I made a suggestion on how to make an Airbase using the Taris Sith Base as I must have mistook which Sith Base or Embassy you were referring to and not really paid attention thinking it better to make a suggestion about what level to use or how to alter a level to make what I thought you meant by an Airbase. ( Airships from Final Fantasy came to mind for me, don't ask why. )

Well clearly it is intended as a new destination, if "using assets from Dantooine" you literally then went on to explain how it was a new destination.

"I realize I never explicitly said the base was intended as a new destination " @ZeldaTheSwordsman

"Allow me to make it explicit: I'm intending this Sith fighter base as a new destination on the galaxy map. "

definitely a new destination, you keep contradicting yourself here it's quite frustrating.

"* A Sith airbase. Probably using assets from Dantooine (for the planetary terrain) and Taris (the military base landing pads, the docked fighters, and probably the base interior)."

and... wait for it... "Taris (the military base landing pads, the docked fighters, and probably the base interior)." @ZeldaTheSwordsman

Literally the part of the level I was referring to re-skinning for using for what I envisioned as an airbase.

But Apparently "but what exactly about this part suggested that the base was either in the air or on Taris?" none of this made any suggestion towards using the Taris map. I never stated it was on Taris in the slightest, I simply suggested how to re-skin a level.

Well I am going to leave you to it, I have made whatever suggestions I can and tried to follow the majority of posts you have been making. Good luck.

@Thor110 I seriously don't understand what you mean by me contradicting myself. Apologies for swearing at you in the original version of this post... I sometimes get overly agitated when I'm confused.😳🙊

Is the seeming contradiction between "I realize I never explicitly said the base was intended as a new destination" and Allow me to make it explicit: I'm intending this Sith fighter base as a new destination on the galaxy map"? That's the closest thing to a contradiction that I could find, although it isn't actually one. The first statement is me owning up to not spelling that out in the previous posts. The second statement is me amending it by spelling it out in the then-current post.

If that's not what you were talking about, then I'm lost; you'll have to spell it out for me.

You're absolutely right, you never said it was on Taris. But I was also (and in fact, mostly) addressing @N-DReW25 in that post, and he was very much talking like I was going to put the place on Taris.

What confused me in your post was how you got the idea that by "airbase" I meant a base floating in the air, when I had said that the base was going to have planetary terrain. That.. that baffled me.

Also, with regards to your previous post, the suggestions about how to re-skin a level are actually very helpful and I deserve a kick in the pants for not thanking you for that. I got distracted by reacting to N-Drew...😳

What I will not apologize for is bawling out Invision's editing interface. It's extremely annoying that you can't view posts fully in plain text while editing them, especially when it comes to quotes. Not only that, but while typing this I noticed the "Quote" and "Preview" buttons have their icons switched.

I guess I missed part of your post, it happens, honestly from experience the best thing to do is just to get dug into the game and see what you can make out of it before you start coming up with too many outlandish ideas that may not be easy to achieve within the limitations of the engine.

Back when I started my project I had countless crazy ideas ranging from full ports in both directions to new maps, all sorts, most of which had to be scrapped entirely as I began to learn the limitations / restrictions imposed by the game engine.

It's all good, I guess I just went on the details I picked out of each reply, I have spent countless hours discussing crazy project ideas for the game with people and it can get a bit much to follow another persons idea sometime as you cannot see what they want to make.

I am sure you'll work it out, but actions speak louder than words and words are plentiful for a great many.

Best of luck achieving whatever it is you wish to do with the game or finding a route towards what you wish to create.
