 about features objects scripts

(30apr2000) The server administrator can add or modify map and player objects. There can be multiple races with each race having different objects and technologies. If a construction object from another race is captured then that player can build objects from both races. If the player salvages the object then any technologies it had will be gained by the player.

Map Objects

Planets/Asteroids	resources
Stars	solar energy
Nebula	resources
Blackholes	destructive
Wormholes	allows near-instantaneous travel between two points in a map or between maps.

Player Objects

probe	short-range sensor that can be launched from a warp launcher. solar and reactor versions. the reactor version is also available with a cloak generator. the reactor version is also available with a small impulse drive.
cloaked mine	proximity anti-matter bomb launched from a warp launcher.
torpedo	anti-matter bomb launched from a warp launcher.
sensor array	long-range sensor platform. reactor powered, non-mobile.
resource tanker	large craft used to carry resources from one area to another. can be used to refuel ships and structures. warp and impulse-only versions.
mining platform	orbital structure used to collect resources from a planet, asteroid or nebula. a resource tanker must be used to carry the resources away or it will fill up and stop collection.
mining drone	small craft used to mine small resource collections: asteroids, disabled ships/structures and wreckage.
repair drone	small craft used to repair ships and structures. also used to capture ships owned by other players. built by any object with replicators: shipyard, starship, carrier and weapons platform.
light combat drone	small craft with low-power energy weapons. can be carried on the resource tanker and other spacecraft, used in groups.
heavy combat drone	larger craft with high-power energy weapons. can be carried on the resource tanker and other spacecraft, used in groups.
carrier	warp-capable ship that holds several dozen combat drones and two warp launchers.
starship	warp-capable ship that holds a few combat drones, two warp launchers and several high-power energy weapons.
weapons platform	non-mobile structure that holds several dozen comabt drones, 8 warp launchers, and several high-energy weapons. built by repair drones.
shipyard	non-mobile structure used to build most all objects. also used to upgrade and repair objects. built by repair drones.
research facility	used to research technologies. built by repair drones.
warp gate	non-mobile structure used to generate warp field around ships that dont have warp engines. built by repair drones.
towing ship(?)	warp-capable ship that can project a warp field around itself and the ship its towing with a tractor beam.
