Reply to SoaSE dual screen support? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I use a 2-monitor setup for designing (me = future engineer) and autocad is a lot more userfriendly with 2 screens. As for Supcom, It would have been a lot more usefull if you could actaully plot waypoints, patrols and properly target enemies on the second screen. Would have been nice if you could SEE the waypoints and patrols and ETA reading on the second screen. Would have been nice if the first screen could somehow jump to where you click on the second screen (like minimap)

Schem, you're a spammer and NO, you can't bwahahaha. (for those lacking old-forum experience, i managed to get this screeny before it died, the blank image is where my avatar pic is located) I'd better point it out now, before people start thinking I stole my name from the planet, instead of the other way around. Also, when you see Planet Alcari around (and it's not a toxic wasteland) I expect you to guard it with your very lives! <img src="http://marcelmuske

Reply to MARKET MANIPULATION??? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

well, if everyone's primary resource is someone elses secondary resource, I imagine you could do some manipulating. (asuming primary resources gather faster then secondary) you could trade between allies or you could "tighten the market" by buying up a lot of what is your primary (even though you don't need it) to limit your enemies supply of secondary.

ehm, aren't solar systems usually in flat anyway? still, there might be elevation in it, the wierd thing is that some of those plants share orbits(not impossible, but odd) and that some planets overlap in orbit (very strange, wouldn't they hit each other?) but, I must complement on the extreme improvement over the cartoon, concept-artish first batch of pictures.

starting at the bottom this is oversimplification of our industry to its largest pieces of course it is, that one is meant in jest how come we have the top 3 colleges in the world in addition to most of the remaining top 20? as for tech I haven't heard of a big tech-based industry in EU for a long long time. the best I've heard are a bunch of smaller software creating groups. no, those aren'

Europe has this one thing the US is lacking in increasing ammounts. money US economy is one hugely inflated bubble of air. It's all powered by european money. If "the old world" pulls it's money out, your precious world dominating power would come crashing down like a deck of cards. You realise you own a total of 10.4 trillion dollars (that's 1.000.000.000.000 dollars) to foreigners (mostly europeans) second thing europe has is Knowledge hightec

Reply to real scale between planets in Everything Else Sins Forums

it all depends on how well you isolate your small city. I'm suggestion more of a space station setup here. The hole should be sealed, shielded and insulated. Nuclear power produces sufficient heat and energy to last a long time. One could easily support several millions of people in a properly constructed city. Don't forget that we still have plenty of water to hydrolyse, to create O2. For example, take a look at Biosphere, just replace the sun with artificial lightsources. I'm not

Reply to galaxy cluster Abell S0740 in Everything Else Sins Forums

10% of space full? you can subtract a couple of dozen 0's from that figure. Long rant coming up, skipping to the end is advised Also, space IS that colorfull, you just can't see it. (huh?) That image is a composite of a lot of different pictures, all of which have different shutter times, focus etc. As suns reach different mass, they reach different heat levels, which in turn gives of another color. (blue=hot, red=cold) The color also depends

You talking to me? i didnt complain though If you got a problem talk to MY MASTER huh what? someone said something? Gun, I asume since the sizes are given in meters, one can asume the guy sitting in the cockpit (though probably note shown) fits inside his craft about 5 times (ie, is 2 meters longs) also, providing you dig a deep enough hole, you could also grow plants in there, if you have artificial light

Reply to Random civilian ships and civilian starbases in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

player(s) will end up having to create shipping lanes for the transfer of goods and what not from planet to planet and system to system. this one's true Tradeships fly ingame from one planet to the other to generate income for your empire. It's unknown if this is standard or if you need a speciic buidling, or need to invest in trade lanes or vessels. we do know that these tradelanes are disruptable and thus need some protection.

True, but Galciv is turnbased, which makes a huge difference. also, I find the supcom beta running much better then the beta. probably due to removal of analysing tools. Well, it might be due the dual core, but I think it runs pretty smoothly and works very well. The AI is smart enough not to keep throwing stuff at my inpenetrable defences, and try a different route. But even when I made a horde of infantry bots (as in 500+) it still ran smooth.
