You're avoiding my points, Fyron.

Just for clarification, how many times has this occured? Can ANYBODY recall an instance when Fyron admitted error?

The closest I've seen him come was in the About BOB thread:

Did you see Andres' post right before yours?

He didn't actually admit it, even though there wasn't a way out of it. (Notes: intervening Posts removed to make it clearer; ordered as the printer-friendly view would make it.)

I did a search for Fyron's member number (1794) in the SEIV forum for "I'm wrong" and got two hits - neither of which was Fyron admitting he was wrong; they were both him quoting someone else. Further, "I'm" and "wrong" weren't connected; they didn't constitute a phrase.

So, I did a search for Fyron's member number in the SEIV forum again for "I am wrong" and got sixteen hits. The sixth (in the Converting Domed to No-Domed thread) resulted in this post:

It seems as if SE4 is now converting atmospheres to that breathed by the dominant race on the planet. When did this change take place?

Again, he doesn't admit he is wrong; he claims outdated information instead.

Another hit in the Revamping SEIV Ship Hull Sizes & Features thread yielded:

Interesting. Personaly I think that the accuracy mount should weigh the same as the LR mount, similar principles involved just different application.

And what would you think they should weigh? 125 or 150?

Concealed mount seems a little Uber. Tonnage 25%, structure 100%, and damage 90%? That is one hell of a damage ratio you're offering, and they can double as internal armour.

Hmm... I may have reduced the wrong trait. The hit points are supposed to be 25%, not the space taken. The concealed weapon should take normal space.

For the pre-fire bays, how are they working? have they tested out all right? I remember the problems with adjusting seeher range through mounts (it doesn't actually affect the characteristics of the seeker) but will the seeker launch even though it will wink out of existence?

They are designed against missile dancers and such. You can fire the seekers when they are out of range. The seekers move in, and hopefully hit them when they come in range to fire at you. If they are out of range when the seeker arrives at its max range (regardless of the mount), the seeker just disappears. No big loss, fire more! They would be more useful on Bases, which can't move to combat the missile dancing.

Edit: P.S. I noticed that you aren't intending for the AI to use any of the special mounts. Are you planning to keep it that way? If not, how are you planning to balance it?

I am not entirely sure. I might have them use the Heavy Mount because they can not react dynamically to a player using lots of emmissive or crystalline armor. The Heavy Mount is designed to combat such ships.

The portion of interest: "Hmm... I may have reduced the wrong trait."
It's about something he specifically did, and the most he will admit to is "May have" (the tenth hit on the search, by the way)

In none of the 16 hits on that search is Fyron saying "I am wrong." In the ones I don't mention here, he is saying that someone else is wrong, or "that is wrong" or he's quoting someone that uses the word "wrong" et cetera. It appears to be a sentence that hasn't passed his fingers in the SEIV forum.

Jack, this is starting to go too far and is devolving into character assassination. I ask you to delete your previous post. If you refuse, then I ask a moderator to delete it (and then this one if a moderator deletes Jack's post).

How is it character assasination? You said:

When it is a situation in which I was wrong and not that I just worded something poorly, I always admit that I was wrong.

All I did was dig up some of your old Posts where that wasn't the case. Anyone could repeat the search.

[Roanon]

Its not entirely untrue that you have a problem with apologies or admitting you're wrong Fyron And censorship is not the correct way to deal with displeasing informations.

But you BOTH should stop it, right here. Before it gets worse.

Ok, this thread has run it's course. I'm sutting it down now.
