In all honesty, the only things that could get me really excited at this point woudl be an open source Iron Enigine (how long do you think it'll be before someone threads the crap out of the thing?) or Sins II.

Swing. I'm trying to call the repaint method from the mouse dragged event so that the arrows will line up, but they stubbornly refuse to exist even in the first place. Edit: I rewrote part of it and I think I know how to fix it now.

Ultimately, the idea is that it will be able to perform much of work required with making buff chains. You simply fill out the properties and it takes care of the rest, prompting you with what to put where and when. Currently, all Abilities and Buffs spawn with default properties as I have not bothered messing with I/O yet and won't for a long time. The majority of the work on this will be in the form of what I'm calling Pluggables. These are the conditional

Reply to Ship sizes (Urgent) in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

The best size determining factor would be windows or fighters assuming we're being "realistic" Regrettably, that still leaves huge variation as the Jarrasul would be miles long while the Akkan is roughly cruise liner sized. Edit: cinematic model size is probably best.

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="51" id="3478139"] If you guys must know, some guys on the Sins of the Prophets and perhaps a few other newer mod teams started teasingly calling me the god of modding since I guess I've been around forever and can answer most of their questions. If you have a better role for me fine, but I'm not directly taking sides in this troll war. [/quote] lol I really don't care. It's all hilarious either way.

Sans Lincoln in Everything Else Sins Forums

It's days like this that people commonly discuss how wonderful the vision for our country was. We have clearly diverged from the original vision of a group of states and have ended up with a highly unified nation. I simply wish to ask one question then... How would the the world be different without Lincoln? The Civil War probably wouldn't have happened, leaving two less powerful and less unified countries. What I find more interesting though is how the

That operation is entirely doable. And you can make whatever the heck you want. You just have to make it from scratch. Saying buff chains are not Turing complete is like saying transistor clusters can't be.

[quote who="psychoak" reply="5" id="3477206"] On the other hand, if you have large numbers of ships going through hundreds of entity files to do computations, your cpu's are gonna start bleeding rectally. It's not engine efficient to do such things on a large scale. The hottest processor out wouldn't be able to get Sins to run well if you gave a basic frigate a 50 file buff chain. Anyone considering the insane should take system load into consideration firs
