Looking for feedback for new component or research techs. Is there anything you'd like to see?

I'm running into the wall of diversity and I'm having problems thinking of something fresh.

Any ideas are welcome.

I'm currently doing Star Wars and Star Trek tech and components.
Maybe you could give a more updated list of tech for 2020 of research and components in vanilla DWU.

Not sure what you mean.

I decided awhile back to bring some later game techs forward but at reduced effectiveness. Energy to fuel, shield recharge, and hyper-blocking. I'm still testing whether I like it.

I wish I could split shield recharge into two camps. One line for recharge, one line for depletion (you could argue weapons deplete shields already so why bother). I could try negative values, but since shield recharge isn't a weapon you'd hurt your own ships (allegedly).

You can make something different from the soft coded modding?

In that case it can be very interesting, I work currently on a Farscape mod ! I read my race list for remember (I put between "_ _" the race name, you can ignore it).

Fresh idea could be :


Components :
-_Acquaran_ Electronic disable, give a huge debuff to any ships entering in the range
-_Ancient_ Worm hole displacement, all ships near the one using this technology (ally or not) warp and follow at the same speed the main ship.
-_Ancient_ Worm hole confusion, enemies ships are dispersed in further distance.
-_Banik_ Sharing damage, when one ship is damaged, damage are shared with nearest ally ships.
-_Boolite_ Second breath, if the ship is wrecked it have a chance to repair itself after a moment.
-_Breakaway_ Defensive grid, more ships are near each other more it increase there defense and/or damages.
-_Calcivorian_ calcivor, ships get a long duration buff when destroy a creature.
-_Charrid_ Hunting, if a ship load is warp, our ships get a buff of damage.
-_Ch'Talla_ Prolonged weaponry, more the fight take time, more ships gain damage

"Hill sphere warp dynamics" in energy research as a technology that enables ships to jump between Lagrange points in solar systems, though they will still need to exit the stellar influence if they want to leave the solar system.

Would love to see this as a mod to 'smooth' out the roughness of a complete solar system gravity well.

Thinking of attempting to mod this myself...
