is it possible to mod out either the resource requirements or the money requirements to make building ships a little easier? or is it hard coded?

Please ask modding-related questions in the Scripts and Modding forum.

just down loaded it lookimg forward to playing the mission cheers

Does M3+ available after Bala Gi or can be at any time?

I ask because I experiment what related below on my plot game:

I received the invite to start the Bala Gi but I was on the path to make the survey mission on the Yaki sector. I did the Yaki mission and now Paranid are not my best friend I did also the Don's daughter rescue mission before I notice Eclipse was available in Argon Prime for the M1 rank (I don't have).
More, I was visiting Farnham Legend after the daughter had tell me to wait for her when I encounter a Split weapon trader flying on an Eclipe. I engaged him after he goes red because he did not like I scan its cargo and I manage to capture it. So I fly in an Eclipse but I never did the Bala Gi mission!
BTW, all M3+ are available in good shipyard.


Info: I started the game 3 weeks ago directly with CD + patch to 2.0.02 + bonus pack 3.1.06. I never dock to the station were I was invited to do in the message only one my mk3 trader did because it was badly hurt by pirates in the nearby sectors but I had visit the sector.

After reading forums, I think I benefit of a game bug, don't you? Did others have notice same behavior?

Eclipse is available before the Bala Gi missions start, both to you and NPCs, and the LX will also appear right from the beginning of the game. Medusa and Chimera shouldn't be--are you saying you can buy those before doing Bala Gi?

Sorry, I was mean it is because I was sure to have seen the Chimera but I check my game and don't found it again. Perhaps, I had not look to carrefully.

I'm glad to see it's normal to meet Eclipse but I was sure to not seen them sold at Argon Prime before the message bumped. Now, I'm not sure at all.

I don't rememeber seeing the Eclipse or any of the other M3+ ship until I got the Mission in the Unknown Sector.

how long is this mission after you find the first ?? it just seems to keep dragging on and on (prbably because i had to fight through 50 xenon squads just to get to the guy who tells you where to find the BPs

the eclipse i have seen in first 3 hours which i then preceded to cap so i now start of doing 3 rd mission onwards in an eclipse in extreme

not done this mission as of yet looking forward 2 it

I gather you need a sizeable force to complete the BG missions? I shot around in a fast m5 and found what I needed to, but to get back out with baggage would be impossible! Do i need to bring a stronger fleet? (Think I answered my own Q! )

You shouldn't need a sizeable fleet, realistically--unless a lot of pirates happen to have spawned in Maelstrom in your game, that is. I've done this mission several times and the main opposition was the scripted opposition, which isn't that hard to take out so long as you're in at least an M3.

i went straight into extreme mode and i had a lot of khak and pirates on my way back i used the abandond m3 and used a teleporter in this and an exlipse i capped any like nova ect would do then when pirates show up transport into fighter take em out then transport back and carry on towing made it VERY easy.

anyone knows if it's possible to move a station from one sector to another using the tractor beam ?

No, it is not possible to move stations between sectors.

it's great. i really like owning the player HQ.

Generally your UTs wouldn't go into such a sector unless they were (a) below level 12 and thus not using their jumpdrives or (b) they ran into problems trading in, say, Scale Plate Green, and jumped to escape to Eighteen Billion--they always fly through normal jumpgates back to their original sector when they do this, and guess which sector is right inbetween those two?

but dont your traders not venture into enemy sectors no matter what?
ie set Argon to enemies in their comands and they wont go there
or are UTs really that stupid????

Yes, they are.

Various scripts can make them less stupid though.

I was wondring, can enyone tell me what are the conditions for the Bala Gi Research Missions to kick in? thanks a lot, sorry for the disturbance
