Question about restrictions on Space Yards
Sorry if this has been asked before but I couldn't find anything.
I'm looking into modding the files so that there is a size limit to the ships that you can build on a planet based Ship Yard.
Large ships would only be capable of being build by a Space Station Ship Yard. Plus, it would be a major research undertaking to get Space Station level 1.
I thought this would add a bit of realism, it's how all SciFi series deal with the building of hugh cap ships. Just consider the environmental damage from that Cruiser taking off.
What I want to know from all those modding veterans out there is:
Is it possible? (I guess I would have to split the Ship Yards into two classes to prevent upgrade problems)
Would it cause major problems with AI? (i.e. The computer refusing to build Space Base Ship Yards and therefore being limited to smaller ships all game!)
And finally, is it worth bothering and do you guys have any comments/suggestions?
