Re: OT: Flowers for the grave of MoM.
I'm a programmer and I rather like Python, though I've only seriously used it for one project several years ago. It's extremely flexible about what it lets you do, and it offers strong cross-platform libraries to do all kinds of things.
It's extremely good for fast prototyping, or anything where execution speed isn't critical, but development speed is desired. The cross-platform aspect is great, too.
It was quite easy to learn and use. Also since it costs nothing, it doesn't hurt to give it a try.

Re: OT: Flowers for the grave of MoM.
Hm, I was under the impression that "Stars! Supernova" had publisher problems as well. I haven't checked their site for a long, long time however. For all I know, Mare Crisium dissolved already.

Re: OT: Flowers for the grave of MoM.
Yeah but they want a publisher who will do "advances". Pay them to work on finishing it.
I do think that Stars was a wonderful game. And I would LOVE to see the new one come out, but Im not sure Id want to put MY neck out that far to see it.

The strong cross-platform libraries is what has interested me since I plan on using this ability quite liberally. I do have somewhat of a concern on execution speed. What have you experienced with execution speed. Comparable to Pascal or Perl? Do you have any references that you reccomend? My skill level I would say is moderate. I know mostly industrial automation Languages such as Ladder Logic, LISP, Pascal and Fortran. I play with C++ but I am stil self teaching myself.
