Re: OT: Computer upgrade advice

I recommend Maxtor drives. Unless you specifically bought otherwise, your computer is 99% likely to be IDE.

As for backups, a more cost-effective way is to snag a small harddrive and just copy...

Re: Infinitech Mod Starting

Not a bad idea, but my assumption with colonists is that they'll build their own habitations, though they're inefficient at it. The colony ship itself gets torn down to make a very basic settlement...

Re: \'Starship Dimensions\' Have you all seen this s

Kind of gives you an idea of just how stupidly huge a ringworld really is.

Re: Infinitech Mod Starting

Probably quiet a bit. Every module with a huge equation can turn into quite a few instructions. Sure, computers can process millions of them a second, but when ever module has dozens and there's...

Re: Infinitech Mod Starting

Holy crap. Well, that just sucks. I'll just need to take other measures then.

Aside from slowing the tech rate down, I imagine making the level to level increases less drastic would do it.

Re: Infinitech Mod Starting

Actually, I do plan on dealing with the constant refitting trap. That's where the idea of passive technology comes in.

The idea is, for example, that researching Projectile Weapons gives you...

Re: Infinitech Mod Starting

OK, Planet Maximum Population doesn't seem to work on facilities. Disappointing but we'll see what the next patch brings. If it doesn't get implemented, I'll stuff it in a future mod design or...

Re: Infinitech Mod Starting

Mr. Junkie, those are some fine ideas. Actually, some of them were already planned but others I'm most likely going to use. I did plan on having Farms especially provide supply with miners...

Re: Infinitech Mod Starting

Actually, yes I did look at the Proportions Mod for SEIV and that's where I got some of my ideas from. It's a cool mod and I loved playing it, but I never was keen on the idea of ONLY your homeworld...

Actually, that's a fine idea. Then make the mounts for other types of mods, like point defense or something...neat!

Anyway...I do want things that are 99%/1% chance to hit. I'd like for it to be...

Infinitech Mod Starting

Well, started rather, but it's a mixture of old ideas I had for a Space Empires IV mod that never got finished. All things considered, SEIV just didn't do what I wanted it to. For the most part,...

Re: Small Mod Experiment

I added line breaks. Yeah, table breaking ain't cool.

That would end up needing to be a call in the government's abilities with another funny ability there. I do hope they can stack that way but...

Re: Small Mod Experiment

That was one of the single most annoying aspects of MoO3. Sure, it never accounted for much of anything, but it got irritating enough to be noticeable. Then, you could just reset it by changing...

Re: Fractal Function Original/Concept Pics?

You'd be better off with some other type of primitive, as an almost flat, thin object is invisible or nearly so at an angle. Then there's distortion of the pictures on the side as it turns.

Re: OT: Game Theory/Statistics

I think I may have heard of it, but that's a bit simplistic to be an interesting game.

One of two things would happen: you would put ten in each box and break even every game, or put 20 in five...

Re: Fractal Function Original/Concept Pics?

The problem is, you'd need to make 3d models to port it to SEV. It'd be cool to have, but that'd involve, like...effort.
