One question, will the hardpoints be the same as in Alliance (Do all the ships have a lot of hardpoints)? If so, I'd recommend to make them untargetable but still destroyable, a ship covered with green dots looks weird, especially when there are many hardpoints, but that is just my opinion, it's your mod after all

The amount of hardpoints is probably very similar to the Alliance but the hardpoints look different, at the end, there are many things shared between both mods.

But you can not make a hardpoint untargetable and still destroyable, the mods where you saw it, the hardpoints were hidden and you could not destroy them one by one, at the end, you lose a lot of detail from particles and other parts. I have made sometimes special addons from old versions of the Alliance with this feature.

This is not true, you can make hardpoints invisible and destroy them on by one, I tried it myself, take a look at this p.e. Youtube.com Hardpoints are untargetable but it still works fine

I do not know if your eyes are different to my eyes but I do not see any smoke from any harpoint particle.

I agree that it's hard to see in this footage but as the Sith destroyer is getting more damaged, you can clearly see smoks coming out of the destroyed hp's

I see a victory star destroyer to the right down of the sith destroyer. One original model from EAW clearly. Other point, if the hardpoints are destroyed, why are not the engines off line?

Look the death clone from the Sith Destroyer, when it happens, you see how the particles looks, it is the unique moment where you see them on the video.

That's a bug, which I could fix, but this project is dead so I'm not doing it

A simple providence from Rebels. Rebels can build a few old starships.

Description

Well, the mod is almost ready to be released as a public beta but at my opinion it is very unbalanced with the weapons damage from some units, the chance from defender you from the IA attacks and probably with the scale from some units. Because it is not a original proyect from me and I respect the different opinions, I will release it as it is but please if you want blame to somebody by this, I wait that you do not choose to me when I have not made more than fix the big problems.

The next days I will publish a list of units and heroes, I know that many people want know them.

The release will be beta because it needs be tested, probable there are more smaller bugs but I do not want be waiting to the release one year more, it is now or never.;)
