Re: 1.7 Alpha 1a Update

Theoretically, it already does that - the Benedict storyline forces the player to carry out Raisu Station's mission against Vaugn, which provides the player with some missiles. That is not correct: I've managed to get the mission without even meeting raisu station: being forced only happens if you ...

Re: Homeworld-style Adventure Study MKII

Once I finish updating PSD7, it should be complete enough to be a Beta, and feature most, if not all, PSD6 had. [...] I plan to finish before April 21, when George features Playership Drones on Twitch. What is your current status? Sorry, it seems on hiatus, or could be considered dead, as I don't k...

Re: ICS is too weak than Phobos

I managed to take down the ICS with an enhanced starcannon back in 1.08b
But I considered that difficult.

Why is this exactly?
The Nerefir Carrier needs it's GFX updated. Have you play-tested your demo level/minigame in the past two years?

Re: Monthly Mod Jam — February 2016

I'm glad to see some life in the modding scene, especially as I've been absent from the community these past 18 months.

Seeing as the last post by the OP is over a year ago, I'd say MP2.0 is pretty dead...

Re: Homeworld-style Adventure Study MKII

TVR, I think perhaps I have the wrong version of mothership mod, could you please attach your current version to a post in this thread? Feature request! With the new mining system, we have single use scanner items, perhaps another type of automatically deployed ship like the salvage ship, equipped w...

Re: The story that literally blew me!

Hardly.

There are many great stories out there, involving spacecraft and civilization in space.

Bug in interface:

Inside the [F]leet Command dockscreen, there are two entries triggered by S: hipyard and Launch quadron.

Re: Official Transcendence Teamspeak Server

I have three displays on my main machine, I think it's trivial to have a main display plus a side display for IRC.

Re: Poll: Do you play with the soundtrack enabled?

I wish that the soundtracks had better spacing, and the battle music had stricter triggers, like player takes 10% shield damage (often it starts without you haven taken any damage when you can 1 hit an enemy ship, which is annoying since it resets the rest of the soundtracks, too often).

Re: Let's Play Transcendence!

Hi, I'd advise you to keep going through the starsystems, many new stations, some with rougelike elements and some civs with special hidden questlines await beyond St. Kathrine's star. Arguably, the game doesn't really begin until the arena. Is it possible for you to upload at a higher resolution? O...

Re: Superior AI without actually writing AI

I vote for solid code now.
We can always make several variants of inputs/outputs and see which ones learn more quickly.
