Stats whore.

nice ships! I will playtest this. I wanna see if I can get to the end with ALL OF THEM!

Hey, I have a quick question.
What program did you use to design the ship graphics?
I use GIMP but I cannot find a way to make it grid-based so I can give it the FTL 16-bit or whatever vibe.
So I was wondering if there was a program for that.
Thanks!

Gimp

-> fixed the Cloak sizes....

... ofc noone bothers to tell me that they were off the whole time. Why do they need to be 20 pix greater than the original anyway?

If you have not done it so far, you should definitely check out my other mod!

I dunno. Maybe cuz thats the way the game handles cloak graphics, maybe it resizes the shield at the same time it shows it to make a similar effect of a cloak.. so thats the reason 20 pixels more.. but that is optional, u can put watever graphic size u want..

Thats weird, since i was using until now the same image size for cloak than the base image, and i didnt notice that the image is streched. Since we dont know for sure and we dont have an "official" tip about this, i think, u can put the image size u want, if the cloak graphics looks fine, who cares about the cloak graphic being +10, +20 or watever...

Nope. That's how it works. Take a look at vanilla _base and _cloak images in img/ship/ sometime, and compare their dimensions.
