[XTM - GAMEPLAY] Gameplay discussion for Xtended Mod

[Nanook]

I am thinking of taking over many of the pirate sectors next to the Argon main sectors. In particular Bala Gi's Joy, and Olmancketslat's Treaty.
The only problem is in those sectors are a few stations that seem to belong to other races. In particular the 'Teladi Syndicate Shipyards' which pump out annoying pirate ships.

I want to destroy all these stations. Will I get the nasty race rep drops, particularly with the Teladi, for doing so?

You want to destroy the Syndicate Shipyard??? You do know that you can buy all those nice, nasty pirate ships from there, don't you? And the higher your combat rank, the more ships they offer, all they way up to the awesome Galleon.

And yes, you'll suffer significant race rep drop for destroying a station claimed by them.

gee...make sure im not around or ill pound ya for scratchin my ships paint job...lol...yea if u blow the station you can say "good bye rep"...

[Gammel]

Gee, looks like my post/thread got moved....twice.
Sorry for sticking it in the wrong place.


Hrmmm, if I'm going to lose race rep for blowing up those stations, then its going to be a real pain getting rid of the pirates. And yeah I know what those stations sell, but Id rather not have any dealings with the pirates, regardless how good their ships are.
Its a matter of principle.

sorry for my bad english, but is there an excel document giving all the characteristics of the new ships and weapons?

Something like this ?

where can i find the sector called "Final frontier" or something along thoughs lines. thats where the giant shiny sphere of death is on my game

[Dark Tech]

Well I'm finding this impossible. Got to tow the yacht but maelstrom has atound 79 pirate ships M2s x 6 for example. Is it impossible or am I doing something wrong here??

I've finally found some time to try out the mod. Looks good.

A few questions:

1. Has anyone tested compatability with the guilds scripts by cycrow yet?
2. I also don't see CMP on the list.
3. Can you point me in the direction of where to look for the new plot as I haven't found it yet?
4. I initially started a new game but if I dig out a save for a plain vanilla game just after the plot is completed will it work with XTM?

1 there's a script compatability list on TheXUniverse.com
2 CMP? or EMP? EMP is included
3 Start by looking a teladi station BBS messages
4 Apparently yes, but you don't get the new sectors (& all ships?),
ie restart required, but some of custom starts are quite 'compensatory'

You could use this

1. I saw the list but didn't see it on it.
2. Oops, yes EMP. I already had it installed but I didn't get any complaints so I guess it is OK anyway.
3&4. Thx.

[darkelfsin]

Hi i have just bought my nice new shinny ollerus. Iam having a bit of troublr using the jumgate thing how do you use it?

[Adlantis]

Hi i have just bought my nice new shinny ollerus. Iam having a bit of troublr using the jumgate thing how do you use it?

You need two of them. One in each sector you want to connect. Then you have to use a special command (I think it's something like "Deploy Jumpgate") and then you have to select the other Ollerus.

Just wodnering what would be a good sector to start in for a a economic enthusiast?

[Axeface]

I have a question! I would like to add the Serenity ship to my XTM game, could someone explain if this is possible? And how to do it?

[philip_hughes]

I have another question: Does anyone know the power of otis shields? All i know is that pirate novas fitted with them can take a massive pounding, and my custodian uses them and is nearly invincible. It can absorb a HUGE amount of punishment and recharge.

[Williamm]

I tryed using this in the new XTM mod but most of the comands don't work. Like placing ships. Some of the commands do work like taking money away from you. Am I doing somthing wrong?

I have yet to try them, but you could try highlighting a ship fitted with them in the sector map. The top bar of the map then gives you the numerical value of hull, laser energy and shields. Doesn't tell you the recharge though.
