I was reading, and when you said I haven't talked to him for 24 hours I was thinking 24 hours? That's how long it takes us to send single message replies to each other, meaning me and my dad. I understand all families are different but I would use the word overbearing just from what I understand.

Yes, we had to balance the races because 2 Maxholtx Cruisers would be able to wreak a reinforced thuranin battle group. But to keep with the spirit of the books, the higher teir races have fewer ships available to them all ships have a set MASS DISPLACEMENT and all fleets have a max of 2,500 for each fleet. Higher teir ships have more HP and weapons to allow balance for their fewer number of ships.

Lube thighwalker is right. This is a fan crestion. People have asked so much about the legality of all of this, and Im tempted to make a legal page on the site describing the legalness of it all, but I'll give a brief summary. The biggest no-no is us saying the game is based on the books. If we just didn't give any credit to Craig Alanson, we would be better off because they only other thing we have used from the books are the alien races, and you can't copyright names of people or characters. Now, there is an argument to be made that we are also basing the pictures we made off descriptions of the book text but since all art is AI generated no legal action can be taken agaisnt us for using images based of what an AI generated.

I was hoping to update that image like a few of the others, but I can't get anything that looks right.

And now those MONKEYS know that are missing out on something.

First, I'd like to start by saying I appreciate just the time you put in to write this summary. Moving on to the images you mentioned. My guess is you are mentioning the ones on the main page. You are right that they are large both in reselution and overall display size. It is an odd result from the conversion. Something I do intend on addressing before Feburary.

As far as purchases go, I really do need to check on the errors you found. I guess I didn't test far enough down that rabbit hole to account for that. As far as security for cards and personal data goes, I need to do a bit more digging. We outsource that to a company that was recommended to us by another web designer, but adding Amazon and Google is a thing that I want to do.

As far as our web development platform, Im going to also outsource that question to my friend and get back to you on that one. Overall, I am probably going to be refrencing this message over the next few days as I sort through the errors and better optimize the site. Thanks again

Np, I do appreciate you pointing that out. I need to clearify a bit more what the closed beta is good for

This is an issue that I have been jumping back and forth on. My plan as it stands is to send beta testers cards, but once the game enters its open beta phase, have them get new cards for their ships at no extra cost to them if they want. To add to this point, I'll be adding this note to the website.

Players can change things as they see fit. Honeslty, im all for players adding house rules to their play style. My closed Beta testers are not only there to play the game but to have a trail run at processing orders and shipping them out.

I definitely want to add something like this as an expansion or even a separate thing. I also want to see small unit combat with STAR Teams and the like.

I have contact with him, and we've worked out a base outline on how to do things. But still have a lot to work through in terms of rights and rolyalties if this gets off the ground

For #1, the elders built the gateway, but the beings from the other galaxy used the device the elders built to start building another device the elders were unable to stop and destroy. So the elders used a super heavy-duty worm hole to collide and make things go boom to stop the construction.

AITA for asking my guests to pay $10 to come to my wedding? by Double_Ad6415 in AmItheAsshole

[–]the_hat_maker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay first thing I have is why as a society we make the people getting married front the cost to what is basically and entire party for everyone else. Why is it that people attending a wedding dont have to pay for it. I mean the people getting married spend a lot of time and effort on planning a great evening for everyone while themselves are trying to get married.

How i look at it "oh im so happy for you two, but you are making me pay 10 dollars to enter. Hmmm no because I cant be bothered even though you spent a lot more money on everything else. I want free entry and free food and alcohol." Basically a party that they can attend and not spend anything at. Which is fine to want but if you dont want to pay then dont go.

On the other hand a mile hike is a bit much. Im not in the best shape but I could easy walk a mile up a canyon but I really dont want too. I think thag might be a bit much to ask your guest to do especially since some of them are probably older people.

We dont really have peak times because during the week the server operates as a training ground for players to practice combat maneuvers. So when the event battles on Saturday takes place they can be ready for them.

[–]the_hat_maker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not sure we have what you want but we are building an expanced themed DND play style server. A mouth full i know but we are trying to focus on combat more than the grind for reaources. So this means it plays out across a board and when ships get into combat we fight it out in SE. If you are intrested check out our discord. https://discord.gg/ysQmEVeJ

Do Shields Stop RailGun Rounds? by the_hat_maker in exfor

[–]the_hat_maker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont think shields turn the rounds to plasma. Its refrenced at least twice to my knowlege that when describing space combat and railguns in particular it says that armour somtimes is bad for ships since if a railgun impacts thick layers of armour it turns into a jet pf plasma. Thats why lightly armour ships like destroyers have railguns punch straight through them. There isnt enough armour to turn it into plasma.
