Well, it's not so much as being generous as being ignorant. While I know my boss knows I surf the net in my spare time, I don't think she realizes how much stuff I d/l, especially for this game. I don't flaunt it, and usually hide teh screen when she or other office workers walk by. Like I mentioned in another post, one of my co-workers is getting canned, partly for personal e-mails at work. That's one thing I don't do. But as long as I'm not forbidden to d/l files, I'll keep doing it.

Feedback for the beta guys:

I'm not sure if this is a bug or intentional, but I just crew-insurrected an Earth Alliance DN which had a design type of "attack base". Its components were consistent with an APB/SD dread with all the ship type components supporting. It was just wierd seeing that for the design type.

I will consider an upgrade for your dial up guys.

Slick, thanks for the feedback. Do you have a file you can sent me? I'm a bit puzzled by the problem.

I was under the impression that AI designers use the type "Attack Base" to make attack ships that specifically will not join fleets.

Maybe. I have processed a few turns since then but I think the DN may still be alive under my malevolent dominance. If I do, I'll email you the file tonight.

Yep, and if I'm not wrong, Rollo was the first to use the "Attack Base" ship design to create Scouts.
In the other hand, think I'm the first modder to use BA as standard ships in the late game!

No problem, then. I just thought it looked strange. I have played TDM for some time now and apparently never noticed this before.

BTW, before the "final" 3.40 is released, would it be asking too much to have a consolidated file of all the changes? Or will we have to check each of the readmes for all the different races individually?
