Default Request for Racial Rivalrys

Malfador, could you make as the next update a race rivalry mod. Make it so you can set a certain race name as a rival. If this race encounters one that is it's rival they declare war. Either this or they have very high political penalties against this race. This would make it so certain races would never get along. You should never see an alliance between Colonials and Cylons, Galactic Empire and the Rebels, ect.

Great idea. I think there already is one in place, the EE and someone else. In the race descriptions it gives the details. Don't know if there is an actual game effect though.

It looks like it's only in the description of that race. No real effect in game.

Well, I sent an email to Malfador for my request. I'll let you all know what they say.

I like this idea, This would fit when I complete the cylons. (waiting for the new patch before I beta release them.)

Yes this is an excellent idea. It would add more depth to the game.

BTY atomannj have you voted for the civil war idea yet? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated

You have my vote. This seems like it would be fairly straightforward to implement

i.e. If race = "xxxxx" then anger = 500

to be placed in Anger.txt file. This way we could modify it for player add-on races.

I think its a great idea.

Done as Tampa_Gamer suggested, it could also be used for natural allies by using negative anger values.
