Re: What is MM working on ?
Yes, and yes.
Right now he's working on something non SE related, later apparently planning on making "Space Empires: Sector Wars" (IIRC we have no info but the title).
New patch is in the works; changes engine damaging weapons and makes ships that run out of supply unable to shoot, among other things.

"ships that run out of supply unable to shoot, among other things. "
??
I thought that happened right now? Current game I am using Ionic tech and when I shoot out an enemies engines (or he shoots out mine) the weapons can't shoot and the shields go down. (unless there are some supply components on board). So I just load up battlecruisers with large mounted Ionic weapons and nothing else (xcept maybe a talisman or a pdc or two).

Ussually they can still shoot. Shields go down but they CAN fire and move (slowly).

Re: What is MM working on ?
Phoenix-D,
I have to disagree. From the History.txt file (and my own experience)
Version 1.65:
6. Changed - Fighters with zero supplies only get one movement per turn.
7. Changed - Ships and fighters with zero supplies get zero shields.
8. Changed - Ships and fighters with zero supplies will not be able to fire
any of their weapons.
When engines are taken out, you don't necessarily run out of supplies. If you have a QR or supply storage on board, you can still fire until out of supplies, which in the case of a QR is never.
