Leaving information out? - AeternusDoleo - 12-13-2010
' Wrote:And I don't have access to all the information of the game in which the creator does. I can't magically obtain every single ship's engine and power generator to add to all pages. I would have to go buy every single ship in the entire game just to find that out.Or pull the data from the ini files which are present in the module. From memory: Shiparch.ini, loadout.ini and the various specific equipment ini's for engine and generator. Yes, it takes effort, but the design team doesn't have access to this info any easier then this either.
Kind of a "do it or don't whine about it". Generator stats are not relevant, ships have their core capacity and regeneration rate listed in the details. Engine isn't relevant either - impulse and cruise speed are both listed. Perhaps not in the overview tables, but this info is listed once you open up ship details. In general these have the following values:
Fighters: Max thruster speed 200, cruise 350
Gunboats: Max thruster speed 150, cruise 350
Transports and Liners: Max thruster speed 140, cruise 350
Cruisers: Max thruster speed 140, cruise 350
Battleships: Thrusters not available, max impulse speed 80, cruise 350.
The only exception that comes to mind is the barge, which is much slower, both on impulse and in cruise.

' Wrote:1. It's already a buffed out ship.Wrong. I tried the Thor ship without the admin upgrades such as admin shield. It's far from invinsible. A normal nomad fighter did large damage to me with standard non-admin equipment. Sure I could still kick ass but it's not indestructible unless you add Admin Shields and Indestructible Armor. (2 items I believe I saw already). Only an admin who is a jerk would use his invincibility to kill people for fun so for number 4 I say you are a dick if you do that when your an admin. :P
2. Admin ships are practically indestructible, whether the admin be in this thing or a starflie.
3. Admins can already do whatever they want.
4. Weaknesses or no weaknesses, if an admin is in it, you're dead.
Besides the point this whole ship thing is out of topic, My suggestion is to add engines and power generators to the list on all ships. At the very least added during the next update for Discovery since there will be new data added anyway.
Oh and sorry I did not see the new post. Anyway just forget about it. I guess if no one is going to do anything then fine. I'll just have to continue doing things the pain in the ass way.

That's because there's a player flying an SRP'd Thor Mk II.
Anyhow, stop bashing the guy. It's his mod install and his server, I see no reason not to let him do what he wants.
I think the main reason a lot of that info isn't on the wiki though is because people are lazy.

Oh and admins don't kill people for fun btw.

Nevermind.
