Experience Vs Refit?

posted on October 7th, 2008, 6:12 pm

Hi there, quick question...

Once experience is accumulated and I then refit my vessel, does it's experience go down to 0 again? would you guys be able to put a code to retain it in... if not I suppose I could always change refits to only enable once experience is gained.

Thanks, Achilles.

yep a vessel will keep its experience after refiting as long as you used the replace weapon to refit it

As ships get more experienced, the odf changes right? How do you get the name to stay the same?

yep, the name stays too, there is also a parameter for the replace weapon to keep the vessels name

everything stays the same when leveling up. crew, damage, energy, given orders..

one additional thing, would it be possible for you to clone the replaceweapon classlabel, maybe just add a numeral onto the end. I realise this is a more personal specific request but if you get time to add it in it would be much appreciated.

There's also something wierd about the upgraded ships. I use to select all ships of one kind via double click. Well, when there are 2 Rhienn class ships for example and one has been upgraded already I can't do that anymore. Then only ships of the same kind AND the same level can be selected by a double klick. In battle this is crippling my micromanagment.

yes, i like to select vessels the same as you do, jan. so that is on todo, but not planned for the v3.0 release

I just use the fleet numbers (1-0). It's a lot easier.

sure, i use both actually but the doubleclick function is useful for example when you only want to select artillery vessels that don't have a group yet
