How about more options during startup?

July 25, 2002 3:22 PM from

I'll add to the whole "Ship Range" debate by saying that I really hate having so many debris, asteroids, gas nebula and other "Goodie Huts". Sure the AI doesn't use them and it lets me build a really kick-ass survey ship, but it also detracts from the strategy aspects of the game the same way that ship ranges do.

Thus - why not let the player choose if he wants these things during game set up? Maybe an advanced settings button or something. Unlimited ship range? (Y/N) Goodie Huts? (None/Rare/Common/Abundant) etc, etc.

Might add some complexity to the AI, but it would get all us whiners off your back!

Michae,

You may have missed another thread that mentioned that the AI still isn't hunting the anomalies very well. When it does it will change the complexity of the game.

And, your idea for an option for the number of anomalies sounds is one that would make the game more challenging.

Cheers,
Jack
