Decleration of Concept and Intent - Gamazson - 11-09-2007
Disco community run and scream in absolute fear. I shave started down the path of learning how to mod systems. (If Dabs head explodes you will all know why. I will been pestering him with noob questions)
It is my intention to develop so more community usable systems (I.e. Systems like Newcastle or O-47). I have some ideas of what I want to eventually have done for review for 4.85 five or six months from now.
CONCEPT #1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYSTEM: Inverness
Does everybody remember my Tortuga idea from a month or so ago? Well I haven't abandoned it. My vision has changed a little bit however. Those of you who are avid SW know of Nar Shada. Also called the smugglers moon. I think this is neat concept that can be given a freelancer spin. (I.e. it will not be called Nar Shadda, or make any other SW reference hence forth)
My goal for this system is to have one large planet (Probably gas giant) orbited by a few small moons. One will be dockable and themed in a pirate faction. Since the Inverness system lies dead along the main cardi smuggling path, I believe that a small moon being settled by a bunch of unlawfuls is very probable.
The finished system will include a couple of other NPC faction controlled bases to spice up the system flavour a bit. Right now the plan is one Freeport (To be named / #), an IMG outpost, and a Junker owned and operated ship yard.
As for environment the plan is for two ice asteroid fields / nebula's to reflect the systems position within the barrier and one junk field in an area that I hope to make a ship graveyard.
I have a second concept as well but i do not have time to finish writing it right now. I will add it later tonight when I get back from work. I will warn that it will be a tad far flung and require me to enlist the aid of others to fully complete.

Sounds good, Hobby, but I'd advise you to think about what you're committing to here...I've looked at the tutorials and good God is that a heavy Instruction Book... Dab tells me sixty hours a project is a light load...

hmmm might be interesting, would be nice to have more systems that are usable by everybody (well, almost everybody)

My only problem with this: you spelled "declaration" wrong:)
I'm glad you're doing it and not me. Photoshop is enough for me to wrap my brain around for right now. One request - can you make a red system? we've got pink, we've got tons of greens and blues, but no reds.

As I remember you can't change the baclground color of a system, sadly...I think you'd have to custom-make a background, to boot, and I don't think anybody here knows how to do that, 'cept maybe Dab and Igiss...Don't give Hobby too much to work towards...

To give the moon or planet the best feeling it should use the Pitsburgh surface. A very few unlawfuls have settled on a litle part of this unfriendly moon maybe to mine Plutonium. A dark and dusty world, because of many volcano activities. After years the small population has grown a bit and some traders have founded bases for their operations in the independent worlds.

This idea has promise.

I thought new dockable planets(or moons) in user made systems where not allowed. Am I incorrect? Thought it was in the "System Submission Guidelines"... *checks the thead* Ya, here;
<strike>
"What MUST NOT be added to a faction system:
1) New suns.
2) Populated planets
..."</strike>
It could just be a outpost orbiting the moon.
Other then that detail, I love the concept. I liked the original one as well. Oh, and good luck! :)

Edit: D'OH!! I am an idiot, in the post itself it says "Faction system"! NVM! :$

Excellent! More systems to explore! I like the concept, Nexus; smugglers need some lovin', too. =P Best of luck, though...if it's as hard as everyone says it is. Yowch!
