Hello everyone. Not the competitive sort, I play for my own enjoyment and have used signed and unsigned scripts. Have had to reinstall the game several times, heh.heh...(nooby for sure) Never was able to get the F.A.T.E. script to work...One cheat I would like to pass on though,(hav'nt read of it from anyone else and am surprised.) using the Basic ship upgrade script from XSCiPTiNG.com, After Elena Kho gives me the beat up mercury I change to it and have my M-5 follow me to Argon prime, use the editor, basic ship upgrade,r,null(enter), then dock at the wharf and sell it for 1200,000,000. credits, buy a ship and sell yourM-5 and bam! now you have 2,000,000,000.(must be the game credit limit, can't go over tho thousand million...). I assume this to be a bug in the script and hope it's not just my computer.(Toshiba A-75)... I doubt a hardcore player would want this cheat, I'll probably replay with just the signed plugin's, but its fun to be able to learn and map out the game with unlimited funds.... 8)

Two billion is not really unlimited. You'd be surprised how quickly it runs out!

Mostly i use signed scripts. But if i see an unsighned script that i think will enhance the game without being a blatent cheat i often try them out.

I recently made a simple mod to script me in 1 500 000 credits
because a transporter was killed by my station ... :roll:

it is a known fact that stations are very aggressive :lol:

PS: if someone would say that things like that happen in real life
I completely agree, but not for a 75MW protected ship
(who the hell is the pilot or AI that will not stop after a bump into something thinking what to do to not repeat the same thing ?)

I have close to 40 factories (mostly SPP, a few crystal fabs and even less silicon mines), I have Centaurs on defense everywhere, over 200 mill in the bank and I'm Ace of Aces 2nd grade. Whenever I reach a beyond the level where I can get the biggest M2 ship (I already have one Ody and one Phoenix), I allow myself the priviledge to drive the ship that I think is really beyond all M2 ships: an Osprey with around 400 in speed and great rudder control. Why? I like to dog fight. I hate turret-only ships (i.e. M2s). Can't run "acrobatically"after ships (your more like a thrown brick), can't shoot with your mouse button. Yuck. This is why I use only one signed script, Babyface's Engine Speed & Rudder Optimization Pack and I use it only on my Osprey.

I really think there was a need for a dog fighting top ship that can catch up with Xenon Ks

this ship is called a perseus
well ... at least without the gunnery crews (never tested with them)

I am only using the signed scripts, except for the (ASEWS) Advanced Satellite - Early Warning System. I am planning to build factories in PE and I want to known how safe or dangerous that sector really is.

Interested in your script modifications that help you.

DenYaSis,
I am new here and I read your post about the script modifications that you use in your game that help give you power in your game. I am interested in scripts that will help increase my credits so I can buy more upgrades and make my ship faster and more manuverable in space. Would you be interested in sharing with me?

Your English seems kinda weird.... Is it your second language or something? Anyway, I'd recommend capturing Khaak if you want lots of money quickly.

i use everything that sounds interesting, because i think once you aquired a big ship, the game`s pretty boring otherwise, (cleaning up the khaak or xenon might be another challenge, but you need much more for that but a single destroyer, and i just got tired of waiting after i aquired my first fully-fledged destroyer...) but i don´t like cheats, i think they take away the fun from the game. but there are some fine scripts that really make the game somewhat better. i myself am working on a script creating some larger ships flying around, eventually attacking your factories. so there will be a station, maybe a pirate shipyard, which produces pirate dragons or whatever, and will create new ships until its destroyed. if you want to have a look, heres the first version, put its`s just producing khaaks. i don´t think ist`s a cheat, because you will have to fight hard to be able to use the stations you get. anyway, there won´t be any "station giver" in the next version:http://www.s1-strauss.de/robert/rmvirtu ... s/x2sc.php
