my wishlist for SE5 would be for a hosting exec that will run on Linux with no GUI.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Sounds good. I like the % change of disabling sticky mine. Hopefully Lady Luck will smile on youe empire http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif .

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Shield Generator Damaging mines work great. There are no "4x to shields" or "Only Shields" mine warheads in those mods.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">SE4 has that, doesn't it? It has a command-line hosting mode, and it runs under Wine... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

I dunno, I never actually tried running SE4 on Linux; I've never found the need to, seeing as I haven't actually run a Linux-only box... yet! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

(BTW, you DO know there is a quote button, it's right next to that darn edit button, and much less confusing for people reading the thread http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif )

edit: this was in response to this post by Gandalf Parker... no, I'm not telepathic, he just edited instead of quoting my post first http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

My reason for asking is the ease of webbing a site. I havent tried wine yet. Would the results be just as accessable? Can you cron it?

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Yes the stupid thing is right next to the edit button. I would definetly change that layout if I could. Sorry about that.

I will fix my part of it.

I would like to be able to mod the New Technology message to add a large amount of flavor text specific to each new component, hull or facility and ideal for each new level of technology.

If you're reading this, Aaron, and you don't care to add that much 'favor text' to the stock game, check out my work on the Play by Committee game. Use 'spectator' as both the username and password. Drop me a line.

Oh, and hotkeys of course. I want to be able to play this whole game without ever touching a mouse.
