Theres been some talk about an interdictor ship in sins. but if one of these ships was introduced capital ships initial hitpoints would have to increase alot to balance this out, currently i'd say they die way to fast as it is and could use a hp / shield buff.

well i can tell u of one problem that can be fix. From 250% put it 2500% or even 35000% but then again it wouldnt go into the ship. I think one of the vasary cruisers has that ability you can test it on that. I dont remember the name but i thinks its skavaros enforcer. Keep us posted if it works

Put it on a cruiser rather than a cap, and make it relatively easy to kill, and very expensive to buy in fleet points, this will prevent it from being spammed, but it will still be a useful support ship. Plus it would have to be researched rather than being available from near the start of the game.

I'd like to see that a lot, especially if there was a way to use fleets with one of these ships to "park" somewhere along a phaseline, between two planets, so as to drag inbound ships out of orbit and right into the hands of your fleet.

The interdictor in EVE is a bit corny though. I'm a big interdictor/heavy interdictor pilot in eve and it only works if you pop a bubble BEFORE an enemy initiates a warp drive. The focus script for the heavy dictor is most useful since it puts infinite points on a single target...

I've already made a mod that modifies phase disruptors to simply disable phase jumping rather than a time increase. It's a simple boolean modifier.

I'm probably going to hack together a disruption frigate on Friday. I've been talking with some people at the local gaming club and came up with this:

- Based on the scout frigate (arcova, etc)
- All abilities are based on a radius (much smaller than a phase disruptor, probably around the same size as the flak burst for TEC cap)
- Passive ability to increase phase times by 250% (Same as old disruptor structure)
- Active ability that uses antimatter to disable ship drives for 20-30 seconds
- Active ability that uses antimatter to slow ships by 50-75% (like a webber in eve, cept it works on ships i a radius)
- Rather expensive... about the same price as cruisers
- Around the same durability as scout frigates...

I'll playtest it over the weekend at gaming club and see how it works out. Probably wouldn't release anything until the next patch as the current modding system is wwaaayyy too bugged.

Yes, except warp travel in EVE is based on slightly different concepts. In addition the interdictor cruisers in Star Wars were larger than the interdictors in EVE (Which are destroyer and cruiser sized vessels) The code in EVE is a bit wonky as well and it doesn't always work for pulling people out mid-warp. You pretty much have to still use them at stargates. In addition, the only comparable vessel in EVE is a heavy interdictor, since it generates it's own warp disruption field. The standard interdictors drop probes that generate a field and the interdictor itself can jump/warp away and the field will remain.

I am working on a small mod and i made a "tackler" frig that can slow down other ships and prevent them from warping.

My plan for the Ion Blast worked perfectly. The only issues I had were that the range was a little too short for mine. Also, the ship I had the ability linked to would only attack one target. Is there any way to make it so it will attack multiple targets that haven't been effected. In other words, is there a way so that autocast will detect what ships have phase jump disabled and skip them, striking other ships first?

EVE Alert!

good work man!! and yes i too like that it is so vulnerable. think that you can post it as a mod so i can be lazy and not do any of the work to play it?

Well there is a jump inhibitor ability on a capital ship. It's on either the evacuator or the human colony capital ship, I forgot, but I know it slows down ships in an area of effect by like 60% and makes jumps take a little longer.
