Re: A Solid Cruiser Design

I prefer at least 3 shields on my cruisers. I get better results in the simulator that way, and lose less ships in battles.

Re: I\'d rather have MM work on AI as opposed to TCP/IP

I wouldn't suggest getting 5-8 people into an IP game. That's cause once you save the game, you will not open it for several weeks, if not months - that's how hard it is to get everybody back...

Re: Difference between PBEM and TCP/IP

Re: AI improvements

I am not sure what you are trying to say, but what I meant was: AI ship designs wouldn't be specified ahead of time by players. AI would create all the designs by itself and select 'best ones' based...

AI improvements

I noticed that AI doesn't make very good ship designs. I set up a demo game with open technology tree, so every race had all the demo tech. After I met cruisers from AI, I spent some time designing...

Re: On the Physics of Repulsor Beams

About tractor beams, when you fire and hit some ship, that ship teleports right on your own ship. Shouldn`t tractor beam move the enemy ship right next to your ship instead? 2 ships shouldn`t occupy...

Re: Difference between PBEM and TCP/IP

In IP games, one player uses his computer as the server for the game, so all others connect to him after getting his IP address.
After that it`s pretty much like hot seat playing. I like to play...

Re: Just Curious does anybody play multi-play?

Re: When You have it.......

I get a feeling this whole game is a very low budget program. There's not enough people working on the game, only 1 programmer I think. Is that right? anyone know? It sure would help to have a few...

Re: Combat Initiative...

I also think that it would be better if instead of current tactical model - 1 side moves all ships, then the other side moves all ships, we had something different. Wouldn't...

It could help to carry a few constructor ships...
