Reply to Fighters/Bombers should auto dock and auto deploy in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I'd like the ability to right click the launch button. Normal --> Stay launched or Docked Rigth clicked --> Auto launch/dock docking fighters cleans up the empire tree as well. As for fighters based on ships, I haven't had a problem with them not docking on jumpout in the newest patch. Having fighters go to the docks when there are no enemies around for XX seconds, will be a lot more usefull, as well as more realistic. oh, you s

Weapon types and "averange damage" in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I was wondering if they weapon types matter. As it is now, I really don't know the difference betwee "laser" or "autocannon". Also, the rating of "average XXX damage" is not very informative. Personally, i'd rather see a nice RPG show of damage distribution, . NOT: "Average laser damage 42" INSTEAD USE: "Laser damage 36-48" OR: "Laser damage 36-48 (42)" For those less mathematically gifted.

Yeah, i noticed Kosc's problem as well, long ship names and long ability names run outside the box. personally, i suggest making the letters smaller, not going two lines.

Well, even if that's not going to happen, Please fix the 'problem' that the cost of a ship is deducted as soon as you click the button, instead of when construction starts. Now, if you want to que up a load of frigates, you need the money for those frigates Right NOW. This means you can't que up to many ships, and need to go back to your factories all the time. If the cost of a ship is deducted when contruction starts (or preferably, during construction, like in C&C for exampl

They should at least wait until AFTER the research stations are built before allowing advanced research. It only STARTS after the station is built, but you can que it up perfectly normal.

ahh, that might be it, as I tend to sell of all my resources in one go, not really keeping score. EDIT: yeah, that's it. It sounds a lot like the planetary bombardment sound though. also, while on that topic, maybe make Shift-click Sell 500 resources/build 5 ships ??

Reply to Several factories, only one spawn point in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

If you don't build more than one at a planet you likely fall way behind in production. uhh, you mean giving eacht planet its own shipyard is to little? maybe in a high resource game, with zero ships left....but I really can't afford that in any game. I've played some multi-system maps where I had 8 frigate yards around the my 'production world' (located far outside the sun, where enemies arrive) pumping ships to said sun, but that meant I couldn't get out

Reply to Research Tree in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

omicron, in the case of the hull techs, harvesting techs and colony techs, you specifically NEED level 2 of the first tier to get to level 1 of the second tier. Otherwise you're totally correct, if you're rushing for caps. but seeing how you "need" those techs anyway, might as well grab them early, when they provide the biggest bonus. ps. I like how you now need more research stations to get to the higher tiers.

You seem to misunderstand first - With easter coming up, I predict precious little reading tim Second - With (what do you call those tri-monthly test weeks in school??) coming up, I fear i've pretty much filled my reading time. Third - I would have to go buy a good bible first, or read of a computer screen, which is remarkably difficult in bed, even with a laptop. fourth, and probably most important - I don't really care........ <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/

maybe the other races can salvage resources from the debri of destroyed ships, it would suit the vissari theme. if so, theres no reason the feature would be in the beta at all atm and will only be implemented later.

Sound bug in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I noticed a rather strange audiobug in the new patch. somtimes in the diplomacy/trade and research screens, when I click rapidly, instead of the normal 'chaching' sounds, It plays the 'raze planet' sound of something heavy beind fired off. anyone else experiencing this?

Reply to Sins Beta 1 - Technical Feedback - *Post Here* in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Thirded. However, when you focus to another object the decorations reappear, only to be gone when you pan away. Rotating doesn't effect it. ps. New patch runs great. especially fixing the infobox lag.

Reply to Jumping through gravity wells in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

agreed whole hartedly, except for the turning of thing. I'm quite sure i WILL forget to turn it back on. besides, you shouldn't build one if you can't handle the enemy there. But the enemy just jumping freely through your systems really sucks. and because of jump delay you can never catch them while they're free to blow up random things in orbit.
