Honestly, I think it will be more like what I've seen for exploration. You go out and find stuff like the location of an asteroid field. You then have a choice. You can sell it to the market, or you can sell it to Test. I am hoping Test will offer the most in terms of money and...

For any coordinate system to work...x,y,z, polar, whatever, you need to have a center reference point, and then two 0 angles. One is the plane of the ecliptic, the other is much more difficult, If the plane of the ecliptic is on the same plane as the galactic spiral, then just use the galaxy...

If they do move, it means the "zero" mark moves too, so you still need to account for it. For your reference, my 0 mark is pointed directly at the galactic core.

thing is, each planet will have a specific rotation (day/night) and orbital prior (how long it takes to go around the sun). You might also need to know either the sidereal or synodic orbital periods for objects that orbit something, that is orbiting a star. It can get even more complex than...

Looking at the schedule report. From what it says, planets will orbit, not just rotate. That means we will need to keep track of that if we do an app. (this is under user experience polish pass section rotating and orbiting planets subsection.)

I would still look at quantum fuel loadouts. They will be the first indications of intended range. I think 3.0 will bring better balancing, but 4.0 will be where we know for sure.

I think your average ship will be the Connie, Freelancer, Cutlass types. Able to be worked solo or with groups. I think those are all medium range ships. If you broke out fighters, the average fighter is Super Hornet/Sabre/Bucc/Gladius...so I would call them short ranged. How to tell. Look...

I would classify things a bit differently than what has been said already, but I can certainly see the logic people are using. Short range These ships are carrier based or planet/station based. They can be heavy hitters or mass produced (cheaper) ships that give you the needed firepower for...

Seems like Stargate SG-1 and the Goa'ulds

Look at how much you want to spend now, vs how much you want to save for later (full upgrade) Lots recommend a 1080Ti or just a 1080, but I would look hard at the 1070 as well. For half the price it's not a bad deal, plus the funds to your build account will be replenished a lot quicker. I...

What OS version? 32 or 64 bit? What drive is SC on?

any Test members at the IEEE PES conference in Chicago?

I am not a geek...I am an engineer....which means I am both a geek and a nerd...a Gnerk... Seriously, I would love to help out with this. I would probably be horrible at the coding (you really don't want an engineer coding if you have a real programmer available...trust me), but I can help with...

Two angles and a distance are meaningless unless you know the origin point. What you are referring to is charting a course from your location to a known point. So, to ID a location, what you want is three coordinates in X, Y, and Z, or have it as angle 1, angle 2, and distance from a common...

Test...do we REALLY want to be organized? This is my hobby, I do it for fun....when I have time to do anything these days.... Putting things on a schedule, standing up and sitting down on the clock, doing things other than to have fun (for whatever constitutes fun for you and the people you...

Still hoping for a tank

Actually, based on the "buggy" comments, I've seen some people speculating/hoping for some sort of tank. with heavy base armor. A 2 crew vehicle, with module that can add in a big weapon turret, a dual or quad turret, a missile rack that can be reloaded if more missiles are available nearby, or...
