Re: Now, be Honest

It's actually possible to list ships according to their orders (look under Fleets/Ships/Units?) but it would be nice if there was some right-click context menu so you could jump to them or even...

Hmmm, you know I'm going to just stop using the Warp order for moving to systems I've already explored. That will eliminate that particular loophole ...

Re: Black Hole! Panic stations!

I just had a second look for ships. It's pretty darn unlikely because (heh) the warp points leading to the black hole are of the really nasty variety, save one. The ones you explore when you've...

I've stuck with it for a while now.......

Damn, that's evil....

Re: Is there any real point in designating a colony as \'mining\', etc?

Does this mean we can make our own files, so the ministers are actualy useful?

Re: Range Attenuation!

I like the idea of Emissive Armour actually turning away some damage. Remember the Excalibur in the Crusade series? Deflects 90% of incoming weapons energy. I would give my right arm for a ship...

Re: New option Idea for SE4 - Surrendering

Re: Newbie question!

If you research Resupply tech up to max, you can get a pretty cheap and small quantum reactor which generates endless supplies on ships. Once you have that you'll never look back at them old Supply...
