Mod ideas

i think this is the right forum for this...(no place else)
i Cant make mods and so i just want to put some ideas up in the air for mods ( i can only guess what is possible and what is not so frgive me if im dreaming)

1. cloaking devices for players to use

2. new jobs such as Blowing up battleships, delivering goods, defending a station and escourting a ship

3. if there are pilotable battleships you should be able to dock with those and if you pilot a battle ship you should be able to store a fighter on that battle ship and when your done with the fighter just return to the battleship

4.also out side of the story you could have 2 houses at war and for example if Rhienland was trying to invade iberty they would have say a space station somewere to luanch attacks from it

5.also if it is possible have different skins for ships and trent (inculding milatary uniforms)

6. when caught smuggling contraband you should have the ability to try to bribe a officer

7. there should be a singleplayer mode were you pick were you start out and start out with a standard light fighter there and 2000 credits

8 use a tractor beam to pull a ship so you could have say a misson to rescue a ship

9. also if this was made it should do what evaloutins 1.28 does and have custom ship parts execpt you should be able to upgrade the engine

10.if your cuaght with contraband and you cant bribe your way out if you drop the cargo you should also be forced to pay a fine

11. some bases should have places to gamble

12. i higly doubt this is possible but i am saying it any way for inside the game say DSE would build new base

13.i know alot of people will disagree and i know other people have thought of this 2 buti just thought i would be interesting if you could join a faction

Well thats all i can think of for now so i hope if anyone is making a mod they will consider putting some of those ideas in

1) TLR seems to have a vendetta against these. Plenty have been made, you might just have to do a google search.

2) Means modifying the exe, a lot of modders won't do it.

3) Can't be done. Sorry, it was a good idea.

4) www.ioncross.com and www.flaminghorizon.tk have both used that idea.

5) That's used in most mods as it is.

6) Again, not possible.

7) Been done quite a few times. I'll get back to you with the mod name if I can find it.

8) Sorry, also not possible.

9) Yeah, that is a pretty cool thing. I like what evolutions has done there.

10) Nope, can't be done. Unless you have a player controlled police force

11) www.problemgamblers.net

12) May be possible, I can't really answer that one. The old starfyre studios has done something with players buying bases. So who knows?

13) www.ioncross.com and www.flaminghorizon.tk again. It's all about faction vs faction.


Oh and by the way, Ioncross is an awesome mod, Flaming Horizon is my mod, not anywhere near finished. (Just a cheap plug I guess)
