Re: Affordable Hosting Sites

I've been using www.hostgator.com (http://www.hostgator.com) for a while, so far I've only had one problem and they resolved it as soon as I asked them about it. It's a bit more expensive than what...

Re: Ship AIs that talk to each other

I think implementing this only makes sense, although I think it has been implemented to a degree already. I asked MM if he could fix the overkill option that didn't seem to be working, and he claimed...

Re: More bizzarre mines...

Perhaps he placed mines where he had cleared your minefield, but the game got confused about the fact that they aren't your mines anymore. Have you tried moving over that sector?

Re: Kwok\'s next Mod

1. This would have to be done by MM, since stellar manip components are hard coded. Planet-over-planet also has to be fixed by MM by only drawing one of a given size of planets. (I wouldn't want only...

Re: \'Space Empires Universe\' (spaceempires5.com) N

The site seems to have returned again.

Their server isn't the most unreliable. Garrysmod.com used to go down on a weekly basis for days at a time. At least spaceempires5.com only rarely goes down.

Hmm... the beep codes for AWARD motherboards (which a biostar is) are quite varied, so I can't find what that exact code might mean, but it should be happening every time.

Re: OT: Massive computer problem, help appreciated

It sounds to me like at least one component on the board, or the board itself (unlikely) went bad. That long beep is a BIOS Error code. Different motherboards have different codes, however, so I...

Re: Windows XP or VIsta For New System?

The 32 bit version of XP has a lot more support for just about anything, and very few applications have embraced the 64 bit era. I'd suggest sticking with 32 bit.

Also, I see that you have a Core...

Re: FQM Quadrant Shapes

Re: FQM Star Brightness

How would single hex stars spread out the distance between planets?

Personally, I prefer the multi-hex stars. Stars aren't small things, so they shouldn't be as small as planets.

Re: Weapon Platforms

No, they aren't. They take damage evenly. (Lies! They tend to avoid my damage... or am I just paranoid?)

You can make precision weapons with damage types only capable of hitting WPs, however, and...

Re: Any chance to have the AA \"bug\" fixed some day ?

Re: Any chance to have the AA \"bug\" fixed some day ?

For me it's the opposite. AA works fine, although it causes some slow down (5-10 FPS), but AF causes a major hit (20-40 FPS http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif ). If I disable my...

Re: Atrocities - SE:V Trek sets AIs

Try rewriting the AI from scratch using a data system that almost totally requires two-dimensional arrays. It hurts. Badly.

Re: \"x\" Overloading weapons

No, they can't. Special types of damage override the damage percentages, so even if you give the weapon 100% piercing for all shield/armor types, it won't pierce.

Re: Planet Value Percent Loss After Owner Death

I'm pretty sure this handles what happens when you glass a planet (destroy everything). This should be how much the resource modifiers of the planet are reduced by this action. A 100/50/75 planet...

Re: Spaceyard bases?

Spaceyards - level 10 and higher

This gives you the spaceyard component that you can put on ships and bases.

This should give BaseBonus at levels...
