I have one question, there is talked on the threat about version 1.3, but Stem workshops has only 0.8? Am I missing something? Thanks for your answers.
I've had ideas, although they might be rubbish ideas.
Ok, first should Synthetics look like data? or would Data be something else?
Also, what about a level above synths that are Photonic lifeforms, like the Doctor or all those aliens who turn by the end of the episode to be holograms built by long dead civilisations?
Also, thinking about the Dominion.
What if the Dominion was primary species Vorta, Fanatically Spirtualist, Fanatically Collectivist and militarist and not xenophobic? Or if there was a version of the dominion (only one would exist at a time?)
As while the Founders are xenophobic and collectivist and not at all spiritualist, the Dominion isnt, it's all about collectivism and spiritualism, serving the Founders, and not hating other species but bringing them all into the dominion to serve to founders. And generally other species and empires don't know about the Founders as anything but the unseen, all powerful, gods of the Dominion that the Vorta serve but they never see. So then when you meet the Dominion it's the Vorta you speak with, and Vorta ambassadors and admirals and etc? With the dominion slowly conquering and subjugating all the galaxy and indoctrinating them into the worship and service of the Founders, who are gods.
Maybe the Founders wouldn't exist as a pop? but as exceptionally good Leaders given by events to the Dominion?

I think the Synths should be holograms. This would be more in-line with the ST Universe, as Data is supposed to be more of a one-off (excluding Lore, B-4, etc...)

Has there been any thoughts about adopting the Federation ships from the Starfleet Technical Manual (by Franz Joseph) into the game, i.e. the Saladin / Hermes class Destroyer and Scout (same model), the Ptolemy class tug and the Federation class Dreadnought? Going a step beyond, what about some of the models used in Starfleet Battles? Might be interesting to see a mod based on that universe, as well as a map of that game system...
My only copy is an old print copy from the '70s. Here's a link to the Technical Manual online. This formed the foundation of all derivative works that became the board game Starfleet Battles. http://www.cygnus-x1.net/links/lcars/sftm.php
Below are deck plans / external drawings that were based on the specific ships from the Technical Manual.

I hope that these at least give you a good start. While I own much of the game Starfleet Battles, I don't have much I can share in terms of the artwork. I'd suggest a search for it on the web. They have some unique takes on additional Tholian, Romulan, Orion and Gorn ship classes, as well as additional races, such as Hydrans (with a lot of fighter craft), Lyrans, Kzinti and the Interstellar Concordium. You should also get a good map online of what they like to refer to as the Alpha Octant as a start.

Just played a few hours game and I have some bug reports for you guys; I started a second game, without any other mods, and used the research_technologies CC to double check:
you still have the colonization techs to research:
Finally for some reason I jumped straight to the TMP era. What I mean is that the first event fired and then right away the second event fired so my ships went from the ENT era to the TMP era and I got the two scientist and ship at the same time.

hm, definitely need to disable them but they should not be reasearchable without cheat.Just played a few hours game and I have some bug reports for you guys; I started a second game, without any other mods, and used the research_technologies CC to double check:
you still have the colonization techs to research:
The AI will always pick the best performing component and in this case it is the mobius warpcore which you wouldnt get with a normal reasearch progression. only available with research_allThe Cruiser level three Warp core is using the "Mobius Warp Core" instead of the Linear one. Also the Cruiser takes a very long time to build; longer than the Battlecruiser.
thanks, we will have a look.For some reason a lot of the tile blocker all have the same generic picture now.
thanks will fix.P'Jem doesn't have a capital building on the alternative map.
yeah it has to do with what planets spawn around them, if they dont find habitable planets for them they wont colonize.
heh, you have encountered a very rare occasion where you got the 5 % chance to progress earlier.. i will have a look again
thanks for these reports. its much appreciated!
They came up on my none cheat game which is why I looked them up in the cheat one. If nothing else
they take up a possible research slot when they come up.
What I meant was that when I researched the third tier WC, the Linear one, the Cruiser didn't get that tech option; compare these two pictures:
As you can see I have the third tier of Warp Cores highlighted in both pictures; in the destroyer pic it has the Linear Warp Core III (Destroyer) as the tooltip.
In the Cruiser pic it has the Mobuis Warp Core (Cruiser) as the tooltip.
Long story short when I researched Linear Warp Cores in the non cheat game the Cruiser didn't get that upgrade option.
Further to that previous post, this is a link to rendered images of several of the Starfleet Battles miniatures. For obvious reasons, no one is allowed access to the models, but it may give you a good starting point.

@jwagne51 I've just gone and fixed this. Not sure when it'll get to you guys, but soon I hope!

is there an auto explore tech in the mod?
edit:
Bugs noticed
the 'A New Species' event that starts the trans-species revolt event chain, is firing without creating a new species or apparently doing anything, about twice a month for about half a year then cleared up
Also the only two savannah planets (Class Q) I've found have had no resources.
Everything else seems fine working smooth
