Experimental RTS/Space sim Collaborative Coding Project.
The goal is to design a game with structure/settings/balance of Starcraft and scale of Eve Online(i.e. huge space battles, space empires,etc).
Though this wouldn't stop anyone from contributing code/feedback/criticism, i'll be coordinating the project.
All code/ideas should be posted in this and subsequent threads which i'll start as needed.
step #1: We will collaboratively create a name for our project.
Each suggestion must explain why this name fits the project and why its better then any other generic name.
#
# Velox et Astrum
# version 0.202
#
# version 0.202 includes:
# - rudimentary save/load capabilities using *.dat file.
# customizable savefile name for simultaneous games.
# - advanced unit training
# - extended asteroidal mining capabilities
# - moving command display to separate 'help' command, in order to facilitate command expansion
# without degrading the user interface
# - the introduction of 'civilian' units
# - reduction of bloat within 'random' calls
# - addition of 'quit' command
#

A few days ago I had a dream about the 1000 get post on this thread to be mine. I've been waiting and hoping for it to come and its almost finally here! Tomorrow! I bet it will happen tomorrow. I'm gonna go to sleep now, but before I do I'm gonna wish with all my heart that I get it. I wish you all good luck tomorrow, GLORY TO THE GET!!

How exactly are you going to get the 1000th post when Shiichan will get it? Generally the fight is up for the 999th post instead.
