I know I get really irritated when I am flying a rebel ship and come up against X-Wings:)

So... how about if you split your mod into TWO mods.

Star Wars: Rebel Alliance, where you play as a rebel ship and the AI only generates Imperial ships, and Star Wars: Imperial Might (or something like that) where you play as an Imperial ship and the AI only generates Rebel ships.

And then you only made rebel drones available to the AI in Imperial Might so that as an Imperial you never fight AGAINST TIE fighters and as a Rebel you never fight against B-Wings.

That is doable, right?


That is possible. It would take a little bit of re-coding, but yes, it could work.

Once again, you need a Stealth ship.

The stealth ships are on their way. Just sit tight and wait a bit longer! It shouldn't be too long...

Hey SW,

Okay, did two rough Mon Cals... which one's style do you prefer?

Image

Or...

Image

Mon Cal is sort of an ugly, hard to replicate ship...

Lemme know!

BTW, any ship I make will be just about the exact size of the ones that they are replacing, so no need to worry about anything else...

I'm going to do the Rebel ships first I think.

The second one is purdy. The first... not so much. :)

Yeah, although as crazy as it sounds the first one looks more like a real Mon Cal!

Here is the other Mon Cal in that second style...

Okay, can I ask... what do people think of these drones?

Do you like the single big ship...

Image

Or the several smaller ships?

Okay, another sample of the small, multiple ships... they move a little funny, but it is still, I think, pretty cool. Would love to see eight "drones" on screen at once!:)

Also... what about the A-Wings facing the same direction the ship is going? It will mean they are facing to the right, instead of up-and-down on the buy screen, but is that an acceptable trade for them looking the right way in a fight? I mean... you see them in a battle a LOT more than on the inventory screen, right? Thoughts?
