[Request] Capture the territory to stop nest respawn

Post by dtxfw3u6 »

Here is the idea,
Define the size of a erea, like 1000x1000.
In the center of the erea, there's a facilities (or device) that can stop the alien nest respawn.

All you need to capture and hold it for awhile, maybe 30 mins in real life. in the maintime the alien in this area will go full attact.
Once you survive over 30 mins, this erea will become your territory permanently, the alien will not respawn nest here.

So you can keep pushing forward to the edge of the map.

You can already build a device like this, it is called the Artillery Turret.

Kinda different, the purpose for this mod is build a safe zone in huge range so you can travel much further, it will be a problem if the alien break though your defense but you are 20000 unit away from home.
The artillery can only cover about 10% of areaI hope for. even if you build 10 artillery to cover the whole area. it's still too much trouble to deliver the ammo.

Also, it's fun to conquer the lands, we don't need the little rebels in our backyard.

I've never had enemies break through my defense and settle down inside my base.
For that to happen, I would have to ignore a huge hole in my walls for a long time.

So for all intents and purposes, terrain within your defense is "captured".
What would this change?

Sounds more like he wants 0.13 victory poles back. I'm don't think the API currently allows for that to be reimplemented.
