Re: SE:V v1.61 History
That's a lot of stuff that is nice to have fixed/added.
Especially 9, 15, 19-21.
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
Woooooooooooo things really are starting to look shiny~~ Shield Disruption... goodness knows how long that hasn't worked ^^;;

Re: SE:V v1.61 History
Does 21 mean that I can launch my 50 fighters in the system window and not have to wait 1 min each launching.
SEV, more than a feeling.
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
OPTIMIZE,OPTIMIZE.
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
Any idea when the patch will be released?
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
A Phong trader told a Jraenar friend of mine that it might be early next week.
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
ha ha another patch already? i just barely got my 1.58 game going 
thats so awesome for multi player fixes. and thank god for fixing unit launches. launching 100 fighters was so painfull
as for 15... is it only ruins? or are all planet status icons working now?
looks like Armour skipping is fixed, bye bye emissive protection 
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
Will BM 1.11 be save game compatible 1.58 to 1.61?
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
Great I have asked about 7 since very early on.
It will be great to be able to chose how many fighters to load or how many of anything insead of just using load all.
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
That emissive fix will be great for the balance of Racial weapons and armour. My friend's PBW game was thwarted by discovering the hard way that shard cannons couldn't penetrate emissive armour as they should!
And we are nearing another release, fantastic! There's just time for Aaron to add "Save strategies and column layouts to a file for reloading" between now and then! 
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
2nd that last remark. It's a nuisance to have to remember every game how you customized each view and if you're like me, you'll customize just about every single one of them :s
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
Yes that would be great, also having some of the views from SEIV would be good. Like being able to mark on the galaxy map hostile systems,
It will also be good when all this patching is done and we can play a game as it should have been with out always wondering if the next patch will mess up the game you are playing.
I know there will always be things to add / change but once every 6 months would be fine once the game is running properly.

Re: SE:V v1.61 History
Keeps getting better and better!! Any chance some more stellar abilities make the list, like say unstable WP auto close 
Like the added function/sys calls!! always good to see more mod/scripting functions make the list
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
So, still waiting for:
"scrap facility type",
exclude option for "systems to avoid" in planet screen,
option to "block fighters" from leaving sector during combat,
"select all queues",
option to "auto launch satellites" after construction.
[edit]
also:
upgrading the queue doesn't upgrade the upgrades in the queue, leaving a series of sequential upgrades.
when upgrading ships, it would be nice for the engine types to upgrade as well.

Thats exactly what that means.
And I am surprised Aaron even worded the function exactly as I did in my email to him.

Re: SE:V v1.61 History
Man 6 months I can see the torches and pitchforks coming already
Groovy Baby Yeah!
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
THAT would be very nice !
Hope they will do that.
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
The main problem with upgrading engines is that they do, but only within their named variety - different varieties are a completely different component, and even then, not always desirable. I personally find it often advantageous to leave, say, Ion engines on my low-cost/low-performance colonisers and freighters, due to the reduced price leading to faster production, while the larger levels of supply actually give them a greater range... and unless the target destination is an even divisor of 12/13/whatever, there's often cases when the ships superior engine wouldn't get there any faster, in terms of turn consumption, anyway.
I fully agree it'd be lovely to be able to do a 'mass replace' on components, though. Come to think of it, it'd be nice to just 'select all' => 'replace with X' which places components with the new one, up to the origionals tonnage. That would be lovely for Supply/Ordinance/Cargo freighters, engine upgrades, upgrading a warship from Depleted Uranium Cannons to Meson Stream Blasters... you get the idea.
I fear it would take a lot of work, though.
Re: SE:V v1.61 History
Me, I'd love to have the choice to place old versions of components on new ships. Currently you can only do it by a roundabout way with saved obsolete ship designs. As sometimes, cheap old-tech is good enough for the job.
