In Fleet Operations v3 you will no longer be able to build up complete Alien bases once you captured a hostile construction ship. No Romulan would sit willingly on a Klingon bridge. But in exchange you can get a few unique refits of your vessels with alien technology and other improvements. To read more details about Mixed-Tech and Technology trade see this older news post.

You guys are just amazing 
Sounds great to me, especially the Borg-features! I can't wait to see all of this ingame!

ahhh ha ha ha. Awesomeness thy name is Fleet ops

Great to see the Miranda included in Flops too

Question though: will these mixed tech options be available to you if your allies are another race?
ie you gain the klingon bonus if your ally is klingon, or do you have to go capture it/swap units?

Yep There is a special option called technology trade for multiplayer to allow to share the mixed-tech features with your ally. details on this are described in the older Mixed Tech article linked above

lol, sure you can "trade" with enemies, lol if you include commandeering an enemy construction ship and booking it back to your base, as "trading".
2nd question i dont understand the way you wrote dude

one question i dont think has been asked yet is can you obtain different bonuses at the same time? (ie feds gaining both rommie and klingon mixed tech)

oh god this mod just keeps on getting better and better, definatly better than any RTS out at the moment IMO

the bonuses are not applied automatically to all starships. that would lead to to heavy influence. you can build an experimental yard from mixed tech where you can get the modified refits. a unit can only have one upgrade set (either avatar boni or one mixed tech refit, not multiple races or avatar boni and mixed tech) otherwise it would be quite hard to balance the powers of the boni

If you edit the sores code a bit more you will have your own game..... wont you? if you change the UI a bit more and some basic old A2 consepts you wont have to worry ab out copy right.

Who cares about source-code?  I think it already is a game and not only a mod. 

(By the way: Welcome back, ewm!)

ok so dose this mean that if you capture a rom builder you can build rom tech as well as this mixed or just mixed or what if you can only build mixed for the  they should be able to use it all haha
