It's not perfect, mind you, youtube does kinda suck as far as video compression, but you get the idea, heh
In both videos I'm using the Distant stars mod.
First vid
Second vid
Full resolution videos here - High res videos
The first video starts off with me waiting for the pirate armada to warp in.
I gave the tech starbase a limited (thruster) movement speed.
Second video is a pirate attack on one of my planets.
Let me know what ya think and/or any suggestions/tips
