I was asking if anyone knew how to use hex codes inside shipbuilder, or if it's even possible. Does it have to do with string editing?

Thanks for the replies guys! I was going for a gold color instead of the yellow, but I don't know how to get more colors other than the ones on the palette. I think I recall someone saying something about hex codes in these forums somewhere. I'll play around with the colors some more if I can figure...

An unamed fleet from a long-time lurker

I've posted ships on this forum only once before about a year ago and then promptly disappeared. Well, I regained some interest with Battleships Forever recently, and I decided to make a few ships. The result is the small fleet of five ships shown here. All sections are assigned custom hit point val...

Thanks for all the comments guys! Here's my newest ship. Gantrid [/i] http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v511/Swiftblaze/Gantrid.jpg The Gantrid is an assault frigate. Its purpose is much like the Argaunt's; however, it is more maneuverable and, consequently, more lightly armed, even lacking point de...

The German version probably has better information, but of course, it's in German and I can't read that...

Heck if I know. All your points are valid, Chaos. I can't find any textual information besides this passage from Wikipedia to explain it. Magog World ship This is the Magog 'mothership', and possibly the home world of the Magog. A superstructure made of 20 connected planets surrounding an artificial...

Here's are some images I found at andromeda-web.com after hunting around a bit. I can't believe how ridiculously difficult it is to find information on this thing. There's not even a wikipedia article for it. It's like I'm using a *gasp* library again! That's it in the background if I'm not mistaken...

I hold the Labrys as the most brute force that any of my battleships should have and use DavidBeoulve's system for more general testing. Each ship should not be able to make it through grinder alone. the smaller ones wouldn't be able to make it alone through probably about wave three or something ma...

My first few ships

I've been lurking through these forums for awhile (like almost a year) and I've finally decided join the ranks of newbies and release a few ships of my own! These first three were going to be part of a fleet until, after reinstalling BF, I was unable to reopen their respective .sb3 files. I decided ...
