Werent there a idea that cross-categories dependencies would be quite rare. In per category shown tech tree, such dependancy could be shown with little icon and explanation. ("Requires nanomachinery theory from construction")

How I'm looking it now, Graphically I stand for pre-modelled, static 3D-shipmodels. Just because I rather see very well designed and polished spaceships, than have quite certainly messier looking dynamic models. If I had a crazy budget and slaves to spare, I would love to see something like city-of-...

saw them and I liked the immersive background picture with scientists and stuff. But it dindt define much how the tech tree should be shown.. I think split to under research/possible to research/already researched and subdivisions for each category works better than dividing them to theoretical, tec...

Needed suggestion for tech-screen UI

Gentlemen, Time to work this out, our programmers need things to do. I'll do my sketches on next weekend based on stuff discussed here, so collect your thoughts :) In how many parts screen should be divided? How to visualise technology images - realtime 3d or stills and with how big resolution? How ...

Good comments. Noelte that vertical line idea is very good one. Weakness of those not-chosen resources is because of my poor lcd-monitor, will be fixed when on better monitor. Breadman, I like the clarity and touch but it needs more thought - also you have to show somewhere if balanced focus is chos...

One on the left is just the old ui that I had as reference when sketching.. just ignore it and look at the fancy things on right side. Those number down there which miss the icons, are infrastructure, health/enviroment, happiness and security meter values.

something to show at least ./

Been very busy week, anyway, here's updated sketch on sidepanel/planet info. I'm quite happy with the layout. Those bars under resource values are their meter-values. brightest is the current, then the current max and then space for it to grow. Should grown expotentially (bar moves smaller amounts w...

I just have to get my move arranged, still much unpacking and organising to do, on next week you'll have new sketches to see, I promise :) Wait a li...

About races in general, early thoughts. Graphilly are some archtypes that I would like to use. Important: stone-biologic-mechanical-insect and then fish/flying-lizard?-energy-cyborg .. or combinations of thoselike stone-energy, or mechanical-insect races. We have at least shiptypes: low-tech metal, ...

Looks good. I would love to see them as militant, mathriarcal-faschistic aestetician warlords with enchanced cybernetics to allow direct communication with their ships. A step more dangerous race of space-babes :) Edit: "Everything on this ship is directly connected to my nerv-system, you men h...
