On a similar note, I think it'd be quite handy if the fighter/bomber build/dock page also had buttons to select all active fighters or bombers owned by the selected ships, so you could issue orders easily. That would be nice!

With all the nonsense in here I was wondering if we will ever find intelligent life on this forum?
Even though it seems to be a bug, I like it how it is currently. It speeds up the game a bit for a human player, and more importantly, the AI will break out of it's star system eventually now. So, I would rather keep to current system and change the research so that it speeds up long range jumps, which are very slow at the moment. Add me to the yes vote on this one!
One thing I wish we had was the ability to assign fighters to protect certain ships. as it sits my fighters go off after bombers wherever they might be. Can it be set up that fighters protect a target from bombers rather then running after something else? I would like to keep a fighter squad (or more) in reserve to protect a certain cap ship from being plastered by bombers while in retreat. Perhaps a "protect target" mission button or setting? It could be that a carrier has th
I would like to see the sources where you get your information and conclusion that "in 2 decades time" the development of AI will exceed human intelligence and capability. From the research I've done online and info from reputable resources, I see a sentient AI far from being able to match a human's ability. We already have a very tough time trying to get a AI to respond to human facial gestures and so forth (this is still being developed at MIT). <
Duh, you cant trust any news person, its all brainwashing propoganda paid for by Washington. Excuse me, I am not in Washington I will have you know!
and the first true desk top was in the 60s by non other than radio shack. Radio Shack ?!?!?! Wow. I pity whoever bought that monster. Thank you for the pity... I miss my tsr80 color computer. My mother bought it for me in 1978 for $3,000.
err, that is when they were made cost effective for mass production, we had gps back in the mid 70's and that was when I used it,(one was built into every parashute) it was around long before that. as to lap tops, we had them back then too... I saw one in use onboard U.S.A.F. "looking glass" at Offitt AFB in the fall of 1979 it cost about $60,000 and did little more than check the systems of other computers on the plane. (plus it had a picture
try with in the last ten years for gps and 15 for lap tops. err, that is when they were made cost effective for mass production, we had gps back in the mid 70's and that was when I used it,(one was built into every parashute) it was around long before that. as to lap tops, we had them back then too...

You two lovebirds make me need a nap. excuse me, what are you talking about? I seem to have dozed off while reading.
fuzzy logic A superset of Boolean logic dealing with the concept of partial truth -- truth values between "completely true" and "completely false". It was introduced by Dr. Lotfi Zadeh of UCB in the 1960's as a means to model the uncertainty of natural language. Any specific theory may be generalised from a discrete (or "crisp") form to a continuous (fuzzy) form, e.g. "fuzzy calculus", "fuzzy differential equations" etc. Fuzzy logic replaces Boolean truth values with degre
There is a huge difference between data input (which is binary for a lot of our body, maybe even most) and data processing . Which, while our brain cells may be binary (on or off) I don't think is binary -- they still have to decide where to send their data, after all. what you are discribing as thought is known as "fuzzy logic" they are trying to develop a computer system using "fuzzy logic" so that they can figure a way to make conputers
Personally, I prefer having the numbers. My time sense is... rough, at best. Its a flaw, I will admit. same... same here,
Thanks for the comments guys! We definitely want to leave the fleet composition in the hands of the player. It has been important to us from the very start that the player decides what strategy he/she wants to take. Even at a highter level (combat-trade-research-diplomacy). We are going to need your help understanding the core of your concern here. Does it lie in the feeling that there are only two major strategies - bui
Yay..... Sadly I am at work...... You work? Gee I thought you owned a ranch. Ya know the one that has the pink space ponies on it...

ICBMs were not that powerful back then. eerr guys... the first icbm was the atlas and was deployed in 1962, it had problems and was replaced in sho
although in the end your point is invalid as action would be taken to counteract such a collapse. such as, persay, freezing the stockmarket. The government would never be allowed to do this. Only Congress has such commercial power and seeing as it is made up of the wealthy who have a lot riding on such a stock crash and gain would be caught at a stand still of arguements. umm, sorry but there is already a la
Wanna bet? Sure, it'd probably end up passing, but plenty of people would end up objecting. I doubt it, thats why you dont see people in desperate countries crying out for civil rights, all they want is protection and food. I've got mounds of historical evidence to back up my claim, wheres yours? People will rise up. Warsaw Getto uprising, 1933 bonuus march, Atlanta bus boycott, NYC draft riot, Pennsylvai
it was the closing of the banks and the lost deposits of the people. and don't forget all those people buying stocks on credit, because even creditors thought that stocks would just go up in value. Very true!
Got Winamp? no but I will now go get it! Thank you
No, we had more expensive stock crashes, but we have never had one that was worse. Just last week the stock market lost 1 trillion dollars, that is way worse then the Great Depression in term of money, but not many people lost jobs over it. The stock market crash is not what brought on the great depression; it was the closing of the banks and the lost deposits of the people. We now insure those accounts for $100,000 each. No more run on banks, no more p
scientifical... rofl I really don't think it matters if aliens exist or not, if they can travel to our planet without being noticed by private space watchers and whatnot, then there is absolutely nothing we can do to defend ourselves. that said, does anyone know what human flesh tastes like?
Umm...actually Sins does work with the Xbox 360 gamepad for Windows.... yea, bet you can't get the pink space ponies to work on it! and what would SoaSe be without the space Ponies?
o.k., would someone please tell this fool how to open and play the music files? (me being the fool)
??? Okay, let's compare a small/medium sized passenger jet versus a B2 Stealth bomber. You think they have the same basic construction? The bomber is built around minimizing cross sections/radar signal. The passenger jet is built around fuel efficiency versus seating number versus cheapest building cost. Sure, they both have backup systems. But they both do their jobs vastly better than the other could ever do. Also Here is another e
