Discussion / 2.3.2 and donating

« on: December 27, 2010, 11:16:42 pm »

will there be a 2.3.2 build soon?
bought a nvidia card last week and now i am waiting for a new stable-ubuntu-build. sorry for the question, but i am a bit excited .
2 month ago i managed to get xubuntu running, but still dont think its too easy to compile the game myself.

For 225 euro / year – Intel Celeron D/215/220 1.20+ GHz, 2 GB DDR 1 / DDR 2, HDD 250 GB
For 625 euro / year – Intel Quad Core Q6600 4x 2.40+ GHz, 4 GB DDR 2, HDD 1 TB

how much "server" do all ufo games need? what would be the difference? first one sounds perfect.

EDIT:

btw. why shows this list sometimes around 270, sometimes 230 and sometimes around 180 missing licenses? sometimes unused pics are counted sometimes not.

Feature Requests / autofight and freelancers

« on: June 27, 2009, 10:40:14 am »

after a while playing ufo-like-games i am always not very motivated to play those small missions. just boring if u have to chase 1-2 aliens for a long time on a small ship and that some missions in a row.
a "autofight" option in which by a calculation the mission is solved would be nice. maybe. to not make those autofight not to easy u can have a less chance to win, less profit or less experience on those.

it could also be possible not to send a own transporter. maybe u could pay some amount of money to hire some freelancers . they get the money u the materials of the ufo.

or u could just send a cruise missile to "solve" the problem and not to risk any terror or other negative effects of a not tried mission (cheaper, but no materials as profil... hm.. even though u could argue that cruise missile are quite expensive for a small "company" like our defence).


EDIT: er..................... i am sry. there is already an other discussion about that..... well.... sry .
