Agreed, DynSys succession games often turn Transcendence to a 2D fleet combat simulator/tactical arcade game rather than a game where you are supposed to be an individual adventurer/a small party scraping and scrounging up to survive to the end. Not to mention sorting out the loot gets painful after...

I think the difficulty of DynSys is no longer in gaining money, instead, it shifts to salvaging in hot zones and taking down Ranx/Ares Dreadnoughts for your first Kiloton Cannon/Ranx DN hull/Area Plasma Archcannon. I argue that the early game is much harder, as enemy numbers and firepower are overwh...

I am in and eager to recreate the St. Katherine's Star Massacre.

I haven't got the time to test the newest version, but can you build the battleship/battlecarrier and use those against the Phobos or are those ships not implemented yet?

I would be interested too, but the problems are 1) the graphics are subject to change (the EI freighter line, Centuri raider and the ICS has its design changed as the game developed.) 2) I have no idea how much effort it would take to maintain an online store and the cost of producing physical merch...

I used to put ships together with BSF, too.

Off the tangent @ RPC how many factions have you planned in SG00? (I guess that's the megaproject, no?)

Despite the 2-D, the ships are very good looking! Will look further into the mod later.

Yay, new modder! The little ship is pretty fun to play with, and because I am clumsy at playing the game (I now spend more time making ship graphics than actually playing the game,) my ineptitude somewhat lessened the overpoweredness a bit. The cargo-bay is really huge for an IAV, given the standard...

I spent half of my first game looking for ways to repair damaged equipment. Then I realised that "damaged" in this game meant "junked beyond recognition" rather than "repairable".

I started with 0.91, I think. It was a few versions before the EI freighter series had new sprites.

It was mentioned once on the Flashtrek forum and that is how I got here.

A more aesthetically-pleasing version of The Ugliest Thing I Have Ever Made (TM) : http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b261/mmmm123/ScreenShot151_zpse6f1024b.png The Ugliest Thing I Have Ever Made (TM) is a heavily-modified variant of this ship, in which the modifications most likely involves ripping ...

Sweet! Thanks! 2 new racers today: The sleek-ish racer with Taiidan-style quad fins: http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b261/mmmm123/ScreenShot149_zps52ff9b86.png And I present you The Ugliest Thing I Have Ever Made (TM)!: http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b261/mmmm123/ScreenShot150_zps1b883c5c.png

Racing mod graphics stalls as I can't make speedy-looking ships to save my life: http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b261/mmmm123/ScreenShot148_zps66148cd1.png The SuperVector took me two days and it still looks like a darned torpedo bomber! I am leaving this be and moving on to a new design that will...

No promises yet, but I'll see if I can come up with a few racer sprites.
