Interview topic: Mission Creation

You've posted a ton of great feedback and ideas about the upcoming GA. Now is your chance to personally interview the devs behind the expansion!

Post your questions about mission creation here by 10:00 am Thursday 3/19. Our developers will field the best questions and send their responses!
That was a thread on the US spore forums just about 4 days ago. The Community got to ask questions about the Mission creation in Galactic adventures. I will bring you the answers and questions aswell!

I picked out the most relevant. Seeing as there was 22 pages of questions 0.o:




Q: Will the Creator be able to Create Cutscenes?

Q: How many Parts of a mission will there be?

Q: Will the grox have a chance to be involved in the adventures we create?

Q: Can you do missions on earth or do you have to make the planet from scratch?

Q: How will adventures, planets and captains be integrated into the Sporepedia site? What kind of preview do you get when you click on an adventure?

Q: How will the adventures be seeded into the Space Stage, with regards to placement? Where can adventure planets be found, is it possible to have more than one adventure on the same planet, etc.

Q: In the expansion, will it be possible to make custom planets without missions? Or are adventures required to walk on a custom made planet?

Q: There was talk that Maxis made a lot of new flora, but when are we going to be able to make our own flora. I think the community would really make gorgeous flora. (to put it mildly).

Q: Will we be able to link missions together, as some really will try to make epic stories that requires a lot more then 5 acts?

Q: 'If' an underwater expansion will be made, will the adventure editor be updated so those also can take place underwater?

Q: In spore we except the flora we have misc things like rock formations, giant skeletons. Will we, in the future be able to make such things too with a editor?

Q:: I have seen on one preview that you can put miscellaneous objects (such as bombs, grenades, treasure, etc.) in your missions. Will there be some kind of Miscellaneous Item Creator in GA?

Q: Why was GA delayed back to june?

Q: If I upload an adventure that has content that isn't shared on the web-end server for one reason or another, will said unshared content be automatically uploaded with the adventure or be replaced with a different piece of content that is on the server?

Q: Will there be other editors included other than the captain editor and the mission editor.

Q: Are you able to incorporate tribes within your mission? I had ideas that included tribes on a planet.

Q: In a series of quests how will you be able to tell what is first to last?

Q: Regaring the cutscene making that is hopefully in the product, will you be able to make a movie, instead of missions.

Q: Are you able to beam down to planets that have not been designated a 'mission planet' such as one's home world? I would like to be able to explore planets that have not been created by the editor.

Q: How will the mission creator handle that fact that someone might not have all of the creations required for the mission? What happens if you ban or remove one of those creations from the game? What happens if a required creation is removed from the Spore server but the mission that requires it is not?

Q: Are you able to ride vehicles on the surface of the planet?

Q: Will the objects be physics enabled?




And That’s around 1/10th of all of the questions asked.
The thread got answered by Maxiscactus:
