Capture mechanics suggestions

[mirroredwang]

1. Capture bar correlates with HP bar: Undamaged units just like normal, stuff with 1hp can be captured immediately

2. Buildings in construction can be captured immediately/at great discount EDIT: Clarification: Buildings IN DECAY MODE not attended by builders

3. Tweak the energy costs to capture things, maybe use faction traits (sera harder to capture since they are aliens)

Sera: harder to capture (ayyliens)
Aeon: Unchanged
UEF: easier capture (simple, no fuss, no overtly complicated system, all standard parts
Cyb: when the capture bar is you don't capture the unit, the unit captures you

Jokes aside, might be interesting, capture is almost never used as it is

Cyb: when the capture bar is full you don't capture the unit, the unit captures you

This, but on a serious note, somewhere capture can use a little buff i guess? maybe still not as fast as reclaim, but it seems to take very long now or am i mistaken ? how much longer than reclaim does capture actually take?

Capture is faster than reclaim for lot of thing. It depends of the price of the unit.
you will convert a facto faster than reclaim it, same for pd.
only the capture range is much lower than reclaim range
