oh god no. i mean, to some extent. the AI will still colonize, and will gain tech as such. but how could you generate an AI design creation file not knowing what techs they would have available to them?

Here we go, hop on over to PBW and join up:

Puke's Junkyard Wars III
Status: Game open to new players

Game description
This will be the third incarnation of the infamous Junkyard Wars. We will be accepting as many players as want to come, and packing them into a large cluster quadrant. Thanks to Krsqk, we now have a much more extensive technology tree with the new Version of the mod.

By now, you should all know the scoop (but newcomers are welcome too). No research in this game, all the technology that you will learn will be through discovering ancient ruins. You may also trade for ships to analyze. You will colonize only your own planet type (rock, ice, or gas).

as an added experiment, there will be Intel in this game. The previous two had it disabled, but we will give it a try for this one to see how it works out.

So, welcome to the challenge! JYW1 ended with the Nausea Heap victoriously recovering a coveted Lincoln V12 engine, and JYW2 is still ongoing with the Nausea Heap searching for the chassis from a Dodge Swinger. The outcome is still very much up in the air for JYW2, but lets not have that slow us down for getting the third game rolling!

(hope this doesn't put a damper on things for #3, i never hold grudges between games)

Hmm, I was just trying to do my .emp and noticed that it is not possible to get 800 race points anymore by dropping your research to minimum. Also since Intel will be on, how about if we use 2000 pts instead of zero. Or am I just a sissy?
