Very awesome! - kunix server will get upgrade to the experimental version tonight

I think this is more aimed at AI:

Would it be possible to add an option of visiblity in the server settings and make it so that when a new player starts up VE, goes to Multiplayer that he sees all the available visible servers? Instead of having to add them manually?

Thanks,

[kyokei]

kyokei, thanks for reporting. This was bug with website RSS feed - recently we're updated it to fix another issue http://forums.atomictorch.com/index.php?topic=195.0 (http://forums.atomictorch.com/index.php?topic=195.0), but it created a problem with GameLauncher RSS parser which we didn't anticipate.
Updated version of GameLauncher is uploaded now, it will auto-update the next time you launch it.
Regards!

thanks solved

Thought I'd play a bit today... launcher keeps giving an error

I deleted the game directory + the launcher directory and still I get the message

Any ideas?

Is anyone actively playing on my server by any chance?

kyokei, we made a big progress with Mac version this week, so Linux version should work as well (native, not Wine). Stay tuned!

My my my! HERO! seriously you guys rock

If I did I would have said already
Sorry, can't say now. Maybe in the next big update? But don't quote me on this

QUOTED FOR TRUTH!

Last weekend I worked together with AI to try to get VE to work in wine but no luck... I can get the intros to load, and I hear the main menu music but don't get any screen.
Tibarn, if you are handy with wine/etc then maybe you can give it a try too?

Please close/delete this topic - I have added these details to the other post.

Original post:

- Borderless window mode
- Asteroids not disappearing when empty
- Flying debris through the map.
- turrets after being attacked not turning back to green even if rep is good.
- Civilian gear not "infinite" in starter base (new people joining won't be able to buy a mining device for example if it's already been bought)
- Zoom out more
- Camera position not equal (bottom of screen you can see less)
- More roaming ships (more allied fighters, etc), more in fleet size (for example 1 freight ship + 1 fighter to escort him)
- Dock-able planets
- Gather debris
- Nebulas
- Bigger asteroids so you can use them as cover (they reduce in size when being mined)
- Bigger spaceships that can be used as refueling stations, etc
- All ships should not be able to equip the best parts (should be limited due to ship build/ship cost)
- Ships should be upgradeable, upgrade separate slots and weapon slots and put a max on the number of upgrades. For example the Freight ship could get 1-2 weapon upgrades + 3 parts upgrades. Weapons could then be upgraded from lvl 1 to lvl 2.
- Better weapon looks on ship. Laser to look more like a laser gun etc etc.
- More ship debris flying when ships are destroyed. Debris to disappear after 1 minute?

- Borderless window mode

*This is a welcome idea

*Maybe the graphic change to a 'mined out' version.

- Flying debris through the map.

*more eye-candy

*by this do you mean permanent status?You are now the enemy..no hope for you or your friends, family, and pets.

*this would be handy, updating shops.

Quote from: kyokei on Today at 07:54:24 am
- Zoom out more

*YES...maybe even to a full zoom-out using icons to represent ships, docks ect..

Quote from: kyokei on Today at 07:54:24 am
- Camera position not equal (bottom of screen you can see less)

*low priority but would be nice.

*possibly even clan wars happening.

- Dock-able planets

*Making the planets more than eye-candy would bring more depth. Find ancient ruins,(goodie huts anyone)

Quote from: kyokei on Today at 07:54:24 am
- Gather debris

*sell for spare cash or trade

Quote from: kyokei on Today at 07:54:24 am
- Nebulas

*more eye-candy. Also can give depth to the universe(background)

Quote from: kyokei on Today at 07:54:24 am
- Bigger asteroids so you can use them as cover (they reduce in size when being mined)

*A cover system is needed for sure.

Quote from: kyokei on Today at 07:54:24 am
- Bigger spaceships that can be used as refueling stations, etc

*Similar to more roaming ships..adds diversity

Quote from: kyokei on Today at 07:54:24 am
- All ships should not be able to equip the best parts (should be limited due to ship build/ship cost)

*a tier system would slow down rushing through it all..

*maybe limiting this to a specific model of ships.

*Agree

*Realism vs Game-play vs Computer resources needed. This is the crucial balance.

Updating the current playlist: Modded Civ5, Divinity;Original Sin, Endless Legend, Void Expanse, Tropico 5.

So it appears that the current menu is stacked with Strategy, with a dash of ARPG.

How do you find Divinity? I felt so so lost in that game

Sorry for the bad topic name... I've been writing down things that would seem cool to me to have in the game:
No need to go into everything and I will keep updating the list

- Borderless window mode
- Asteroids not disappearing when empty
- Flying debris through the map.
- turrets after being attacked not turning back to green even if rep is good.
- Civilian gear not "infinite" in starter base (new people joining won't be able to buy a mining device for example if it's already been bought)
- Zoom out more
- Camera position not equal (bottom of screen you can see less)
- More roaming ships (more allied fighters, etc), more in fleet size (for example 1 freight ship + 1 fighter to escort him)
- Dock-able planets
- Gather debris
- Nebulas
- Bigger asteroids so you can use them as cover (they reduce in size when being mined)
- Bigger spaceships that can be used as refueling stations, etc
- All ships should not be able to equip the best parts (should be limited due to ship build/ship cost)
- Ships should be upgradeable, upgrade separate slots and weapon slots and put a max on the number of upgrades. For example the Freight ship could get 1-2 weapon upgrades + 3 parts upgrades. Weapons could then be upgraded from lvl 1 to lvl 2.
- Better weapon looks on ship. Laser to look more like a laser gun etc etc.

So I was thinking in order for people to actually notice that there are multiplayer servers available to have them show automatically in the multiplayer server list.

My idea is that in the server Settings file you add a field to have your server be visible/invisible. If the server is set to visible then as soon as the server is up it tells the atomictorch master server that it's alive. Atomictorch then adds the server in the multiplayer server list (think off most multiplayer FPS games). If the server is down then it won't show there.

If the server setting is set to invisible then you can only connect to it if you have the address/ip.

This way, when new people buy the game and go for multiplayer straight away, they are given a choice of servers to choose from.

The idea came to me while thinking of ways to promote the Kunix server and the second reason was that the Atomictorch server has quite a high ping for me.

And then for expanding the feature you could add a filter where the player can choose a ping range etc...

Bad news, issue is still there.
