Biggest PBW game ever?

Btw it's pain to manage 1000 ships, at least in my 800 Mhz computer. It'll take about half a minute to open ships/units window You can expect that I won't open it very often Is that normal in such slow computer that I have?

Nope,
Im running an Empire in RTH with some 3000 ships (half mothballed) and 1400 bases on a 750 MHz system. Takes about 5 secs to open the ships/units window.

I am playing PBW game called Return to Hell. That is biggest game I have been so far, my scores are currently over 40M and rising. It made me wonder how much scores you or your co-player has had?

For example, has anyone ever succeeded to reach maximum amount of ships if it is not limited or same with units or perhaps made more resources in turn that it had turned into negative, etc.

So far I have had no problems, except when converting resources. 1M seems to be limit in one turn / converter.

Get a new email address.

that seems a bit drastic

If his email no longer works properly, it is one of the few options available. The other is to get the company to fix it, but that is not likely to happen.

In my current game I have 1700+ ships, 16000+ units and 1300+ bases and my ship -window opens in few seconds (800 MHz Athlon TB). Only when I am cloacking a fleets of 100 ships, it takes some time (1-2 min) to do this (I think there could be done some code optimization). Heh, I will see if I reach 5000 ships and 100000 units If I do, I will take a screenshot of the scores and send it to the board

I have found that managing ships is not so hard if you develope some policies you follow. For example, use gathering points where all ships go when they are built. Keep them in fleets, not outside of them. Name ships so that you find them easily in the ship list, etc.

What I meant of reaching top limit of ships when it is not limited is that there must be a variable (word, double word or something) which is the hard coded limit for ships. Though it might be like 2 billion, so then it won't matter.

Have anyone reached a limit of how many ships can be added in a fleet (not meaning that you have 200 ships in a fleet when game ship limit is 200 ships)?

In one game I found out that ship limit counts also mothballed ships :/ So it does not help to make a huge mothballed fleet.

According to your commments it should work fine in my computer. Too bad my computer doesn't know it
