  1. An event with R̶o̶g̶u̶e̶ ̶A̶I̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶P̶i̶r̶a̶t̶e̶s̶ two different factions fighting over an abandoned station.
  2. An Abandoned claimable cruiser event.
  3. An event with an 'abandoned' 'claimable' station that is being controlled by Rouge AI and attacks you when you try to claim it.
  4. Radar becomes unavailable in a nebula type sector.
  5. An item or system for an MMO server that is worth fighting over.
  6. An event that you get given a free system.
  7. Ships can jump onto asteroids to collect scrap, missiles and drones, but they take hull damage on impact. [#]
  8. Ability to decorate rooms inside of your ship with furniture etc. [#]
  9. Race related prices (once races are implemented). [#]
  10. Ships can dock with stations, outside doors connect with each other (This is not very plausible). [#]
  11. Boarding drone/in-ship turret. + Drone control room/system.
  12. Resurrect dead players/npcs. Using a one-time use item that can be stored in the ship and picked up from the med bay.
  13. Cloaking system like in FTL, ship image becomes n% transparent and every shoot fired at the ship misses for a short time.
  14. Zoltan-like shield.
  15. Worm holes like Bear has mentioned before.
  16. Freeze ray as an option instead of a hand-held blaster that freezes people for n seconds. [#]
  17. The ability for players and npcs if possible to mine asteroids instead of shooting them, I believe this would sometimes be funner.
[#]
That is all, sorry for the long post.


[#]= :!: Isn't these the ideas I came up? Oh, well. better go and think up more ideas then... :roll:

One or more claimable / boardable stations with a bonus (1 scrap per minute? Free repair? Anything else?) would allow KotH games on an MMO server.


This can easily be done in a0.7 using the events and the EVENT_TRIGGER AI for ships or NPC_EVENT_TRIGGER AI for Mobs.

I did this in my Conquest gamemode. If anyone is curious about how this works, they can take a look at my mod in the Tachyon download page.

Wow I just found the link.
Good work!
I like the idea, and I can help you with the issues you've mentioned in the readme.txt
Add me on skype: kcd.Spektor

P.S.
Small update:
I've finally started working on adding mob fights :)

Hey.
Sorry I haven't been on the forums or skype recently.
How are things going with Tachyon?. . .

Well.. anyway.
I've been extremely ill the past month, and because of this I haven't been able to speak or anything on the forums, so I'm really sorry.
I'm still going to be in the hospital but I wanted to come say hi before I go for a while again.

I'm really looking forward to playing Tachyon with you guys again.
and Spektor, please don't give up. Not that I think you will.
But it must be extremely tough making this so I just wanted to say.
Don't give up, know that we all care about you and can wait if we need to cx



And... Before I go. . .
Remember to

I hope it's nothing too serious, and wish you to get well soon.

Thanks for the kind words.
And don't worry I'm not planning on dropping it ;)

I was thinking maybe a Tachyon subreddit would be nice. It would help to spread the word about the game and get some more feedback and contribution. Just a thought since I can't draw or code.
