ok. i just wanted to know if upgrades can be made to ships, say if i liked skyhoppers but didnt think they were fast enough could i have one made with twin engines? i know you cant just make up new ships but i dont think upgrading would be the same.
ps, sorry if someone esle asked this. i did look in the past post for the answer and didnt find it and i did ask around the TF forum. thanks for your time
Possibly/probab, depending on how badly one of hte devs answered my question about it. I think it will be possible, but most likely there will be some form of restriction based on their current stats.
SO you may be able to add say 10% shield power to your ship say, but not increase it by 100 fold.
i would just like to see upgades possible. i think progress is a process. and i figur that if you make a ship fast you would also have to make its weigh less and the same with things like firepower and shields and how many people it can carry. things like that. i mean i would love to see what a tie fighter with an extra engine could do
All these R&D questions will most likely be cleared up when R&D gets finalized. Once the admins get it worked up, they'll inform everyone through the Sim News about the when where and how of everything. Just wait.
Actually I was told there was a distinction between altering stats (Entity Modification) and R&D (discovering new entities). Either way they are down the road a ways so just be patient like everyone else has been.
