Re: Ship Design
sorry that my Grammar isn't up to the task you should see my spelling ... lol ... it's my only academic flaw, as my college transcripts will prove :) (3.7gpa) anyway i put the lol in there because to most people i come off as cocky or offensive - neither of which are in fact true in the -real-. ill ...

Re: Ship Design
imagine sorting through over 500 different hull types that's were your present system leads There won't be 500 different hull types. Perhaps 20 is a reasonable number? Maybe 12? Quote: ... even take just 3 stellar engines X 3 ship sizes + 3 non-stellar X 3 ship sizes, (18 hulls compared to 9 elemen...

Re: Ship Design
lol .. first off i don't mean to be brash since i'm the new guy but ill discuss this a bit more, of course there's no convincing the un-convincible, but if one would have an open mind ill elaborate. if anything here is contradicting, its lets keep this simple by making a bunch of different hulls wit...

Re: Ship Design
ive seen quite a few posts about ship design now and have my own ideas about this, first of all id like to say the slot system holds a lot of merit no worrying about what to do with that 10 units of hull space anymore. However that said, i think in its current form it has several drawbacks - 1 - too...

Re: Of Nova-bombs, Supernovas, and Toxic Terraforming.......
again without seeing the actual code i can only guess but, dont kno if its just entered wrong in the wiki but a bell curve, general requires more than one random number the results are then added, ie - not 1-100 but 1-50 + 1-50, but that's neither here nor there also ice/totally frozen opposite of i...

Dealing with Building Conditons and Queues
Moved by Geoff. Was originally in reply to this post . i would think it would be better to do a check on the queues before the building is entered into it. that would in itself eliminate the majority of the problems, ie. check if the building can be built and check if there are any other buildings ...

Re: Of Nova-bombs, Supernovas, and Toxic Terraforming.......
cool thread ... i had an idea for something similar to this a while back and this would go toward the explanation of such a technology ... i called it a universal detonator by the way and what it would do is create a small blackhole(singularity) when used, now this could be devastating by its own ri...

Re: sugustions on ship designing
sounds cool from the other post seems to support some of the more advanced features, my main experience with 3d stuff was doing some planes for Microsoft combat flight Sim 3, using ack :: gmax :: and just some basic uv mapping options, in that, turns out this supports quite a bit more advanced stuff...
