First I want to thank the developers for reviving one of the 3 best computer games I ever played (other two are Master of Orion and Master of Magic  )
I just found this project and it surely brings some memories - I am playing for a days again
Secondary I want suggest something , there is one small thing that was very anoying in original Star Control II :
- When the alien give you the coordinates of some world you have to hurry to write them down , in most case there is no way to make him repeat what he said like with commander on star base so you have to rely on prev. saves and have piece of paper always around.
This is a bit annoying, so I have actualy two suggestions :
1. As minimum: Make in the scripts in all cases where someone tells you some coordinates posibility to ask hm to repeat what he just said.
2. Better make "automatic log" where such things automatically logged.
Thank you again guys , you are great !

Well in version 0.3 you can always looked back at your conversation with the alien. sorta.
Lets say you talk to fiffwo. He says it and darn, you forgot to get your pen. Well you can bring that line back throughout the converation (I think) But once you have temrinated the conversation that option disappears. So you do have your feature, sort of.
Acually, for your request I was expecting internet melee. That is what most people want around here and we have a few who are working on it and I think some mods too.
O - If you really want to thank the makers of the game, email them or PM them. In my opionon that makes the thanks all that more genuine. (Not that yours is not)

Well I was more interested in second option
Also , sorry did not noticed spacebar thing in UQM , somehow it sliped my mind , probably because of speach addition 
FalconMWC - Are you sure that the best way to thank developers is to send PM ?
They probably have more importent stuff going on in their mail boxes then my thanks , I afraid it will be mmore like spam 
About internet melee ... cool thing , but remember the game have two separate parts Melee and Quest/Economics and thats the combination of two that makes it so great , internet melee is just a melee .

Your idea of the automatic log was brought up before, and I'm afraid it was shot down. It was decided that this feature would harm the game. If you don't take your own notes then the game seems less real.
Also, that would require work, though I am not sure how much.

First thank you guys for replys, meep-eep brings very good point - making notes IS part of the game expirience , the problem is that if you miss something - you can't finish the game and sometimes you even don't know when you missed it and to what save you have to return 
Well if it aren't broken ...
Btw: bad intensions aside have no hard feelings on Deep-Jiffa post I AM a newbee here after all , and I don't think it should insult me it's a state of facts.
Terminator - I am not lazy , I am just do not intend to stay here for long , just jumped in to say thanks because I just found this project.

I remember playing those old games. You might want to try Master of Orion II if you haven't already. Don't go near the third one though, it's a cat turd. Master of Magic was also great. There's a handful of MOM'esque games around but none of them play quite right.

I do declare that Guesst has been trying to fufill the final words of luki.
j/k
One other thing. Don't flame guests for not registering. I know what you are thinking but, look at the members section. 9/10 of the members are 10 posts or less. That is not impressive at all. In my opionion that is not a perspective that this foruym can boast about.
