Ship Designs?

from Sins Forums
Hi there, I am a huge fan of GalCiv2 + the Homeworld series, and I am eager to play this game.

I wanted to know, do you plan to include some kind of ship designs to the game? I know that, as a RTS, we won't have the time, in-game, to draw our own ships, but what about importing ship designs from the GalCiv2's Ship editor? Or have a simple "out of the game" editor, allowing you to import ship shapes into the game?

That way, clans in Multiplayer would have their own "Design Mark" to identity themselves in Multiplayer games.

If you mean something like the actual ship editor in GC2 where you completely create your own ships, its very unlikely. At most, you might be able to get a custom logo/color.

They did say that modding would be allowed and that they would even releases a tool set of some sort. So depending on how good of a modder you are, you could make your own (or at least re-skin) ships but you probably wouldn’t be able to use them in multi-player.

IF the changes are purely cosmetical, I don't see why multiplayer would not allow them..?

like homeworld, I hope

come to think they might just put an input capacity into the game

however building your own ships is out of the question (without drastic modlike changes) and will totally *not* be supported in MP
