Starport: Galactic Empires

The problem with infinite corp size is all of the top players getting together and dominating the server, thus causing stagnation. Contractors have this same problem.

I'd like to see a perma with infinite money. At first thought, the idea sounds terrible. That knocks out a whole chunk of the game! However, with infinite money, you can keep fighting forever. You can keep building super-colonies for invasion. That doesn't sound like stagnation to me. Also, nubs who...

Ah, he didn't write it. Read the disclaimer he added in.


Nevertheless, it was a great read.

That is very interesting. Did you write it?

1. Hannah Montana. 2. Babies. 3. Chicboy. 4. Evanescence 5. The hair style where it looks like someone pinched off a turd on someone's head. 6. Corny poo. 7. Narutards. 8.

I can crack each of my knuckles, save my thumbs and ring fingers, just by bending my finger downwards.

I have a weird donkey taste in music according to American and British society.

So yeah, I don't really mind people knowing every song I sing :D

I get that I'm dead inside a lot.

But Clannad makes me cry so much just writing the name makes me cry...

I'll test, throw me an email, deathreape98@yahoo.com

Is anybody in the beta? My username is Deathreape, add me if you will.

Secondly. Won't this affect server efficiency?

I think it should cost if it is ever to be implemented.

I agree with this.

Also, there's always the possible bugs with giving out limited admin rights.

so if you had 1000 cols it would cost 26k

I'm liking this the best.

and 1 major downside that i see to all of this... you have a corp or 20 ? (some servers have that many) you have 5 planets, and the other 19 people have 5 each also. {for those that dont want to do the math, that is 100 col in your corp} .... if you hit the /corpall ... it would only corp YOUR 5 PL...

A big problem with this is calculating the total fuel usage. It could be done through waypoints, what the system thinks is the "fastest" route, could all be based off of the player's location... there are many factors in it.

I'd say that this is a fantastic idea, but don't make them available through pubs. People with money would just keep buying till they get the locs, and the locs would never be sold.

I personally think that normal mines should do more damage per hit, but C Mines last longer.

It would get less tokens bought, however, for fuel. Think about it - how many times do people die not watching autopilot? Make it so they don't have to watch as attentively, and less tokens are used. Windowed mode will also make it so that it's easier to pay attention. With alt+tabbed, you don't hea...

propwash, that makes absolutely no sense. If you're using it to scout an area, then you would visit every system with or without this. However, with this, there would be less repeated hops, meaning less fuel used. If you're talking about using neutrino scanners every hop and scouting the system, why...

How would this increase fuel usage? Wouldn't it decrease it because of going over the same systems less?

When I first read the title, I thought it was about using colonists as a bomb.

Easier way to get this.

Get the game supported on Xfire...much less coding involved! :)

500? I doubt that 5-20 players will kill all of them...unless they are very scattered.

If all in one system....hello lag.

I believe that Wine can force a program to a certain resolution. I never tried it myself, but I saw some people talking about it. An bleh, Pidgin. Pidgin is nice only if you want to be logged into multiple protocols at once. Personally, I only use msn, so I find aMSN much better. It's like the offic...

Actually, I run Ubuntu, and when I alt+tab, it just brings other windows above it, it doesn't minimize SGE.

So instead of having to clean pollution, you log in once a month and all of your colonies are fine and dandy?

Being a Linux user myself, I'm ashamed at myself for not knowing that Wine also works on OSX.


Wine is able to run most Windows program, although there always that occasional trouble program that won't run. I heard that GameGuard won't work in it, or was it Punkbuster... I cannot seem to recall.

What about people that remake their account because of account deletion?

Be more attentive of what you type and you won't have this problem. This is one of the major ways to get intel from an enemy player or corp.
