BASES
Garrison (redo cvh) joints done, textures done
TP REF
OP
SY
EXP
SUP
TAC
Ramaglor has models for these I believe. No textures are ready. No joints. We may be receiving assistance from Quia for the textures. I can do the joints. Ramaglor may be doing the cvh.
ART
New turrets = new particles
Possibility of making new F5 research icons for certain things, not priority
SOUND
New turrets = sound effects, I have been looking around, trying to avoid space invaders type sound, you know.. the wuss cannon high pitch variety, we need some bass kick
missiondef = Text for faction specific mission launch screen
sounddef = sound coding
Just wondering, might be worth a try to give adv miner a weak turret? Should be an interesting concept to try and will give a slight advanatage in getting them. *(pros : better sf defence, cons : a player is stuck in a miner (even if he will eject he has to walk back to base), player cannot defend a set of miners). And is in the philosophy of the faction.

Too bad. That would add all sorts of comedic opportunities... especially when the miners all decide to fly through the enemy's home sector. WHERE ARE YOU GOING? AHHHHHHH!
It might be usefull to have a current progress segment on the first post, just so we can check on it once and a while /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
How difficult of a code change would it be to have drone turrets and missiles anways?

What, the first post isn't long enough already? heh. Work contiunes even though we haven't been posting updates every day. It's coming...

It's not impossible...it'd just be very time consuming for something that may be too cheesey and/or unbalanceable.
Other miners get things such as a small ripcord, or the abilty to ripcord... dont see what would be wrong with a turret. Wouldn't have to be a strong one, but would be enough to keep a scout at bay or assist defenders somewhat by shooting missiles as well
