Big surprise. Im making a mod!!!! I think instead of other than making a mass combat mod (I.E. Your in a war, and you need to kick ass), I have a One on one combat mod, like G gundam. There would be med weapons (Which are really easy to program...) and more insane weapons. BTW its set just about 20 years after contact with Terra is established via Knossos (Dunno which Mod I will have as history. Thinking about system of chaos mod as a part of it.) And Terrans realized that people could make big cash off broadcasts of pilots fighting each other, sorta like the story behind Unreal tournament. PLEASE PROGRAM WITH ME!!!!!!! The mods working title is "BOOM BOOM FIRE". See ya.

That's not actually such a bad idea, particularly if you could make it as a sort of RPG, where the more fights you win, the more cash you earn, and the better ships and weapons you can get.

Yeah but it would be a ***** and a half to program. BTW I have a question: At what point is a mod no longer a mod but rather a new game using the same engine? I noticed this with FS2 (Which uses a modified FS1 engine.)

this reminds me of Aldo's Freespace Tournament, which had great idea's, but no-one had the time to do anything with it.
if you check the squadwar forum, you'll probably find 3 or 4 threads about it.

You'd need one hell of an impressive AI for good 1v1 combat, and since you don't even have a decent one with regular FS there's a problem.
