Birth of the Federation

Wow, very nice! Working very good, no mouse lag. Could get it to work with UDM3, but not UDM5 though. Did I install it wrong, or is it not designed for UDM5? Cheers! I don't think they did MPR++ for UDM5; but there's another fix for win8 mouse lag that works with any mod: https://www.armadafleetcom...

it's just star trek bla, bla, bla; but you got the jest; there is some truth in it; more ships always work better than less.

I don't have experience with the Galaxy mod, but i tried having shipyards only in dilithium system in UDMdc; it did not work well for the human player; the AI still had lots of ships while many of my systems were idle not being able to build ships. Even increasing the dilithium chance from 10 to 20%...

i got something similar to your picture, when i set the long range to 11; since then i backed up to 10 and all it's fine again; i was even able to use the save game.

Stupid question... Noob here. How does one edit ships so they can be available at certain tech levels without replacing other ships? Also how does one fix ships so they will display in the shipbuilding tab at final tech level? It doesn't seem to be editable in UE. Or is the Ships Overview table imp...

Used it over the weekend in the 4+8=12 version on 800X640; no issues; awesome addition!

If I could, i would make the nebulae give a -500 or so to scanning strength; every nebula i've seen on tv is a hiding place. You could even bump into each other and start a battle without seeing the opposing force. Maybe use one of Flocke's initial sky-boxes to make it difficult to spot ships .

Also, adi, I believe this patch also PREVENTS the AI from forming fleets. So there would not be AI fleets, but only single ships flying around... Correct, so i am keeping my eyes out for longer than usual turns; although it would be a wild guess since we can not compare apples to apples. @TC; i don...

Thanks guys for this patch; and thank you QD! i'll give it a try for sure. Just in case it does not work for me, since it does not uninstall, all i need is to backup my trek.exe, right? I have a suspicion that part of the turn time, is due to large AI fleets, the not grouped ones; i'm thinking the A...

I have no proof nor have I tested any, but I wonder if the longer you have them powered the more effective them become? SCT posted about intel if unused will store intel point (until needed) and is more effective when used. thunderchero Yeah, i read about the intel buffer build-up; could be the sam...

this all depends on attacking fleet 1 orbital may be enough. but if you are being attacked by 100's of ships you would need 100's of orbitals thunderchero you would think so but it is way more funky, or fuzzy, or something else... I had the Orions membered; Klingons attacked with maybe 25-30 ships;...

I think most of the turn time is related to the ship size; it has to decide where to move them; and if they are grouped as 9, a group might take as along to process as one ship.

thanks for the link guys; a real treat

you pretty much summed it up. people on the forum would recommend PvP; but against the AI you would need to edit stats with UE. Some ideas i had over the years: - for fleet recovery, since the AI needs to recover, i'd suggest high maintenance cost and low build cost for the ships; that way your flee...

man, never thought of scraping a star base; one can exploit this to easy money; one TT and build time for a big payoff; the mod i'm playing i think gives 50% production cost back when scraping.
