[trace]

I would be pleased if anyone could answer in german, but english is also ok. Please don't answer too short.

at http://www.moo3planet.de is a german moo3 Fansite, ahm here http://www.moo3planet.de/index.php?show=show&id=176 are the german informations about the german "Orion Projekt".

Now I need Informations about FreeOrion:
Please tell me some basic things about the gameplay - and something like introduction and centres of gravity (important points that differs from MoOx).
What about Micromanagement ,
Diplomacy,
Communication
war between ships (turned based ? 2D 3D ?)
What C++ Libaries are used ? SDL,GiGi,Boost and what else ?
Is there a story ?

If you want to know more about free orion, all you have to do is read the forums. If you are too lazy to do that, then I guess these people are too lazy to tell you more about it. Enough said.

No need to be harsh Sometimes it's hard to find things on the forums, especially if you are unfamiliar.

trace, I can give you some pointers then you can write up fuller answers to share if you like.

We don't fully know where we are headed in all areas yet.

What about Micromanagement ,

There will be micromanagement, but what it involves won't fully be known until the game is complete.

Diplomacy

Not scheduled until 0.5 - check out the roadmap http://www.artclusta.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=97
So we won't know the details until then.

Communication

Not sure what you mean by this.

war between ships (turned based ? 2D 3D ?)

Undecided. Some talk of 3D, but we won't be deciding until 0.4

What C++ Libaries are used ? SDL,GiGi,Boost and what else ?

log4cpp, GL (opengl), DevIL...that's all I can remember for now.

Is there a story ?

Yes, you will find it in the story forums. There is a thread for it.

As Zanzibar said though, you will learn a lot by reading the forums.
