I like Money. I think in the area of trade it will simplify the process. I vote for Cash! :D

I will throw this out to some of you art guys maybe you can make it look less like a cigarette. I have seen this used many times in games to represent Diplomacy.

Links to common topics

Ok this is my attempted to provide an index of the Brainstorming thread by subject. Fine print Just for clarification Because you posted something in Brianstorming does not mean it will end up in the game. If at some point down the road they do not include your idea into the final design of FreeOrio...

I understand your concern, so should I move the Brainstorming links into a new thread possibly in Brainstorming and make them separate from the design threads or just delete them out completely?

Well I have to admit it probably would distract from the immersion affect of the game but I really like the idea of being able to toggle certain graphical information on and off. If the button idea is to stark well a drop down menu some where else would be fine.

This is probably not the place to post this but I didn't want to start a whole new thread for this idea. I took the above screen view and added some buttons http://www.starrh.net/conbut.jpg The first button would toggle star lanes on/off the second button would toggle fleet info that is shown on the...

I'd love to do something like that. I have access to a few voice actors (and am one myself) but not so much in the way of decent recording equipment. But it's something we could experiment with. -Aq You send me an audio file as good as you can make it and I will see what I can do with the software ...

Q: will FO support an infinite number of selectable races? Not in the game, just in possible opponants. And also, will races be more or less drop-and-load or are they being hardcoded? Loading a .race file would be a real slick way to do it :-) If it becomes possible to load a race file then people ...

for number of ships, i think it would be easier on all fronts to just use ship count numbers. It's a little more stark, but it does give the most information and doesn't need any mental decoding. If you have 18 ships, it's just a colored triangle with "18" inside it. I would agree leiavoi...

I like your solution Tyreth, the smaller stars seem to make it look less cluttered.
