Misc stuff

[matthewhively]

• [ ] Fix all Morrigi DN viewbox distance (since they are tall instead of long, they don't fit well)
• [ ] Morrigi DE sections are not consistently placed (often moving too far right or up)
• [ ] Morrigi Persuit section weapon boxes are off center ??? how did I fix this before ???
• [ ] DN Gravboat large mount is off center
• [ ] Re-standardize racial drive tech costs (different races are vastly different). They should probably be related to the cost of Fusion/Antimatter. (in prep for phase 3)
• [ ] Fix shield strings to match effects. Not just high energy weapons.

??? Do grav shields block ballistics? The wiki says so?

??? I thought Deflectors were 100% immune to ballistics?

~Looks like some things are missing from the AI section affinities:~

• ~Support == Refinery~
• ~Morrigi War sections~
• ~COL needs more roles (not just mines)~
• ~Firecontrol should not be reserved for balistics~ (Fixed)

maybe it'd be easier to give Zuul "War" sections as well (duplicate of armor) and lock it behind a tech they cannot get... just to make this file cleaner.

See forum post: http://www.kerberos-productions.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=48875&sid=44811f9c4a41f27c47d419413d925de3

Reference affinity_section.csv from ACM mod for some ideas.

~Extra purposes (not listed in file) planet_attack_bio -- probably defunct las_cm damage_cm -- probably defunct shield_cm deflector_cm reflect_cm~ (added)

Sections not listed:

• ~Pursuit~ (yeah its in there, under defense platform attackers)
• ~Gravboats~
• ~zuul Devourer~
• ~flagships~
• ~Wraith Abductor~
• ~Boarding~
• ~DN electronic Warfare~
• ~Asteroid Monitor~ (added)

Do a scan of ALL ship mission sections in the designer, correct all designs that are off center.

• liir command station animation is not working properly

  • There isn't an animation defined (for any command ship)... so it may be a bug in the model file itself. I'll have to check unmodded version to be sure

• Remove IND_AdvDreadEng from DNCarrier, the technology already requires it (duplicated)

[matthewhively]

Buff the damage estimates for armor piercing gauss a little bit above the regular ones. They are generally ... just better. Maybe put them in separate families so that the AI might use both types?

Rebalance the mining ships cargo capacity so they take an even number of turns to fill to capacity (use the mega stripmining version)

[matthewhively]

• maybe AP rounds should require some more advanced tech.

• maybe rather than boosting boarding pod HP, maybe boost their travel speed slightly?

  • They cannot really keep up with ships flying away at max speed
  • ??? do they gain bonus from small scale fusion?

• zuul ER section is not all that much cheaper than Armor.... should probably be slightly more cheap (especially since they are kinda worthless)

[matthewhively]

• Moon and asteroid changes (increase likelyhood of moons especially)
