Topic. There's a plethora of assholes today, and they make psychoak look like rainbows and puppies. This thread would ideally differ from the irony of humanity thread in that it would be optimistic. Let's see if we can manage that. Oh, damn, just broke it. But it's OT anyway, so it probably can't be considered spam.
[quote who="mickeko" reply="15" id="2134237"]I laugh at your mediocre attempts at creating something large!! Reduced 71%Original 801 x 601[/quote] The other thing I was going to post isn't appropriate for the forums. ;)
Not to derail the topic here, but... Oh, wait... Anyway: Ars .
[quote]I thought of time travel in RTS years ago.[/quote] Hey, you didn't code it. ;) And yeah, holy time travel, Batman.
You're observing the tie rule in action. Since "destroyed" ships "fire back" in DA/TA, to simulate "simultaneous" combat within GC2's engine, a tie rule was created (sadly, no MAD-mutually assured destruction). The bottom line is that so long as you are bringing ships/fleets to the party that 1) have less attack than he does per ship (which in the case of the DL ships is practically always true) or 2) aren
That's not entirely true-morale is the function by which the happiness mechanic, otherwise known as approval, is generated. One way to think of it is that approval is civ-wide happiness, which is affected by civ-wide morale bonuses as well as planetary morale improvements to generate planetary happiness, at which point it is averaged by population. However, yes, the "approval" bonus tiles double the bonus

[quote who="Scoutdog" reply="7" id="2133134"]Is this a mistake, or have you lost your mind?[/quote] Neither, although it wasn't relevant to the party-->stripper mentality but the spamminess of the thread at large. It helps if you click the image...I tried to get it to span the page but it refused to stop auto-resizing.
[quote who="Scoutdog" reply="17" id="2133736"] I just sent spies to spy on my spies that are spying on their spies that are spying on me. Nothing yet from my spies. I have a headache....[/quote] My headache has a headache.
[quote]What is wrong with the postings? I simply wrote, what should be clear anyways. Fact: our server is not the problem - as far as we/I know at this moment.[/quote] Nothing. I was confused as to the relevance largely because I was confused as to who had done the posting, as well as it being 5:30am and my not having slept for somewhere in the vicinity of 36 hours, which the first and second reasons were caused by. I can only blame myself. Hopefully

[quote who="MottiKhan" reply="1" id="2132694"]The one I was looking at for myself is also EVGA and $130.00, but it's at Frys in Austin. I like being able to actually hold these things in my hand, read the box, etc. Old school perhaps, but there's just something about having it physically in hand when deciding on a purchase.[/quote] If it's the same price, more power to you. Those of us without a Fry's within 150 miles just have to make do. :P
[quote]Yes, it's integrated, but the site shows it to have 128MB dedicated memory rather than shared.[/quote] I've never known an integrated yet to have VRAM of its own; that's kind of the point of it being integrated . (Sidenote: Some laptop graphics are very funky exceptions to this rule, as they try to use the turbocache option. It's weird.) I especially doubt that the 7100 does so. It's probably just your run of the mill non-geek typo. <a hr
[quote]Right now, it's an X1950Pro.[/quote] Love those guys. Running an X1950GT myself. But it can't Fold anymore (for a long time, actually), so I "need" (read: want) something newer. For my purposes, the GTX260 c216 would be far superior to the GTS250 (aka 9800GTX/9800GTX+), but for yours, it might not be worth the extra cash, particularly as you're looking at (I believe, based on your link in another thread) a $130 GTS250 (gotta love EVGA).
Check the lengths that the timelines display for-it may be resetting it back to 0 weeks; just set it to show all (or whatever the equivalent is) and it should work. Interesting that this would occur in the bottom miniscreen as well...I'll have a look (after I wake up). Don't have a theory on that yet.
[quote]The NVIDIA GeForce 7100 video card that's installed on your computer is pretty decent, so you don't really need an upgrade there.[/quote] Actually, it's not anything resembling decent. 7100 is integrated, is it not? I think there was one variant of the 7100 in a dedicated variety, but it got rare fast. Then again, today's integrated (7100 included in that) is far superior to the integrated we had 10 years ago. Of course, that's dependent on needs...<
[quote who="Macmatt" reply="9" id="2131648"]I think he's saying to Zyx that he should think over a bit before doing something like refusing to pay his ISP. And cut Sven some slack, both him and Zyx are non-native English speakers.[/quote] In my original post I somehow thought it was Stefan posting; I must have been tired. Hence my higher than normal confusion. I apologize, Sven. It's not so much that the wording was unclear but rather that the relevance was unclear
[quote]If Iron is on Mars, where else should Uranium be harvested from?[/quote] Your...no, wait, sorry, my bad...Uranus? ;) @Willy Me likes. May comment more later. For now, need to sleep.
[quote]GTS250[/quote] dys will probably weigh in on this as well, but the GTX260 (216 cores) may be a better idea, assuming it's within the budget. ;) Though I guess one should also consider what you're running on now...

[quote]And here I thought the US education system was bad... I just happen to be British. Don't start flaming us though, as whatever image you got of us is just a stereotype. I agree, rave music is total trash, and I associate more with the USA and it's values. Go Obama![/quote] I noticed. It's why you're partially excused, in fact, but not entirely. I still think your education system is a sham if you weren't introduced to FDR via your history classes at one

[quote who="jabberjaws" reply="10" id="2132400"]I erred when I said I played on crippling, it was on painful. Are there any plans to upgrade the AI ? especially those long journeys ignoring immediate goals just to destroy a distant starbase.[/quote] Not particularly; GC2 is essentially at the end of its life cycle. You might try the GC3 suggestions thread we have going on here . [quote]You are correct about some of those
Under a minute and and a half-about 75 seconds total-on 768kbit. Didn't watch it to see if it was running full speed the whole time, but that's still relatively small.
[quote who="Scoutdog" reply="13" id="2131466"]I suppose mining class 0s could replace the asteroid system we have now, and you can already do military planets.[/quote] This sounds like a decent fix for the current asteroid system as well. There are far more class 0's than there are ever asteroids, even with all-abundant settings. Presumably being planet oids they'd give somewhat more resources than the asteroid system we have in place, though...and maybe we could
