Me and my friends fully support your game and will be making it our next major LAN game.
That's always nice to hear :)
I had a question about what your priorities are for the next update right now. My friends and I would really like to see skills and races in the game as well as on board combat.
My biggest priority for the next update is to add mob to mob fighting. And perhaps skills. Doubt there will be new races any time soon though.
We also would like to see some different tasks that can be done on the ship because we don't always have something to do for everyone on the ship(Edit: drone controll, hacking, cloacking, crew teleporter systems?).
Yes this is someting I'm constantly thinking of, from the start of development. Though I don't think I'll be able to add anything new (drone controll, hacking, cloacking, crew teleporter systems) in the near future. But I will add them eventually.
Maybe new enemies like rebels?
This can be done using events and mob/ship AIs that are available in a0.7. But I don't have the time do do it myself.
I know there are some players that plan to transfer events from a0.5 to a0.7 to get a MMO server on a0.7 version.
Maybe you can contact them and together make new stuff(like rebels ;) ).
Anyway, that's just some ideas but you don't have to do anything with them.
All ideas and suggestions are always welcome.
Keep doing what you're doing,
Thanks! Will do my best! :)
