This is not an area to debate the pros and cons of proposed features. It is an area for people to suggest new features for either TW or TWGS. I will either add the proposed feature to my planned features list, or explain my reasons for passing on the feature at this time. Features added to the list can be voted on so I can gauge people's interest.

 Would like to set Type of Twarp a ship could use.Wonder if we could get a flag that would limit a ships ability to use the type of Twarp.
From: None All To None Only Type 1 Only Type 2 Type 1 & 2 This would make some custom ships more unique. Thanks |

Re: Would like to set Type of Twarp a ship could use. Hmm, I didn't realise it was just a yes/no thing for TWarp drives. Probably should have supported None/TWarp1/TWarp1+TWarp2.

Re: Would like to set Type of Twarp a ship could use. J.P. you need to get out and play more.
 Another thing , is scanners .. only the pod can start with density .. no other ship has one till you buy it. This too would be a nice flag as well. _________________ TWGS V2 Vids World on Guam Port 2002 Telnet://vkworld.ddns.net:2002 Discord @ DiverDave#8374 Vid's World Discord Founding Member -=[Team Kraaken]=- Ka Pla  Winners of Gridwars 2010 MBN Fall Tournament 2011 winners Team Kraaken Undisputed Champions of 2019 HHT Just for showing up!

Re: Would like to set Type of Twarp a ship could use. I could add a group of settings to allow certain ships to have certain hardware when they're purchased.

Re: Would like to set Type of Twarp a ship could use. In so many games you can't make it to SD unless you get on the game right after rebang because you can't scan as you move to SD. Others have made it there first and a trap has been set up for all new players into the game. Why is it stardock has so much more than mother terra or her port? You can buy holds, fighters, and shields only. What about a long range scanner? Throw us a bone here lol.

Re: Would like to set Type of Twarp a ship could use. Yeah, it is imposiable to get to stardock without a scanner, and what is up with the rule that you can't tow a corp member from fedspace?

Re: Would like to set Type of Twarp a ship could use. I don't know. I didn't write it ;)
The issue with being able to reach SD is another side-effect of the game going interactive. When the game was one-at-a-time, this wasn't a major issue. So, the rule is you can't tow anyone out of FedSpace. There has never been an exception for towing corpmates. Seems reasonable that there could be. _________________ John Pritchett EIS --- Help fund the TradeWars websites!

Re: Would like to set Type of Twarp a ship could use. Scanner option is nice. If you change the towing option that might open up a whole new can of worms. IMHO

Re: Would like to set Type of Twarp a ship could use. I wouldn't want to change a long standing rule. It was just an anoyance that I couldn't use Twarp to get my corpie past the fedspace blockade.

Re: Would like to set Type of Twarp a ship could use. True, there have been a lot of bugs over the years related to towing people. Probably still are as far as I know.
