Been busy with a big school project, which could turn out very cool if we can stick to our planning.

Re: Tech Tree Please....
 

As I could not get the java tech tree to work (recieved a 'no class found' for main, even though the classpath was correct, and the SE4 mod wants to replace my system files which it says are out of date (likely different O/S Version). http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif
I decided to write a quick C program to print out an html Version of the tech tree.

Source code: here
DJGPP executable for Dos: here

"Don't forget ships that are retrofitted don't have supply. I'd encourage putting one where ever you have a ship yard."

This is only when you retrofit the engines AND any supply storage components; any supply stored there is lost.

A work around might be to station a ship with a quantum reactor nearby.

Fleet them together, and the supplies will be pooled and split evenly amongst all ships in the fleet at the end of the turn.

Hence, split evenly amongst all ships. I probably also should have added that if there are more supplies than will fit on a ship, those supplies are then evenly distributed to the remaining ships.

So basically then a "Fueler" type ship could group with say.....5 scouts and the scouts would recieve pretty much of a refueling?

Re: Tech Tree Please....
 

Yes.
