Making An Ability That Will Create A Ship? Hmmmm.....

(Or Is This Kid Ever Going to Stop With The Questions?) :) Haha, not yet...

from Sins Forums

Hi,

       Okie, different tact, old idea. Is there a way to create an ability that will create a ship? Or more precisely, Is there a way for me to create an ability that will create a frigatefactory?  :)  (Why settle for one ship when you can get them all?) Haha.

Well, i have to start looking at the abilities. Im fairly familiar with the advent, and they create fighters/bombers, and lets see... i think that is it. The Tec im not very familiar with, but i recall their ships can produce fighters/bombers and planetshield and timed explosives, and a missle launcher as well. None of them actually move though, so they may be planetmodules, and if so, that may be the way, to find the one that creates the planetshield and see if i can have it create a frigatefactory instead.  :)

Well... just thought i would ask, in case someone knows. I believe SpardaSon21 did say BlackSeraph had done it, and i downloaded his mod to look at it, but it looks like he is using different models, but i cant locate an ability that creates a ship. Perhaps i am not looking well enough. Anyway. Thank you for all the help and take care and keep modding!!

p.s  One of these days i will run out of questions.... haha, or will get good enough to start answering them and helping out instead of posting questions all the time, haha, that would be a welcome change!  :)

 

edit: Ahhhh.... The Vasari have a phasemoduleconstruction ability and 2 buffs.   :)  Interesting, haha, if i ever played them i might have known. This looks promising!  :)  Sorry for so many questions, im getting there slowly. :)

... I know... i know... i need to hurry up!   :)  Haha, well.. im working on it.  :)

Thank you everyone!!

I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but the Vasari have an ability to clone ships. I believe the Skirantra Carrier level 6 ability (not totally sure on that). Good luck with whatever you're up to lol.

:)  Thank you.  Your tip was a good one, you are right, it works perfectly. I also ran across an ability from 

the TEC that creates a combat turret that just needs an engine put in.  :)

THank you for the nice tip, it was just what i was looking for.  :)

Yes teal, you can. just use the vanilla scramble bombers ability as a base, replace the bombers with a frigate of your choice, increase the max time to like half an our or so and there. ill post the file here if you need it
