I'm thinking about doing a playership version of the Heart of Gold, from The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.....the old version, from the TV series (the Movie one isn't as good)...

Would anyone like to try making a 40-faced graphic?

It's quite hard to find pictures of it on google..but here are the few I've come across.

Uh...I would put more, but can't find any.
However, this vid has 3 shots of the Heart of Gold:

1980s, I think. You can buy DVDs of it if you look in the right place. :P

Now, we just need to use the new overlay capability to make an Improbability drive.....take the stuff from the in-system travel bit of G.O.D mod, and put random overlays over any nearby planets/ships/stations when you use it, and sometimes randomly blow up ships/stations nearby.


Imagine....warping to the St.Ks arcology.....to find that Incandescent has turned.....into a giant custard pie......

Oooh ooh! (raises hand) I'll help!
Unfortunately, overlay's only work on ships, but you can switch one station for another or just paint a station overtop.
Mr coffee could be a useable device and I think there was talk a while back about a 'point of view' gun too. I had a simplistic version of it working... simply shoot to make them sympathetic to your cause. :)

I think that's only in the film. I don't think the bev-o-matic made it into the BBCTV series either.
