The Experience System

I'm curious, for later modding purposes, are the ranks easily expandable, and are the effects of said rank improvement easy to add, or are they hard coded into something that modders won't be able to get at? I ask because I'm curious if this will be going into the patch project, if so... well that pretty much just is Armada 3

well reading the other posts sounds like the ranks are customisable  because there are unlimited possible rank achievements and it will be included in the patch project

yep the mechanics used for the ranksystem are relatively easy to mod (its a bit more to do then usual armada2 odf moding, but its not the most complex mechanic in Fleet Operations v3) and you can use an unlimited number of ranks. For further questions about the mechanics behind it, please open a post in the patch project forums.

have you thought about using admiral's ranks where the effects are transmitted to nearby ships or ships in the same group?

yep thats an idea for a future version, but not v3

cool


--- edit

would the effects from that be cumulative? ie: 4 admirals in the same group, effect is 4 times as powerful or something?
