Really looking forward to this too. Some level of 'strangeness' might be fun, a sign of the first-batchers. But if the thing bends or doesn't close all the way or something... might have to wait another forever-months.

Can't get it working in Windows due to libraries. It needs sdl_gfx and I can't find a readily available binary for that, and I'm too lazy to build it.

I wouldn't worry about players of unequal skill playing against each other. If you don't want to be schooled by someone in a network game, then play local. Even if there were separate 'newbie' and 'pro' servers, chances are the pro servers would mostly be empty so the good people would play on...

Minor bug - if you start a map and hit HOME twice then press any direction, you get the "Babababa Bug".

Dutch_Cap, I've been wanting something similar. I think a lot of us do, but there are surprisingly few attempts at such a game. I find this one particularly interesting: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noctis One problem with the idea is that while we have a romantic view of this near-endless...

I'll throw my support in for a MIT style license. I used to be gung-ho about GPL until I started seeing some pretty nasty reactions to it from some developers. I really wasn't sure how something that promotes open software could be a bad thing, but after some digging I see why. Even though...

Great update! Multiplayer seems to work well. At some point in the future I'd like to be able to host my own local game, even if it means downloading a dedicated server. I'd also love to be able to chat with other pilots during multiplayer.

Are you really complaining about an extra $15 fee on a $600 order? For luxury items. Suck it up, eat out one less time this week. Also: QUOTE The next day I checked my bank account and found I was charged $583 plus an additional $40 for the fee, which I knew already, which would of brought...

Gonna +1 the Box2D suggestions. I'm sorry I can't give a mathematical answer, but here is an article on how Box2D handles it: http://www.box2d.org/wiki/index.php?title=CCD Basically, if you know something is going to be moving fast, you can turn on CCD (continuous collision detection) for that...

Go ahead and spill those ideas :) I haven't played an MMORTS, so I can't really imagine what you have in mind.

Excellent job! This is an extremely chill, relaxing game. I'm enjoying it :) Only played about 10 minutes, so no constructive feedback yet, but I wanted to shower you with praise first. Back to exploring the galaxy... Edit: Just finished my first game, took an hour :) The only beef I have...

Phew... I saw the thread title and thought I was gonna have to explain quaternions, but thankfully you wanted 2D. 3D rotation around an arbitrary axis is much more of a pain :/
