Subspace Signals

[Echo35]

So what happens if we destroy the sub-space signals?

its permacloaked and friendly...  >.>

I guess maybe attrition? <.<

I can definitely still see it though. Shows up as an object with the old control node graphic and Mk. V. In fact I have my Scout flying around it right now. I think when I take that planet I'm going to find a way to kill it and see if the game explodes.

EDIT: Actually scratch that. When I drag select it, it shows up as an enemy. Now I just need to get a Tachyon Missile in here and I'm good.

[Lancefighter]

yeah :p i meant hostile attrition.. which it doesnt seem to be immune to. Remind me to try a double-attritter ai sometime..

Ah, I see. Well there are Spire Asteroids on this planet. I could attrit it myself ><

Roughly the same thing as firing a chaingun at your foot

IT ONLY HAPPENED ONCE!!! 

[Spikey00]

You must destroy the heathen who encroaches upon your territory!

Oh well now I HAVE to do it. I just need to build my fleet strength up enough to attack that planet and then I shall destroy it!

EDIT: Neutron Armor! Where are my Cutlasses...

[keith.lamothe]

It doesn't do anything special other than prevent further progress on the Fallen Spire stuff

And you needn't look far, one spawns on your homeworld at the start of the game if FS is enabled.

Yeah, I just didn't think you were supposed to be able to actually see them.

[keith.lamothe]

No, you're not supposed to see them, and I figured that the EnemyToAll minor faction flag would work for that, but since it shares a player number with the first human players no such luck   I guess I can try giving it AIAlly but then it'll show as a hostile in other contexts, etc.

I'll probably just have to add a new "please don't draw this ever" flag

[MaxAstro]

Speaking of, there should probably be some sort of "thou hath f***ed it" message that triggers if you fail a Fallen Spire quest to let you know that you don't get a second chance (do you?  As far as I could tell if you lose the initial shard the quest just terminates...).

[Lancefighter]

if you lose a shard at any point, your screwed.

if you lose a city at any point before you can build more.. your screwed.

Assume that the loss of anything spire related results in.. you lose :p

You're playing AI War... you lose.
