Working on it right now! Version 0.20 is taking a bit longer to do since I added 10 new advanced traits with a bunch of new techs and/or re-arranged techs plus gaming time divided between the beta and my regular pbw.

I don't think 0.11 would make for good pbw-ing but 0.20 will. Maybe in a week?

So, how is it ? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Space Food Empires - Version 0.11 Available!
 

I hope do give this a go over this weekend. I have looked forward to this Mod for over a year and now no time to try it out. I already know it is a good Mod considering who made it! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Space Food Empires!
 

Probably better with a good sauce.

Re: Space Food Empires!
 

Well I've entered/re-arranged all the new entries from the addition of the new racial traits. Now to make changes to some of the other data/ai files to eliminate those pesky error messages.

I think the current history list has about 60 changes/additions on it thus far!

I'm aiming for early June for this version rather than May as I had planned. Mostly due to the little Space Empires vacation I've been on, which was broken by that pesky Star Wars mania, and has reeled me back in re-motivated to complete my task. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: Space Food Empires!
 

Hey, here's an idea for v0.2 or so:
- Change all the normal system backgrounds into tables or picnic spreads. Gas giants become pots and pans, rock planets would be plates, and ice planets could be bowls. The star can be a fancy candle in the middle.
- Storms could be forks and napkins.
- Nebulae and other dead systems could be carpeted floors, grassy outdoors areas and such.
- Black holes could be a grassy field with a big anthill in the middle! The ants drag your food ships away and eat them http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Space Food Empires!
 

THAT is a sweet idea. Or, if you want to keep this in space, maybe make it a gigantic Juicer built by ancient malevolent aliens? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Also, see if Atrocities could allow you to add the Monsters Race - as mold and fungi. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif You could use Trooper's "Mushuns" shipset ( http://diesel2035.free.fr/mushun/index.htm )

Re: Space Food Empires!
 

Thanks for the ideas! I'll be keeping things set in space but I was interested in adding some sort of 'monsters' at some point.

Version 0.20 is almost ready to go, the new data entries have been put in so I just have to make sure I didn't introduce any serious bugs and hunt down a few of the little ones plus fix up the basic AI again since some I made some changes that made them invalid. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

I'm also looking to add elements of SJ's and Fyron's happiness and pollution effects for 0.21 to 'spice' things up.

Re: Space Food Empires!
 

im not sure it if it isnt already included, but you should have Fyron popular pop-modifers at any rate.
What is pollution btw ? Or were you meaning population ?
