Re: Why no fireworks or party on becoming Elite?

Right on, Commander! Congratulations!

As for the rest, they sound like great ideas for a mission of epic scale...

Re: Carrier Docks

This whole sequence since you asked about "redux" deserves to be snipped to its own thread in Outworld... :lol:

Re: miners are not pirate victims

In modern RL, most pirates are not professionals as in the age of sail, but rather opportunistic fishermen finding an easy pray*. For it to develop into full-blown pirate harbours like in the Somali coast (out of poverty and civil war) or the Sulu/South China seas (due to the whole region being clai...

Re: Carrier Docks

I know precisely what you mean, I was like that for two days after the surgery. Even now, I find it somewhat hard to concentrate - it's rather irksome when I'm trying to code and forget what I was doing in the middle of a thought. :idea: :arrow: :arrow: :!: :? :x I can barely wait to get off the med...

Re: Carrier Docks

In this context, it's absolutely not demeaning... it's just a synonym to "revamp".

Re: Question on speed and Railguns.oxp

How does the railgun work? A railgun is a electromagnetically-powered mass driver. It activates magnets in a sequence to create attractive/repulsive forces with a magnetically charged mass; these forces are translated into an acceleration of both elements (the railgun and the mass to be launched) i...

Re: [RELEASE] WonderWorm

Better yet, how about a player version of an Imperial Star Destroyer that goes .8Ls Now if only we can add multiple shield banks just for good measure. Sadly, the joy of flying such a monstrosity would quickly transform into shame. Were you a big guy, would you bully the weaker just because you can...

Re: HUDs as buyable equipment

I voted against: all HUDs are software lincenced by CC-BY-NC, so why pay for them? :roll: Hi, Gimbal Locke, welcome to the friendliest one this side of Riedquat...

Re: Workarounds for six old demands - including multiple las

I also wish no personal quarrels, and have no use for enemies - it's better to just live and let live... Now here is where I have a slight issue and it is not specifically aimed at you. When a person wants something to be created and wants others to do it, and all the code as well. And gets offended...

Re: Shiver me timbers!

I used to have a cat when I had my own boat, and even when he got a little crazy he couldn't (wouldn't?) do more than ruin my suntan... Then again, my skin has taken more abuse than just a sun tan; by now I think it's beginning to be describable as "tanned into a sailor's leather by the sea, th...

Re: Shiver me timbers!

After proving itself impervious to several antibiotics, the ear infection wasn't getting any better, so went to the hospital - where I ended up having a little surgery... Sparing you from the bloody details, basically they had to cut behind my ear for some extirpating and scraping. What miffed me a ...
