MIGHT is RIGHT (because knowledge IS power)

Re: rev 6193

why do i all of a sudden feel like going to pokerstars.net? it's distracting :P i asked my gf if she saw a bunch of pokerchips on the screen just now - i am colorblind and had to make sure. her response: she says it detracts from the planets themselves. poker... STARS pun intended both the old white...

Re: rev 6193

okay, before we had text labels... i just found myself visually stumbling over the new art why couldn't the "click" functionality of the replacement "buttons" just get put into the "readouts" on the left side closer to the "next" button? it's a little redundan...

Re: rev 6027

There are roughly weekly releases posted directly here as well if you want to stay more current. i would love to stay bleeding edge for you guys, but how often do the dependancies move independant of your releases? i'd hate to start mumbling about bugs caused by untracked dependancies and a fresh c...

Re: Planet stuck in Gaia transformation

what's the population of said planet? when the population of a planet reaches zero from concentration camps that has gaia it will per-round-spam "the gaia planet has terraformed to better suit it's populations needs." it's one hack of a way to skip multi-stage terraforming planets for a be...

Re: Shields -> Damage Reduction

shield disruptor/inverter//damage amplification
would give an extra bit of reasoning to using armor instead
also could take a weapons slot thereby lowering damage under unshielded circumstances

why do we not have an EMP?
disable logistics/shields/guidance/weapons etc weeee
