NPC stands for "non player controlled" if I remember correctly if they are a computer run enemy they would not be. So there is a chance!


I wont to make a request of the FO team to have option if not having then in the computers rase selection can we have them on the instant action screen it would make allot of people very happy including yours truly.

They are NPC and will appear on certain maps to my current knowledge. For a list of playable and NPC races look at 'races.odf' file in the system folder. For playable races they have the big 5, Noxter, Iconian, and Ciadan. For NPC Races they have Breen, Cardassians, Species 8472, Bajorans, and Tholians.

this I know, But I wont to see them as a option in instant action. with is what my request is. I am grate full to have the FO team and the Blood sweet and tears they up in to there work witch is assume there one thing missing for me to make it prefect for me is the cardys and I know of the teams plans very well AND I think the FO teams plains would not be hart by adding the cards as a option in the instant action menu.

I am NOT asking for a playable race just a race I can fight at will.

So basicaly, select an option in the menu and they are added like another player but are not added in the race selection list?

There already is an option in instant action that says "NPC Races On/Off." While it only effects the Ferengi now I have no doubt in the future it will perhaps fill in remaining player spots on a map with a random NPC race.

Sorta, in what ever why they think is best just make it so they cant be selected as a playable race.

How ever they wont to do it will be fine but I would really really really like to see them in instant action as a adversary. But its up to the fo team.

So basicaly, select an option in the menu and they are added like another player but are not added in the race selection list?

non playable races can be placed on maps (or appear randomly) and they will build up a base and react similar to a normal AI controlled player. They will not be selectable as an AI-Race upon game start, as they usually have much shorter techtrees and not that many different vessels or avatars

I see, thanks for what you do and for responding quickly and honestly.

Will there be mixed-tech options for NPC Construction ships?
