I'm on as draginol.draginol if anyone wants to friend me on battle.net.

Elemental will have waypoints. And I'd like to see that feature backported to GalCiv II.

Lol. Yea, it was supposed to be 7+6+5+4 but it was put in as 7! (7 factorial). What's worse (for me) is that I was the one who said "Yea, just use the factorial function". Sleep deprivation.
Quests are in beta 1G. Damsel in distress for instance along with a few others that pop up if you research adventure techs.
In Elemental, stacks are "armies" but another way to think of them is as "baskets". Do you put all your eggs in one basket in a game where wizards can cast volcanoes and wipe out the entire army at once?
Esssence is your mana cap.
[quote]Tried everything I can think of to get this thing to show up on Impulse. Got Email about 6 hrs ago. have tried evey option people have posted here but nothing has worked. When I put my serial number into add registrations it says it was successfully registered. Yes, I have the show pre-release thing checked. I've uninstalled and reinstalled impulse.[/quote] Drop a note to support. They'll fix you up.
Warning: The Elemental BETA will cause permanent psychological damage. You have been warned. :)
Re AI: I haven't written a line of code for the AI yet. Right now, I'm just assigning one of my developers to write APIs for me to later use.
BTW, I don't know if this is commonly known but I am the same Frogboy that was #1 on Boneyards for about a year in the FFA category. :)
You'd be surprised what we can do without the source code. We make WindowBlinds. It skins the OS and we don't have the source code to Windows. Our goal is to indeed inject Impulse::Reactor into TA so that you can play multiplayer. Can people with the existing version of TA play? Yes. There is no DRM or copy protection on it so you should be able to play with others no problem.
How are you running 3400x2400 ? What kind of monitor is doing that?
The music has been converted to MP3 and put in the music directory.
(face palm) Guys: Listen. Carefully. Rather than talking about how much you "hate" this or that suggestion why not offer your own? If we do have a time bank option, it will be just that, an option. Don't like it? Don't use it. Similarly, we plan to support BOTH simultaneous turns as well as traditional turns. It's not an either or. We plan to have both. There's no need to express how much you hate someone else's MP preference because you aren't forc
I dunno. I tend to think sand box mode should be just that. In the campaign we can stick to lore. But in sand box, I'd like to make it so that people can play however they want.
I wrote the book. :)
I have been playing it a LOT. More than I should be. The one feature that I hope people give props to Blizzard on is the auto-matching. They do it better than anyone. It takes several games of getting beaten up but then it settles down to continuously good matches.
Thanks. And to other, THAT is a proper bug report. :)
We're doing a hot fix today.
I'm getting that too. :(

Could you provide more detail?
In Elemental, the pre-canned text will NOT be silly (except some in the beta). There will be an official announcement about this in fact at GDC.
