Not wanting to get left out since I have never tried the send my scores in. I tried it. Thanks alot, it locked my pc up so tight that I had to power off to get it back running. Needles to say I will not try that again. If it gets fixed in the next drop, I will try it again :VOMIT:

When it happens you can click but the only thing that happens is the turn button blinks. Clinking on anything that should do something does nothing except bink the turn button. Eventually it seems to go in to permanent wait as the turn button goes light and nothing works. Go get out by going to window and using alt-ctl-dlt to end.
I played for about two minutes before my first hang. Srceen for tech completing pops up. Pressing done or selecting new tech makes turn button go light and dark again put does not select new tech or dismiss dialog. Pressing esc cause dialog to go away and something else pops up. Again only esc makes it go away. Once all pop ups have been esc'ed out of you are dead. Turn button at this time is light. Esc does nothing, in fact everything does nothing. Only option is to go to windows and us
Actually if you launch them once the go out and come back, but if you launch them again (ie twice in a row) they can be used. I have done it many times
My first game started with the difficulty slider about 1/4 up from easy. After about 100 turns I was being clobbered by alien battleships. I died shortly after that. Defenders have no chance against battleships. Seems to me to way to difficult at low setting on the difficulty slider. So I put it all the way on easy, I wanted not to get hit by battleships so soon. I think there are still problems with what happens if multiple things complete at once. Game locked up several times
I have been playing a game where no matter how long a I leave a ship on autopilot attacking a planet, that planet always builds another ship during the turn my ship killed the previous one. This goes on for 100's of turns. How can they have that much money?
On thing I have noticed is that the blue space clouds don't move as the section is scrolled around. The planets and the stars move. Maybe it is supposed to be that way, just seems a little strange to me.
I have noticed that too, I hate having the enemy just next door.

Didn't assume it would last.
Played second game and ended up with the same problem.

There is an easy way to kill someone elses battle ships. Just click on them and press the deactivate red x. Poof they are gone. Neat bug. Works on all ships.
I too have a saved game that can reproduce this problem if you want it.
I un-installed some new.net thing and re-booted and the game installed. Who knows.
Will try to resend e-mail also
Win98SE.
Still not working for me, either.
Did what you said and e-mailed the stuff to you.
Glad to run the debug. Need instructions on how to do.
I tried deleting the space01. Still get the same error
During the decompress of the new alpha I get an error 13 Invalid data for ...Gfx\Space01.ptb. Help. :(
One thing that bothers me sometimes is after I have been playing a while (enough research to start building battle cruisers). Is that it takes so many turns to do to complete the next thing. If the projects I am building take a long time and the ships take a long time I just sit there pressing the turn button over and over, 100-500 times with very little going on. I hate to say it but that gets boring. Maybe as more is added these long lulls will be filled with other things but for now I wish
I also like making the base movment of ships being 3 rather than 1. It just seems to take forever to move a ship from one spot to another. Or maybe start with 1 and when you get impulse drives that doubles it and then hyperspace makes it grow again.
Okay I buy why I now have the transports. But what ship image should the have, my transport one or the conquered planets transport image? Right now they have the conquered planets image when they move out of orbit.
While I like anomalies, I think that maybe they should be smart. For example, the free ship ones might look at the type of ships you can build and give you something useful. Most seem to give scouts which after you have been playing a game for a while are not very usefull. A surprize avatar early on would be a great anomaliy
Playing today I had a problem where if I took over a planet via a transport, there was still a transport left with the planet. This transport when used showed the wrong graphic. (It looked like a torian transport not mine). This only seemed to happen if I had a big ship in autopilot to kill all defensive ships.
