I would lke to see if EIS could make it so we can edit Zyrian and the other feds so we can change their names and ship names for custom theme games, this is for a future version of the TWGS/ TW 2002 course. Wouldn't it sound better if it said Capt Dylan Hunt on the Andromeda to the rescue on an Andromeda Theme game instead of Capt Zyrian of the Federation in the Intrepid. Just a thought Guys. I made another post similar to this in the other Tech support area, as well. Vulcan |

i agree. i think it would help the game grow and be more fun as people get more immersed into the theme of the edits. also, i'd like us all to send many emails to JP asking for a SITREP on v4  if he gets enough annoying emails asking the same questions, eventually he will be forced to post here on the status of v4

That is the reasson I wanted Zyrian and the other 2 FEDs on the server to be editable, it makes the theme gameplay more authentic, to the things the themes are based on, and to add more fun for the sysops who want to do the theme games, and like you I would like to know the status of v4 too. Also what is up with Jump Gate, it is in the servers configure as coming soon! Vulcan

It was scraped before it got off the Jump Gate server drawing board. |

Thanks WABBIT, It looks like I can take the Screen Shot down, looks like the forum isn't showing it anymore. Must be glitching or something, I couldn't get the forum to post another image either no matter what file type I used. Oh well no big deal. Vulcan |

Another cool idea for Fed edits, would be to leave the option to make Capt. Zy killable. |

IF that is possible. So you could have games without the Feds even in it or evil empire with an evil Zyrain that went after blues? Bethel |

Also I just thought of something else, how about editing the Fed Space to be, lets say the Commonwealth Space or something along that line of thinking. To me Being able to Edit all Fed data could make for better Theme games, but of course have the regular Fed data as the default, this way if a sysop wants to make total custom edits they can alter the feds, people, ships, planets, and space to be as per the theme game, JP, Harley , and Rick, what do you guys think? Could JP make this possible in the newer version or the next Beta? Vulcan |

The problem I see with changing names of Fed space and such is that would totally screw with helpers/scripts that trigger on those names. Of course, maybe that would make some people happy.[:D] Kimsanee |

Stardock DisneyLand. Rename the feds Pluto, Bugs Bunny, Fred Flintstone, whatever. |

LMAO Kavanagh, it would be comical that way, but I just thought it would be better if the sysops had a little more control on setting up the game for theme games, and Kimsanee2, it is just a suggestion and not necessary that all items be editable, but then again the script writers could add an option into the scripts that home in on the stock info and let you put in the data needed to for the custom games like that are suggested, these are thoughts at helping revitalize the game and make it more interesting for all.
