This looks very interesting, and I like the concept. But this actually sounds like a mother-ship to me, and calling it that makes more sense to me as well, since it can actually move and hyperspace.
Any way, urge you to be careful so that you don't break the game play with this. What it would take to break game play, I don't know, but I'm sure you will get plenty of feedback once the first alpha or beta versions come out.

Wish you luck and am waiting in anticipation for first release.
I'll keep that in mind. By the way, it isn't EXACTLY like a mothership, as it cannot move at all - only hyperspace and galactic hyperdrive. It remains in one spot in each system, near the witchspace beacon.

[quote="Thargoid"But some of them are certainly do-able, indeed at least two are parallels to some of my own OXP's functionality.[/quote]

Is there any bits of code I might be able to borrow off of you for building off of? Again, I have actual work programming, so any help on this OXP would be welcomed? (And yes, you'd get credit).

See my OXP licenses in the readme. You're welcome to any of it, as long as mission variables etc are suitably modified (just to prevent any unwanted interactions between scripts using shared ones).

The two I was thinking of are the repair bots (in same-named OXP) and the missile machine (in Armoury.oxp).

Quite happy to help and advise too (and quite possibly learn something myself), like I said I want you to prove me wrong on the things I think aren't possible to do!

Ironically, those two were of greatest inspiration to the concept. TY...!
