sorry, overcharging systems is impossible, it's hardcoded. It is possible to make a weapon that repairs system damage though. as for a bunch of ships together, it is possible, although some of the aspects would be slightly strange (if you hit the shields on one fighter, it would disable shields for all the fighters). You should check out the escort duty mod, it has a similar concept.

You are a very positive person, aren't you?

I have an idea: the special weapon you get from mini bosses will be a race specific weapon (e.g. a zoltan mini boss gives you some sort of zoltan weapon). These weapons aren't necessarily ultra powerful, but they do something specific to they're race (zoltan weapon wouldn't need energy, and the engi weapon would repair systems). Also, they could sell for alot more than normal weapons (80-100 scrap).

edit: also, could you try and find another sprite artist to help me out with ships? I don't have the time to create lots of ships and weapons for a project this size.

I like how this one turned out, I didn't think it would work very well.

xlander do you think you're going to make a weapon mod for all your weapon creations from infinite space 2.0?

I am not actually coding the weapons, (i'm horrible at it) it will be up to english narwhale to decide which is going to be in the mod.

Um, you can ASK me. I run this thread, and my tumblr (http://www.theenglishnarwhal.tumblr.com) is always open.

Hey all, I just downloaded Infinite Space (version .5.2, I think) not too long ago and have been thoroughly enjoying it, my only problem is that sometimes the game will just completely exit for no reason at all, causing me to lose my progress. As you can imagine, this is extremely frustrating.

After some searching, I found version .5.3, and also the one on the English_Narwhal's site, which was apparently updated about 8 weeks ago. So I patched it, hoping to get rid of that pesky bug, and now whenever I click start game after selecting a ship the whole thing just freezes. It still plays music, but I have to actually go to the task manager to terminate the program.

I've already tried deleting and reinstalling the game through Steam and made sure that an unmodified/unpatched version still ran on my machine; it did. Tried re-patching but to no success. Can't even play the "vanilla" version without uninstalling/reinstalling again, it seems like this new Infinite Space version permanently overwrites the normal version.

Sorry for the giant wall of text, but has anyone else had this problem? Did you fix it?

I had the same problem, although it didn't permanently override my game.if you read through this thread, the version 5.3 was removed because of massive game breaking bugs. we have no idea why this is happening, and english narwhal is working on the problem. remember, Infinite space 2 is still a WIP, and it is far from completion.
