instead of them using civilian ones ?
looks like code issue right ?
game designed as multi nation Earth "from zero to hero" start
especially purposed to play a bit low tech small ships instead big high tech one I had in most of my games
but everybody around build 16k+ ships even their only size available shipyard is civilian one
-
You can't control the NPRs. If you want to do an RP game, you'll need to play multiple factions. :^)
-
I only want them obeying this one basic rule not theor designs or ridiculus production level
I tried to have this game running without playing all 5 factions
but seeing multiple 16-17kt warships so early in game breaks all assumptions
especially as naval yards are still around 5-6k for all
-
That is because every race (even yours) gets a budget to buy ships at the beginning of the game, and ships bought in this way ignore shipyard availability.
-
Titonian wrong or rather partial info unfortunately
you get twice the yearly productivity of your shipyards if I remember correctly
so if you set zero shipyards - no ships are spawned
problem is with new ships constructed
military ships are constructed in much bigger civilian yards

My first ships I build 2-4 years in are usually 20k tons or larger. I flat out don't like building small ships.

I see no connection to the subject of this thread ....

I reiterate, you have no control over what the NPR does. As in zero. If you want an RP'd space race you will need to play the factions involved.
-
that what I fear and hoped to not see
I tried to minimize impact by self running shipyards in opening setup with only 1 naval and 1 commercial yards at the start at minimal size and all prespawned ships deleted
unfortunately seeing npr 40kt carrier is a matter of few years only
it looks like like multi nation "humanity to stars" game cant be made with minimal human player influance
and I dont feel I have time, devotion and strenght to run it by hand
-
Odd, I never knew that NPRs can do whatever they want with civilian yards.

Which I will fix in C# Aurora - no more mystery large ships :)
