A wishlist for SEIV 1.42

[Sean92]

How about a Space Station/Battle Station with the ability to re-fuel ships? Transfer of supply, is what it would be called, I believe.

That's easy. Just stick the base in a fleet with the other ships.

If you have a SpaceYard in your fleet, you can stop for two turns, build a base, fleet with it, get supplied, then scrap it and continue on.

I just noticed how long my Last post was.

Sorry about that.

A little off topic from the thread.

But my wish list for 1.42 is tatical combat in multiplayer games. And the ability to sort reports.

Intel would be nice as well

Aieeeeeeeeeeeeee. TCP/IP needed first. BADLY. Conducting tactical combat, even by PBW..

Does anybody want to write a quickie program that monitors a shared drive for new turn files, then launches SE4 with the new file?

If not, I'll have to do it myself.

[Suicide Junkie]

OK, fine, I've done it myself.

This program will monitor a folder/directory for new SE4 savegames, and prompt you to run SE4 with any samegames that appear.
If you click yes to the query, SE4 will automatically be run, loading the savegame, and using your player # and password.

This only works under 1.41 or higher, so I had quite a time testing it . (I've got 1.35 installed, since it dosen't crash under WinME)
