[video]http://youtu.be/1sWCfabCH1I[/video] Here is a video I made of a few of Rand Johnson's great and uber ST ships! Granted he has so many more, but theres a few issues with them working since the last patch, but these are the ones I have used so far. All the credit is his...I just get to play them and love it! Also, you may notice the Yor's not so secret Death Ray that is in the screen...I know its a trade route from

I was able to build it on 2 planets because I had it qued before the first finished it. Once it was finished, it became not available to be built anywhere else, though the 2nd planet still had and finished it, but got nothing from it...will delete it since its taking up a slot. Looks like its a 1 wonder/empire thing, but theres a few things off on the execution of that.

Was building this and the text reads "Increases the hull capacity of ships manufactured on this planet." But ships arent built on the planet anymore, but by Space docks that the planet lends support to...heck multiple planets as well. So, does this mean: 1-that it actually increases the ships hull at the space dock that it supports? 2-Does that mean if this is built on multiple planets, that you could then get 2,3,4 times the amount if you have one on each planet s

Very awesome job Hamilmac!!! And Rand..dont knock what you have done either...no one should. Your ST ships are awesome and what I use every game(well the ones that I can get to work since the new patch haha). You are all very talented and should be proud of what you have made!!

I dont find that surprising...considering that the Drengin are concerned more about war and conquering then focusing on economy and wealth...it seems to be a correct way for such a war like species. While the Terrans are concerned with wealth and research and only fight when they have to...to me this seems right and when the 2 collide...well i think the results speak for themselves. Granted I dont know all the specs, but are you really wanting to make the Drengin make other things

Very, very nice...love the look of them all. Funny too, because the smaller ships remind me of the dropship in Aliens and the bigger ones, remind me of the Sulaco from Aliens. I think one adjustment would be color...I mean some type of Black would be awesome haha. Love the carrier with the bay doors opening and the fighters on the outside. NICE!!

Amazing the difference it makes...I also have a star with 4 planets(2 dead 2 lvl 8s) and 2 of the Promotheian planet/mineral as well around the same star...was like whoa. Then a Black hole is nearby, and I play with those on rare, so for me it was like wow...what an amazing sight!! Also, has anyone ever zoomed in on a black hole...lol it sounds like the scream of the damned in hell...try it...I was like WTF!!?? Hahaha.

I know there is repair stuff in the tech trees. Also, my ship heals pretty good just moving. I think on my custom race I had picked slow repair so thats why they took so long...haha.

Repairing is very slow...and worse if you make a custom and make that trait even worse!! I had a big fight with pirates and my ship won it with 1hp...at 1hp/turn back it took 63 turns to be fully healed..ok well 62. I docked it at a planet and the shipyard, it all healed the same. This is something they will need to work on.

Im using some great ST ships from Rand Johnson and having issues deleting them. This sounds easy right? Hmm...not so much. I clean out both design folders(in my games and my steam folder) and delete them out. This didnt work, because when i started the game...it put them right back into my games designs. So i completely uninstall the game and as far as I could tell...everything was gone. Install it again...start the game up again...and yes...you guessed it.

Ya it was crazy...all those stars...not a single planet at all. I mean nada...i dont care if they are dead, low habitation or extreme, but there should be something!! On common you get that...not sure why it doesnt work on the higher setting, but I hope it something they can fix. As for now, the Common setting does work and i use it on planets, and artifacts, which were also missing for me.

Ok thanks Publius! Ill check that and also see what numbers they are using in the XML! And you are welcome Island Dog...hate even mentioning anything at times, but for me this was getting to the point of frustrating and I know you guys like feedback!

First, Id like to say that I think this is going in the right direction. Its amazing to see how this is changing. Im a fanboy, so no reason to keep gushing on about you guys so ill get down to what this is really about... Stars, planets, and Ships. I like to play with lots of stars in my game and while I know I dont expect every star to have 9 planets, SOME planets would be nice. I have chosen abundant for everything, and still dont see
