Hi,

How to define shipnames for others races, not just the one you play?

<t> Hi,<br/> <br/> How do you manage to refuel in space from a ship to another? I only manage to refuel from a supply ship, and if it is deployed, which is rather cumbersome and I dare say, unrealistic.<br/> <br/> I want to use ships as tankers to refuel 'in flight' my task force. How can I do that?...

<r> Hi,<br/> <br/> I'm confused, what is the latest patch for the expansion? According to <br/> <br/> <URL url="http://www.matrixgames.com/products/379/downloads/">http://www.matrixgames.com/products/379/downloads/</URL><br/> <br/> Version 1.0.7.1 is for the retail version, I have the download versi...

Have you tried to de-install and then reinstall? Because I don't think it comes from your turn specifically. I own most of the others Ageod games and I never heard about this problem (you can also try the Ageod forum itself for more feedback I guess)

When you say the game is a slide show, you refer to your FPS?&nbsp;

<t> I don't want to appears trolling, because I would really like to play this game (an excellent design anyway), but I can't (play it). Because even paused, I get stutters and hiccups... And I have a very decent computer (4 core, 8 gig of RAM etc.). I updated my video driver to no avail also.<br/> ...

AI Wars has also a ton of top down spaceships, if you ever need (I doubt) inspiration.

yes, I saw that too... But in base DW this was a problem, so I guess Eliott fixed the issue.

and then God created Woodman, and all was well&nbsp;[;)]

<t> Are you saying we are constantly walking on a thin rope, not far from total crash? That would not surprise me indeed. Because the civilian sector is far from being efficient in resources distribution. When you have stocks of 20.000 <insert your favored luxury here> and only 2 planets out of 30 i...

Thanks Woodman, your work is simply awesome.

I guess someone hate you though. The original artist. Or the person with a suppository fetish.

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: currierm<br/> <br/> I've run into problems with carbon fibre again. This time, I've got 9 sources of the stuff and many of those planets have 10k+ carbon fibre stockpiled. As an example, my homeworld hasn't been able to build a ship in about 6 months and there's a ...

<t> So nobody seems to be bothered by the AI races with cities of Earth as ship names? That's strange! I made a quick replacement list for my games but really, I think it should be a staple of modding to have a nice list done correctly (I would like to do that but I'm already working too much and ti...

<t> Simple rules are the best, as the AI can cope with them...<br/> <br/> - no invasion if a base is present on a planet<br/> - militias generated, for AI only, is one per 200 millions not one per billion or whatever (make the militias cost free). Also the variable should be available to modders, we...

no, yes (answers to the first then the second question)

I tend to use Paint.NET but I'm really an amateur anyway. Basically, you take a pre-existing ship from DW and then alter an retouch it dozen of times, a bit like a plastic surgeon? Or you start from scratch?

They gain strength by combat also (representing experience I guess). I have now some veterans Sol marines with 25k strength [:D]

Truly excellent, how do you proceed exactly to make these sets?

<t> This don't change much in fact ... I generally start with only small hiccups and then 20 mn later it increases to much more annoying problems. I also notice that at time the sounds have a bit of static... For example when adding components, you get this small click sound... After playing a while...

I hoped for a bigger variety of them, not just 2... Some should have the size of a planet and hits in the thousands, plus they spit acid (yes, totally unrealistic, but DW is not!)
