Not sure if this is a bug or not, but the colony ship upgraded to lvl III. I was about to make another and they were no longer in the ship directory. Just by accedent, I found 1 world that had the ship in the directory. I have checked every shipyard on the map now, and this is the only one that will allow me to make one. Have made 2 new worlds to see if they would come back :( nope..

The fed Colony ship II has no good picture, logically it should have the picture of the Edwards class.
See the Edwards class

The fed colony ship lvl I in the file from that link shows in my folder as lvl II, lvl I is not in my TechObjects folder at all. Just the class III is right :) That still does not explain the reason that I can only make a class III colony ship on one planet.

It sounds like you did find a bug. Mike will have to look into the code.

The image and model for the Edwards Class was taken from BOTF I and should not be confused with the USS Edwards. The later apparently was a Nebula Class ship. We have taken the Edwards Class to be a colony ship as it was so in BOTF I. MOE may know of some other justifications.

The Conestoga Class, Federation colony ship I, was see in the series Enterprise. It is something other than the model we are using at this time. I hope to build replacement models for these problems in the major races once I have models for all the ships in the minor races.

Finishing work on the minor races depends on how many more times MOE and dafedz add ships to the minor races.
:borg:

Actually, the colony ship bug is known AFAIK (if it's the same one, couldn't understand fully what upgraded to what).

Not really sure what's going on with the database. Can't really recall if the ships should have PreRequisite settings - in the Feds, only the Transport II has this. The Klingon, Romulan and Dominion ships don't have any Upgrade/Obsolete paths set.

BTW, the Fed Scout II shouldn't obsolete Fed Scout I.

I'm not sure what happened with your Colony Ship, but I haven't got this specific issue in my to do list so either it's new to me or I forgot to add it to the list. I do know that shipyards can only build ships of a certain level though; it may be that only that one shipyard was large enough at the time to continue building the new breed of colony ships.

The Feds have a number of known issues. Here's my to do list for them:

Quote:
    FEDERATION
  • Ships have no/Incorrect Dilithium Costs
  • Reset science output for building type I
  • Change Federation scout ships to Federation scout to maintain naming convention. Images and database entries.
  • Venus should be a medium planet. Mars should be small.
  • Daystrom Institute should be tech 5, not tech 4.
  • Colony Ship I: no Shield Recharge
  • Colony Ship II: no Shield Recharge
  • Colony Ship III: 255% Refire, lvl 7/8, Phaser or Phaser Banks?
  • Construction Ship II: lower Science Ability than Construction Ship I
  • Cruiser I: description says it has "photon torpedoes and Phase Cannons" [capitalization] and stats say "Phase Turrets / Photonic Missiles"
  • Cruiser II: lower Maintenance Cost than Cruiser I
  • Cruiser III: lower Fuel Capacity than Cruiser II
  • Cruiser IV: upgrades to Cruiser V, which doesn't exist. Maintenance cost is 23820.
  • Cruiser V: Switch build and maintenance cost.
  • Tactical Cruiser: not available. Potential bug, can't find anything wrong in game files.
  • Explorer I and II: Phaser or Phaser Banks?
  • Explorer II: upgrades to Explorer III, which doesn't exist
  • Frigate III: no Pop Health value
  • Heavy Cruiser II: upgrades to Heavy Cruiser III, which doesn't exist
  • Heavy Destroyer II: 255% Refire, lower Crew than Heavy Destroyer I, same values for Fuel Capacity Speed and Range as Heavy Destroyer I
  • Heavy Scout: no weapons, 255% Refire, lower Crew than Scout Ship II even though it's bigger and heavier
  • Hospital Ship II: 255% Refire
  • Scout Ship II: 255% Refire, same Fuel Capacity as Scout Ship I, incorrectly obsoletes Scout Ship I
  • Surveyor I: no Population Health value, same Crew Size as Surveyor II
  • Surveyor II: 255% Refire, same crew as Surveyor I
  • Surveyor III: 255% Refire
  • Transport I: no Shield Recharge Rate
  • Transport II: no Shield Recharge Rate
  • Transport III: 255% Refire
  • Federation Outpost I: same Maintenance Cost as Outpost II
  • Federation Outpost II: same Maintenance Cost as Outpost I


I believe the reason for the Conestoga confusion is that Dafedz added the Conestoga to our shiplist before the model was seen on Enterprise. Jigalypuff created a model of the Conestoga after the Enterprise episode but this mdoel was lost during a server crash. Kenneth later acquired/created a new model without realising the Conestoga had an established design. I believe the existing model was a transport from TOS. As he said though, models can always be replaced or improved later on. The primary concern of the time was to fill in the gaps in the shiplist with whatever we could get our hands on.

The Cruiser V does exist, it was my bad, a confusion with the Supreme tech starting conditions. :doh:

I was wondering about that, the Cruiser V is the Intrepid. Matress likes Voyager... :sad:

But now she's back with us. :mrgreen:
