Base GA's

I was curious as to how base ga's apply to captured bases.

A few scenarios:

I buy hull and shield, then my exp gets capped. Does my opponent inherit the benefits?

I cap an enemy base, who has bought station ga's. I then proceed to buy my OWN ga's, do they stack on top of his?

Finally, I cap an enemy base, we have both bought station ga's. Do they stack?

Not entirely sure on this, iirc, they dont stack, and have the GA's of the controlling team applied, which are replaced by another team's if they capture it. A question for the code whores this is.

Yes, we're clueless here in ACS. You're looking for the Dev Forum.

No.

src\IGC\stationIGC.cpp:

Code: Select all

HitPoints            MyStationType::GetMaxArmorHitPoints(void) const
{
    return m_pStationData->maxArmorHitPoints * m_pstation->GetSide()->GetGlobalAttributeSet().GetAttribute(c_gaMaxArmorStation);
}

I got a similar question: Say you're GT and cap a Bios base, regardless of GAs, does the base get the faction mod of Bios or GT?

I'd also extend the question to probes. When bios steal a RP and drops it, is it an "IC" or a "Bios" RP?

im pretty sure thte code says that it inherits the side's attributes

That was my 1st though for bases, but when I think about it, IC bases capped by giga really feels like IC bases.

As for RP, I'm pretty sure that the properties are gained when the probe is dropped, so bios dropping a RP would just be the most wonderfull thing ever. That said, I never tested it.
