Well,the NPC fleet battle will always be a popular event.A fleet of 10-15 NPCs versus half dozen or so real players meeting in a neutral system.Could restart when all the NPCs are gone or vice versa.Could add NPCs as the battle rages. Actually,one of my favorite things to do is find players on planets using Tacops.Not quite sure how that would work in a script though. Another possibility is having everyone in a fighter for some old fashion dog fighting. Have to give it some more thought.

By the way, if you get roped in to repair or build any more AMD systems, there is a ton of info on the AMD website such as this PDF

Man, I guess they are writing everyone off this season. First Nina Myers,then Chapelle,and last Sherry Palmer. But I have to admit,Sherry Palmer deserved it. I wonder who is next? Season finale next week.

I would like to add to 'incoherent ramblings', but I think Denny said it all: Best Wishes.

Maybe Gateway made a smart move in buying Emachine.If I'm in the market for a laptop I may consider it. Thanks.

Sorry,per your querry, in all cases if you lose a craft you need to buy a new one. Any craft tractored can be taken to a star station for credits. Thats it as far as I know.

It got really annoying so after 4 disconnects I stopped playing for tonight. I hope it's working tomorrow so I can become addicted to the multiplayer in this game. I can verify that. It was NGM,ShoHashi,myself,and B McGregor. Seems like as soon as space combat would start,or shortly afterwards,everyone would get 'Server Disconnect'.Happened several times.Sorry,didn't have logging enabled,but if interested let me know. Edit: That's right ,only server logging is possible. Sorry about that. [ 05-14-2004, 11:24 PM: Message edited by: Cc ]

Anything new to report? Any hope of not 'being redundant'? At any rate, good luck and best wishes. (Still want to buy you an ale,or two. Maybe someday.)

Sorry dudes... I am 'fairly sure' you could care less... but it looks like Robson will be on 'Reckless' ,BBC America May 21. Not super bad, I saw most of it on our local PBS station a year ago. Prety much a soap opera situation.He plays a doctor who falls in love with his bosses' wife. More to it than that,but definitely not as good as some of his earlier series. His best roles are as a detective/investigator ,eg 'Touching Evil' (Now remade on USA network), and as a criminal psychologist, 'Wire in the Blood'. He was on BBC America a few weeks back in a show called 'Trust'. Had to do with a high power legal firm in London. However,the show focused on how the lawyers long hours of work,and ambition, screwed up their personal lives. Kinda interesting,actually.A different perspective from American telly. OK.

Me too!

If you can not record at 10:00 EST, check for repeats.Possibly at 12:00 on Monday, or maybe it will still be on Saturday morning. It was on Sunday at 10:00, don't know now. Check the USA site.

I realize I will be blasted, but how about an interim RC? Yes,I read the VCF everyday. I will now 'siddown'. [ 05-06-2004, 06:35 PM: Message edited by: Cc ]

BTW ,it looks like 'Touching Evil' is moving to Monday. Just in case you missed that.

quote:Originally posted by Krill: Hi i was wondering if there was any Cheats for Universal Combat ? Thx Sorry,dude. Your only hope with UC,at the moment,is the -i command line parameter,which is invincibility. However,in BCMG, the /cheat parameter is still effective,which allows all kinds of neat things.I use it strictly as a 'time speed up'.Just so I don't have to wait all day for mining drones to fill up. Please, SC ...how about a limited /cheat in UC? (Maybe someday???).

quote: Was that fleet GBS2 On your website, the 'Fleet script'. You did it right after the special script for 'Epilison 5'. You remember,he complained that combat was too easy. BTW ,up late tonight? (Edit:tomorrow) Didn't expect a responce until tomorrow,if then. quote: I'm in the middle of porting the old ACM with extras to UC and putting back TOD4, trying to make each TOD last over 24 hours (each mission to be about 6 hours) so that by the time you reach the latter missions your crews AI should be high enough to use those Artifacts you have collected.In that case...thanks for the hard work. quote: someone nicked that idea and used it in UC.Oh yeah? Your fleet script was very intensive.( I never made it through ,anyway). [ 05-04-2004, 03:11 AM: Message edited by: Cc ]

quote: [From Pugwash] DonÔÇÖt tend to watch that much TV any more it's all rubbish, repeats, soaps Just checked the BBC.CO.UK website and I have to agree. Seems like 'Eastenders' is the only show on.(BBC America had 'Eastenders' on for quite a while,watched a few episodes, not that bad for a soap opera). OK....If you are bored (which you probably are not),how about converting your very excellent GBS2 'Fleet Scenario' script to GBS3? Please ...Pretty Please... Edit: You may need to to reduce the intensity a bit for UC.At any rate,please consider it. [ 05-03-2004, 08:54 PM: Message edited by: Cc ]
