    Hi everybody,

    I just wondered about a kind of STARGATE. I searched on the forum but i didn't found any post to make a proper stargate to transport units between celestial objects.

    It could be posible by 2 ways:

    -First one: Destruct/Rebuilt units

    --->Departure SG destoys the units selection and save it as a "do list"
    --->Arrival SG acts like a factory, the "do list" is rebuilt instantly with no mass cost

    * To choose which gate act together a "DIAL" button should be set (as in TA)
    * Each transfert must cost energy, no energy no vortex.

    Possible issues: -commander cannot be transfered this way (because factories can't build it)
    -ennemies gate can't connect together (i think it could be funnier and more strategic to allow ennemies SG to work on the same network.)
    -Second one: SGs teleport units

    ---> In front of each gate: a "jump zone"
    Each unit in a "jump zone" is transfered to the destination "jump zone" when SGs are connected.

    Technically the same "programming way" as unit-cannon (seen in the PA trailer) but faster and with an unlimited range (skin would be great this way, wouldn't it?)

    Possible issues: -Need of an adressing function to choose which door in the network to go through
    -SGs musn't belong to any faction to connect each other
    -SGs musn't have self destruction (strategically unfun)
    -Construction: A new unit could be created with this mod: A Gate Installer (mix between Asteaeus and engineer able just to set gates)

    -Destruction: SGs must be very robust, but if destroyed... Nuke explosion! (many energy inside)

    So, what do you think about it?
    I hope many enthousiasts will implement whith rich ideas.

    In case of copyright issues, an other skin could be used, like huge transfering rings (goa'uld technology indeed).

    I really think this MOD could be a big tactical garnish :)

    Uber planned to introduce teleporters where you need to build the entrance and exit.
    It would be really fun to add neutral teleporters which both players can use.

    It would be incredible if you had to capture one of those neutral teleporters to move on to the next system in a galaztic war campaign.

    Wait....did I just hear STARGATE from another person than me?!?!

    Must have mod IMO.
    But lets wait for Ubers teleporting system first.
