Hi all, a few months back in summer i started working on a Modded additional campaign. For the most part i can say that it was doable, the main issue was more so the work load, it simply was too much for me singularly to handle within the constraints of a hobby and with school and other occupations demanding time. That being said i did feel as though it was a worthwhile effort, i had a pretty interesting narrative and campaign mission scenarios planned out within the limitations of COADE's simulation(I even managed to get a working level). So this is more of enquiry if any others are interested in helping out, the main slow down was predominantly on writing the levels as my coding is not very fluent and while i understand orbital dynamics i don't breath it mathematically which hinders things somewhat. So mainly i would be looking for at least one other person to help out with writing the levels and then some general volunteers for difficulty tuning and testing for any latent bugs. I know Kerr might be interested and im putting this out for any others. I think its pretty clear that developing new content is the key to prolonging the COADE sims endurance, and if i had no other jobs and was perhaps more of a code monkey i would try to one man the project.

The Astronomer Rocket Witch you are both quite active in the modding scene, your talents would be of good use helping this CDE project becoming reality one day.

I can help with the coding portion if needed, as I have done level editing already. Also can help with testing and ship creation.
Can't do writing though, and I may not have many ideas for overall level design other than simply having real interplanetary combat, with foes and/or freindlies at multiple locations.

You said you had some ideas for a narrative and campaign scenarios, but I can lend a hand with those. I can't help with the technical side of things but I do write stories.

I think I might be able to help with CDE's simple coding. Just provide me with all the resources I need and I might be able to get your stuffs in place.

First off thanks to those who replied! Specifically to apophys and The Astronomer, thanks i think i will primarily ask you two as you are both pretty experienced with COADE in general and in regards to code. I will leave this thread up just for anyone else who might be interested and ill star a private message group a little while later today and give you guys a brief summary and overview of what i had finished and what i had in mind.

For anything more involved I would prefer to work on my own ideas, but I can contribute to testing when the time comes.
