lol, Who would make it?

Post Sun Jun 01, 2003 4:08 am

im from vic, but i know nothing about modding so i cant help there, sorry... but having beer as a commodity is the best idea ive heard in ages!

and i'd have to say that seven systems is going a bit far... at least knock off nt/act, just have them as planets or something. i'd love to see this happen though

Hear Hear! Well Spoken Bruce!!!

This seems a good idea. Actually, to came to think of it... I need help too as i've just started my own mod too. It's the "Galapagus Mod", for all those looking for it... you won't find it 'cause its still waay in development, but it'll be great.

Anyway, if you need a guy to test you're mod, Hobbie, then mail me.

P.S: Could anyone help me with my mod?? I'm kinda stuck. Post you're mails to my topic... Its somewhere on this forum!!

Okay okay, slow down. First off, I will be assigning people jobs. I'm halfway through Northern Territory and have barely started New South Wales. Lane Hackers are the base criminals and I might add Xenos to them until I figure out how to make new factions and add the Namatjirans. The cops and Navy are currently Brentonian, but will soon be New Australian.

Beer will be added as a commodity! In demand everywhere but New Australia!

Here is a list of everything in Northern Territory:
*Planet New Darwin (Police)
*Planet Alice Springs (Interspace)
*Uluru Base (Armed Forces)
*Battleship Akubra (Armed Forces)
*Bight Base (Lane Hackers)
*Uluru Debris Field (Lane Hackers attack the Trade Lane running through it) (Battleship near the Trade Lane)
*Jump Gates to New London and New South Wales
*3 Trade Lanes with traffic

I'm a bit confused with patrols with the tool I'm using. I'll ask shsan if he can tell me how to figure it out.

Beta 1 to be released soon!

Bight Base renamed to Kangaroo Base and a Jump hole to Cambridge located nearby.

Sucessfully added Beer! Now available at Planet Alice Springs! It has the same sell price as H-fuel but a much less buy price and is in high demand at Kangaroo Base, which is paying $429 for it!

sounds cool, cant wait Hobbie.

Patrols are easy to put in, once you finished the path, double click the left button to end it and it brings up a patrol screen where you can edit who's patrolling and stuff like that.

Sounds interesting, but i can see a few flaws already...


The chicks would all 'eat from the bushy bowl'.

The planets would all be deserts.

The ships would all be ute's. And flightless! (emu gag)

And you'd never be able to buy any equipment or weaponry, as EVERYONE would be w@nkered in the bar....

I could go on of course, and i'm sure someone else will have a go too. I'm Irish, so i'm sure that'll have 'some legs'.

No disrespect m8. Good luck with the mod. Keeps it alive.

Sounds like a plan! Good luck I look forward to seeing it when its finally completed (if my FL ever works again )

I'll tell ya what would be a nice touch though, make beer a perishable item, so it makes out Trent is drinking a steady supply of it before he reaches his destination

Post Tue Jun 03, 2003 1:31 am

LOL this would have to be the funniest mod I've ever heard (I'm from VIC)! Steller idea mate, don't stress out about the number of systems, it's YOUR mod so you can keep the number of states = number of systems. Tough for other people who want to have a whinge about it!

Post Tue Jun 03, 2003 1:59 am

I love the perishable beer idea, and the ute one doesn't sound so bad (maybe a Titan covered in mud with a coathanger for an aerial would work as well, just have to convert it into a trayback ).

Idea for a new faction as well: QANTAS - The Interstellar Carrier of choice.

Post Tue Jun 03, 2003 2:36 am

Make two factions


Aborigonies and Whites or something...

Northern Territory is 100% complete (I think)! Thanks KillaFish for your advice. It's ready for the Beta. Just need to test it.

The mod will be compatiable with FLMM.

And about the Whites and Blacks (no offence), the Namatjirans are Aboriginal people who are having a toss about the way that the New Australians prefer the white people. As some people already know, Albert Namatjira was a famous Aboriginal, and the Namatjirans are called the Namatjirans in his honour.

"New Australians prefer the white people"

Umm so nothing has changed from the current day then :/

Post Sun Jun 08, 2003 2:04 am
