[Graphic/Code] Personalizable ship graphics
Ie ship side streaks or flames, a spoiler, tinted windows, graffitti etc. If I see a HM essentially I might not have to see the ships owner name but just the ship itself might be enough unless someone copied it. Could be a mission thing.
How about a personalizable ship glow in the background ie red blue red etc pickable colored circle under the ship for those who choose it.
Or a personalizable star or heart or shamrock etc icon (similar yet distinguishable from emp run or mod stars but similar concept)
This could be cool imo.
Absolutely no benefit stat wise, just graphical choice per ship.

Re: Personalizable ship graphics
This is why there just was a competition with a reward like this!

Re: Personalizable ship graphics
I would love to see this as one of many possible rewards for things like completed Emperor runs, and helping to test content, etc.

I'm not talking whole unrecognizable skins either... Small things in general. Maybe you kill Kidd Hermes and all 4 oly ubers unlocks a possible graphical mod? If ship changes too much would be chaos. Small mods. The circle idea also would be useful for those with 'I can't tell my ship from background issues. A transparent circle that you could see debris under and yet still get a preferrable view of your possibly dark ship on a dark background. Personalizable and also visually functional to those that want it.

Re: Personalizable ship graphics
I would like to eventually add some special items that can distinguish your ship like this to be sold for space points.

You barely ever give them out. :'( I thought you could buy them at one point? You also get them from referral codes, or used to - I don't know anymore.
@Poster: This seems more like a graphical 'reward' for completing various tasks, which I think will cause alot of problems. Graphical changes should be for Competition winners, emp/team, mods, admins, and Timmeh ! Perhaps a log book of every ai/uber ingame and how many times you've killed it? Gives a new dimension to top-players, also, T20+ bases dropped, things killed with slaves... Those kind of stats, that if made un-abusable could add an extra element of competiton to the game. The 'top' player, with the highest combined total of stat should have an Aura/Big Red Star -Just for bragging.
Timmeh

Re: Personalizable ship graphics
1 Space point for each time a NEW person uses the referral link when subbing for the FIRST time.
The problems that currently exist:
1. No easy way to figure out what the link is, outside ticket. 2. No easy way to find explanation on how the entire system works.

Re: Personalizable ship graphics
It should not be on the bottom of the news page. It should be in an Detailed Explanation Of The Game page.
