Vagabund (VGA Planets): PHost related stuff

Improving and optimizing common VGAP settings in order to create a
FAIR and WELL BALANCED game for all players!

We are a few experienced PHOST players who search for
bugs, poor settings and problematic features in VGAP.
We discuss issues and offer suggestions how to solve them.
Furthermore we offer two optimized shiplists and many good addons
(also for THost).

Sooner or later we will convice you with our ideas. ;-)

VESAC(C)
Vagabunds Enhanced Shiplist And Combat (C)onfiguration:
improved settings for the standard shiplist
where mass and quality of ship equipment count

TLIST
The improved standard shiplist
The shiplist is more balanced. All ships are worth to build
The TList can be used for Host, PHost (standard settings) and VESAC(C)
Current version TLIST1.1

PLIST2
Standard PLIST, improved (without bugs, but a more balanced shiplist).
Some new ships were added. Current version PLIST2.4
Experience table and pconfig for PHost 4

NEW! PLIST 3.1 NEW!
Based on new PHOST 4.1 features like experiences system, new ship missions and hullfuncs,
and level-dependent hullfuncs PLIST 3.1 is a strongly advanced version of PLIST 2.4.
PLIST 3.1 updates PLIST 3.0.

PAL /PBP system
A PAL Discussion, a PBx addon, new PAL default settings and the new PBP system of PHost v3.3d

VGAP Player Index v1.0
The VGAP Player Index v1.0 (VPI) is a rating system for the economical behaviour and
actual fleet strength of a player in dependence of the choosen race, settings a.s.o.
