Re: Updated the FAQ
I don't know if this is in the list of things remaining to update or not, but it's not marked with underscores, so here it is: the discussion of crystalline armor in section 1.1.2 is off; pretty much all the "half"'s and "50%"'s should be deleted. The shields from damage ability works out to exactly the same as emissive except that it stacks to a limit of the lower of your maximum shields and the structure of one component of it (minus 1).

Re: Updated the FAQ
Example: Insane gobs of crystalline armor. 150 hitpoints each, and 300 SGFD ability points total.
A weapon hits for 300 damage.
Two armors will be destroyed.
300 shields will be generated.
The next hit is blocked by the 300 shield points, resulting in an average of 50%

Re: Updated the FAQ
Correction to 1.3.3 ...with no atmosphere. Gas giants always have an atmosphere (i.e. not None), but an Atmosphere Converter can solidify them into a Rock/None planet.
I enjoy playing as Rock/None I can definitely say that an Atmospheric Converter will change a Gas/Any planet into a Rock/None one.

Re: Updated the FAQ
We've got to switch that auto narf messenger off. Frankly having vampiric were-mice welcoming people to the forum is sending out the wrong message.
Welcome to the forum anyway

Re: Updated the FAQ
Well, for a first post, it wasn't a great one. I just figured out that I was wrong. Not sure what it was that convinced me that it WAS that way... Certainly seems like a logical thing to have happen, anyway.

Re: Updated the FAQ
Posted by tomas1931 in the FAQ thread (were posts are not allowed  ).
I have space Empire IV not the gold. I purchased it when it first came out. Is there enough of a difference that I should purchase the gold for the retail price or is there a patch or are the differences modible ?
