Re: Sourceforge will purge our builds
I reckon we "need" only save 1 win + linux + mac build / year, or something. If I remember correctly, robn did builds every night, or every time stuff was merged. I remember we had the "luxury" problem of only being able to make one release / day (since release was date stamped)....

Sourceforge will purge our builds
robn notified us that Sourceforge told him they will remove our old builds on sourceforge. He will not take any action, thus it will default to purge.
Do we want to preserve any of these builds?
If so, to where?

Re: Feature request: Change avatar in game
Yes, it's in the back of my mind. But I personally haven't had motivation to code in a while (read: +1 year perhaps). Lua isn't any more difficult than Python. Lots of tutorials. For a pirate BBS advert, you'd basically copy-paste code from the current face selecting code, into something that looks ...

Re: Feature request: Change avatar in game
You set your avatar when you start a new game. My thinking is once we get a pirate system, there will be a BBS advert to wipe your history clean, get a new name & face & ship registration. Not sure what mechanics we should use for ust changing clothes. (Less "smell factor" in the s...

Re: Galaxy on Fire 2
What would be, say, the top 3 things to bring to Pioneer?
Elite 3 Frontier: First Encounters, had story mission, that ended up giving the player that cool special ship. I'd like to see some missions give player unique equipment (we have the code for it, just no mission that make use of it).

"We’ve removed the four-pole composite video and analogue audio jack from the board."
Buuu! That's how I connected it to my CRT TV/monitor.

Re: Suggestion: Additional player logs
Got me thinking of Dwarf Fortress, where the whole point of playing seems to be to then share epic story / log of unbelievable things happening, and building up a rich and deep story.

Re: Additional player logs
So a stats-tab? Why not? Note: the three tabs is a hack because we already had three tables that stored data on each jump, as of several years ago, but they were never used for anything (I think they were meant to be there if any mission scripter needed them), so I just barfed them out to three tabs...
