Community Suggestions Thread - Sins of New Eden mod for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion

All my suggestions from the comments in a nutshell. If Pirates will be sansha make the pirate bases the huge sansha battlestations. Make the industrial ships use lasers on the asteroids (if feasable), and make them defaultly the lowest grade mining barge, then have a research that upgrades them to retrievers, then to covetors, and as a bonus to the faction that mines the most, have another research that makes them hulks. Make colored skyboxes work. (even if they dont reflect off the ships, but it would be even cooler if they did) Add destroyed structures like the ruined monuments and destroyed space stations to the space junk, plasma storm, and magnetic cloud areas. And you could add the destroyed mining drills and abandoned mining stations to the asteroid belts.( you should add an option to turn that stuff off and on because that might make some peoples computers lag a lot more). And for the races starbases, could you make them that races battlestations from EVE? and add titans if you can..... Also I have some gameplay videos on youtube, and some people are complaining about the gallante color being slate grey, can you fix that?

As a request for next release, could you add some eve stations? I just want to see what they would look like (eve stations instead of trade ports ect.)
also I dont buy things off the internet, only disk release mostly, so when rebellion comes out will you make a full version for entrenchment or diplomacy? Because some people (like me) only have trinity and wont get rebellion for a while.

So there you go, I will post whenever I have an idea. you can judge wether it is good or bad, or wether its feasable or not. Take your time with this but I hope to see another release soon!

just wondering: what ships are done atm? and when will there be another release? ^^
(Soon, i guess as every game developer says it )

my ideas/tips:
- give every ship drones/fighters/bombers as they would in eve, so you can really start an strikecraft war
- make seperate drones/fighters/bombers for each ship, so that a bs can't use bombers but can only use normal drones.
- POS's instead of starbases(i don't know where the guns should than come, as it normally has pos guns around it. which would mean more pos guns etc. after every upgrade of the starbase)
- keep health low on ships, and not the real stats from eve, cuz that would make a battle last even longer than it already does.
- balance ships so the dreads actually got an use and BC's aren't OP
- make the UI pics correct, so you get the ship of the pic and not some entirely different ship
- make asteroid mining thingies more awesome, like a laser drilling into the asteroid
- if your gonna make the pirates sansha, let them use alot of nightmares, as its their most used ship(and best looking one ) (also, if sansha is coming at their base of operations give em 1 ship that is like crazy strong , like an officer spawn in eve)
- fix some ships, like a supercarrier that has guns on the ship(riiight..), and give ships turrets, and make that weapons on dreads etc. thicker, i tested the revelation and its beam is like kinda tiny.
- if possible, make cyno's possible ;D
- if possible, make ships allign faster/warp faster, cuz it takes so long to get to another star
- make ships allign properly, i've had several times that my capital ships just went in every direction for no reason, and out of nowhere they just stopped and turned to warp while they were pretty far away from the fleet
- i've had several of my ships once they get in a gravity well that they warp again in the gravity well going 1m in front of where they were at first(i had this with the harbi alot)

i guess that was it for now...might come up with more later tho xD

also: are you gonna give certain people acces to a new "patch" earlier than others? for testing purposes ofcourse, to make sure the patch works (A)

Another cool idea is that you should take the skyboxes from eve and put them in sins. Like the amarr golden skyboxes on yellow suns, the gallente blue/greenish sky on green stars, the caldari blue on blue stars, and the red minmatarr sky on red stars. That would make it even more eve related and epic.
