon fleet. i do value a good ole starbase. So, what i did was remove outpost...

Anyone tried it? my reasoning... i hate when i cant increase starship experience when outside of my home system of special minor race systems so i thought... Perhaps... Have a lesser version of say 10-15% whilst my ships are stationed over any planet if i cant afford to station them over a training ...

ok. im going to try and keep the large map sizes for as long as possible... its an ego thing. Fewer systems, is it just colonizable systems or things like wormholes, nebulas and neutrons aswel? atm i have 200ish stellar objects... reducing that to 100ish will be my next gamble with that. Lower Gener...

Hello all, I have been building a BOTF mod for quiet some time. I believe i have finally reached a point where i can just say its ok to play. Naturally i play tested it. By turn 90 my turn times are around 30-45 seconds. By turn 125 my turn times are around 3-4 minutes and by turn 140-150 my turn ti...

Ok, so i backed up my files and copied over both stbof.res and trek.exe from the vanilla sto folder(installed via the All-in-One installer. I also changed the hex code from BOTF to my mods version (TBM2). The game loads and generates the galaxy allowing me to play a game via both directly running th...
