FreeOrion

Of course, I'm older now than when I first fell in love with strategy games

The system being fully visible...what does that mean regarding colonisation of planets? If another player colonises a planet in a system I've explored but am not present at, does that mean that I will know and be able to see?

It was strawhatguy, but haven't heard about his progress in a while.

Or share the secret to enjoying that game

Yes, doc team is definately still wanted I just decided since there were close to no posts that a forum wouldn't be needed any more.

Are you talking about using RPM for FreeOrion? Because we don't have any SRPMS for it.

Oh, just in case I didn't make it clear - could someone check for me to see whether this is happening in windows too? Just check the server while it's running, it should have debug messages, including one about receiving universe size, shape and file (if appropriate).

Yeah I usually play with random map.

I honestly can't remember being hassled much by Darloks. I have a feeling I was very good with diplomacy, but I'm not sure. Maybe just chance that I never had to run against them. I remember I found a way to almost 100% of the time get both a trade and research treaty as soon as I met a new race. It...

Just in case people are confused - this discussion is unrelated to freeorion. I'm not asking if we should have saved games - of course we will. I'm just curious to know how many people cheat...er, load saved games...when playing strategy games

I'm having difficulties with what used to be working but is no longer.
