Mouse movement limit

Happy New Year everyone! I got one of those Acer Mini laptops and installed BSF on it and it works perfectly. Sadly better than my desktop, but!.... The mouse only navigates as far down, just past the “Game Info” Button on the main screen. Oddly, when I press “ESC” key and the “do you wish to quit” ...

Gha! As per the countless warnings and comments to the same problem in other posts.

It worked. Thank you.

Here's an update. I removed some of the weapon spam, removed a bunch of section 11’s and standardized the color from the aforementioned puke color to the dark brown. I’m fiddling with the idea to put a big beam at the core, extend its range and slightly up its duration, but I’m not sure. I’m working...

but try making a few more ships before posting
....I have.... How many are enough?

I’m only using three 26’s per arm. That’s excessive? I’ll remove the two lower ones. The puke color one stays.

Nice try, but only after you edited the text. As if you didn't notice. :P

Not admitting your mistakes is a sign of a weak mind. I feel sorry for you that you have to shroud such a simple mistake.

And with point defenses with increased ranges, you better fire a whole lot of missiles.

I think you meant, idiotic. I do see the particle guns need some organization.

As far as making a bigger levithan, I did say levithan-type.

There is no replacing the original. :)

Center of the Spiral http://members.cox.net/ltfoxfire/Spiralcenter.PNG On of the arms http://members.cox.net/ltfoxfire/Spiralarm.PNG I'm still making the sections not overlap in the wrong places and when I'm done with a structure ring, I'll upload it. I don't think this needs Aegis Deflectors or any...

alot of mirroring errors along the 5 arms of the station
Yep, kina saw that in the center and branching out from there. I wanted to post the thing before I fine tuned it.

Pictures to come soon.

They said 26s are bad and you added more?! I took it as the 26's looked rather slapped on top of each other so I organized The arrangement. I could have spent time prettying the ship design, but I didn’t. I will, however, create a similar design from scratch with more variation. If the goal is to s...

The Omicron Spiral

http://members.cox.net/ltfoxfire/Omicronspiral.PNG The weapon spam is pretty much eliminated on a structure of this size. I kept all the weapons with normal stats and will post some close-ups once I organize the center a bit better and place a secondary “ring” mid way. It is a stationary platform t...

Not all ships need to be aesthetically pleasing. If something is to be alien, then streamline and animeish designs themselves can become redundant too. This was just a quick design and in no was meant to challenge any design skills. I do however need a refresher in balancing. I’ve seen it on several...

The 26s are ugly as all hell. I agree. Hope this looks a bit better. http://members.cox.net/ltfoxfire/Omicron.png Spammy, repetetive, Circle things typically can be. I wanted to make it fun, not a work of art. I don't know how far fetched it would be to have one point laser do the work of five. The...

Actually I didn't forget about rail guns, but that was the point. And the rail guns are effectively shot down by the pointbeam. The Ring is quite fast, with a speed of 4, turning of .5 and acceleration of 1, it can attack ships the way it was meant to. I keep down loading the ships others have made ...

The point is you're not supposed to deathstar the outer hull and win. You have to make a ship that can find the "hit me" target to take the Ring out before the Ring surrounds your ships and steals your artificial gravity forever. I could have had one mining laser with the power of three, o...

Omicron Empire

It's called the Omicron Ring. It has no real offensive weapon, save for the center covering of mining lasers. All weapon damage is normal, the point defense and flack cannons have a 300 range and the mining lasers are only focused inward. The exterior hull has a 3000 HP each but the inner armor is n...
