Hey Sona, you might remember me from some of my posts on the Lancers Reactor. Personally, I think one of the tougher ships is the Nomad Attack Carrier, but I don't think that's buyable anyway...but it is a tough ship. I think I'd side with the nomads on this one if I could. In the mod I've been working on, my toughest battleship can be cut to shreads by the nomads. (well, parhaps that's because they're using modified Mark03 nomad lasers with a refire rate of 4 each) and the battleship has an ar…

To set up turret hardpoints so you could interchange all the battleship turrets, would require a serious reworking of the ship .cmp and loadout.ini files. This would require more work than you can imagine to change this. Then to top it off, it would most likely require a complete player wipe to get the updated files to register. Worse, if there are any errors... you're looking at a major server crash with a lot of down time to repair it. With a crash like that, I shudder to think of the overall…

(Quote) Hold on there... Don't try to put words in my mouth.That's not what I said. Changing .cmp and loadout files require a lot of work AND if there are any mistakes, that could cause a crash. ALSO, as OP-R8R said, (Quote) In my own experience:Such changes require completely new downloads and fresh installs of the original Freelancer for the updates to take effect. If you try to install it over the a previous version, you're going to end up with one hell of a mess simply because of file confl…
