The engine apparently doesn't actually bring the faction rating to zero as you change between negative and positive. Insted you get really small decimals, such as your 5.8e-0059 (5.8 * 10^-59) Don't know about your other question.

looks great brad. Much better than the old low res images.

I believe that a few missions should be sufficient, but you should have no problem with starting the plot without tachyons.

Since it seems that no one here agrees with me. I'll leave the issue alone now.

Is it just me, or is earth inside of the sun. Seems an awkward place to leave a planet.

Well, you can definitely make a case that soem of charlieg's posting was immature. That said, I feel that the banning itself was pretty immature. For one thing, even if a ban was a good idea (I don't believe it necessarily was), there was no reason to make a post informing people of the ban...

Who was banned for a while? Charlieg? Please tell me that it wasn't for that last post. I have to agree that Eder's position is a little hard to understand. He asks for a substantial change that the projects main coder says would be hard to impliment. When asked to actually help...

One time in the new Constantinople system, I accidently hit a confed ship with a torpedo. There were something like 4 carriers or so. I was kind of a bit outnumbered.

Last I heard, spiritplumber has left for a bit. Make sure you get the latest downloads, but I'm not sure who will do any patching for bugs in that release.

Kill the opposing faction enemies. for confed, kill retro, pirate and kilrathi. For merchants and militia, kill pirates and I think also retros. Hunters kill kilrathi for kilrathi kill confed. for pirates, kill merchants I don't think you can get good retro relations this list is...

I've found that talons often clump together a lot when in large groups, so I like to come in from a distance of 5000 or so. In addition to my guns, 2 or 3 torpedos aimed into the main group will usually score a couple of kills. In this way it is possible to take out around 2 to 5 ships per...

If they worked the way player mining does, then wouldn't they depopulate the astroids quickly? Or would the astroids just respawn?

If the ships come one at a time, shouldn't it be possible to control a jump point easily with even a relatively small fleet. With a reasonably equiped fleet you would always have numerical superiority whenever there was an attack. How was this problem dealt with.

I'm getting a similar problem. Some jump points will ocasionally cause a crash. I made copies of the stdout and stderr if you want them.

Is there a free program that you would recomend? At the moment I don't feel that I am serious enough about modelling to pay for one.
