Default Re: New Game Idea... Capture The Flag.

My main problem with not having planets is that there is no way for in game communication between players. Of course It can be set up so that you have a planet for communication purposes, but still make the flag be a ship.

And there are a number of ways to deal with the maintenance problems, and still use stock files. Although it would be a trick to come up with a way to deal with the maintenance issue on one hand, and yet keep it a part of the game on the other. What if the flag was a ship with several robo-miners on it. As long as you keep the flag you can generate resources to keep your other ships going. Lose your flag and your ships rot over time.
