Very Awesome, this mod is going to rock. And i think the players are going to use repair alot more with this experience system becouse how longer you can keep your ship healthy the stronger it gets.

will this be released in the patch project also can more than 4 ranks be added

EDIT
this may be a dumb question but where does the special energy bar go and does the rank appear in the single ship selection

fantastic work fellas, I am in awe yet again.

The methods used to implement the rank system supports a infinite number of ranks. Weather or not the rank system will be added to the patch project is not decided yet.

The energy bar is no longer displayed at your units in the battlefield. The Rank Icon will show up in single ship selection of course.

I like this. Now the "lowtech" ships won't be as useless late in the game as they were in vanilla A2. I imagine the Defiant especially will bring the pain to any hostile fleet.

BTW, in the first screenshot, what class is the rightmost ship? It looks awesome, like some sort of heavily armored battleship.

One word: WOW!!!

Really cool, if this is done right than this will give a whole new level of strategies into the game.

I'm really amazed by this.

Ausgezeichnet!

Muss aber fragen - diese Funktionalität wurde von Earth 2160 "inspiriert" oder?

I wonder how will behave borg ship in this new reality? Since this ships will be in few numbers, but very powerfull they will very fast become veteran ships. What I mean is that when You play with others races You have many ships and each of them gaines just a portion of veteran points, with the Borg it's different-all the point from all destroyed ships will go to only few ships, They will quickly become very powerful. What do You say guys?  :detective:

To me, the ship antagonist mentioned looks like a remodeled Phalanx Class.

Öhm...englisches Forum? Warum schreibst du nicht so, dass es auch jeder hier lesen kann? Nicht bös gemeint, BTW.


Translation:


Excellent!

I'll have to ask though, this range of functions was "inspired" by Earth 2160, right?

we have played a lot strategy games in the past including hegemonia, c&c series, homeworld series, the earth series and a lot more. i am a big fan of earth 2150 and preordered 2160 back then, however i was very disappointed with the gameplay and haven't played it much even with the latest patches...so no, it wasn't inspired from earth 2160. i'd guess the inspiration came from c&c red alert 2.

To me, the ship antagonist mentioned looks like a remodeled Phalanx Class.

it's actually the descent class. for those who haven't heard of her yet, i'd recommend To boldly go...

now a question. HOW?? is it a odf only mod? or what? and another question. if you have a fleet that kills say a borg cube will the whole fleet get Exp or the one that gave the final blow? so in other words do you get anything for assists?
for a mod for another game what they did was make a unit gain exp for doing damage and once the unit did x4 the amout of health that he has to a unit he levles up.

will level up just increase the stats or will it make the ship full health like some games
