There already exists as official cannon a background story to the game. - Hate to burst your bubble.

All depends if I can get off work or not - and if I want to pay the 700$ for a ticket out there - not counting hotel. Now if they say there showing a live demo - sitting us down at a computer - then hell yes - I will do all I can to be there.

- Sigh - no

Well, because of the physics calculations that would have to be done - I do not see it occurring any time soon.

Yes to my knowledge VOIP and text chat will be ingame.

No problem - I guess stuff was getting lost in translation - it is quite late here.

You still do not exactly get it - its quite limited / streamlined. A Commander - they only have to receive and pass on info for their ship, nothing else. They only have to receive fire orders from a Admiral - and then tell the Gunners to fire at that specific target, and then if necessary to pass needed information back to the admiral only. They will not be communicating with other commanders on the field. The primary purpose of the Commanders is to be battlefield aware - just for their specific ship, to adapt to their environment. They do not fly - run guns or other - their only purpose is to lead their specific ship.

Here is the smaller scale version of it - I imagine this is what the early engagements may appear like:

Exactly why I did it, so it could be used and changed around for others. - the sub command ships are for larger groups - you do not want a single admiral having to analyze a entire battlefield of 40-50 ships - it would be too much for one single person. The sub admirals job is only to handle a smaller group - they still have as much power as the admiral and can make decisions for their battle group but ultimately still answer to the admiral them self. Give me a few and I will assemble one that will probably be used far earlier in game. Especially since we are dealing with smaller ships.

Kind of already have you beat to the punch Scotus - we have here at the ACS a working constitution - albeit still going through correcting errors - then I will post it up on the forums.

This is just to give a rough idea how complicated - large scale battles will be - especially when you start using larger more complex ships with crews. Hopefully this diagram will give you a rough idea how to organize yourselves around. Hopefully it will benefit you all in the long run. Anyway - have any questions on structure - feel free to ask. Will do my best to reply soon as possible.

Not much is known about how the stars will be at the moment - however I will suppose though they will be just part of the skybox. To help with system resources - as to have a large sun would be 100's of times larger than any planet - and that is a large amount of data to process.

We already have a fair sized fleet - military police force - we will help assist in enforcing the accord if at all necessary. The ACS will endorse the accord, and if necessary, will help enforce it as well. The ACS will endorse the accord, and if necessary, will help enforce it as well.

Febuary 17th 2017 I believe is the date we have to look forward to.

Would in theory ruin a pirate in a fighters' day. Tractor em and blast em full burst of auto cannon glory.

You have me wondering now about the donor tiers - as I definitely plan upon making a contribution to the game. And as you stated yama I hope they do not add blueprints to the game, would ruin the experience of a fresh start for us.

never said we killed him - just that he fell into an incinerator while trying to escape, not our fault. Technically - I would say 48 hours would be maximum time the ACS would impose - you must remember however - that is time you are able to do NOTHING at all - or just what we have you do, maybe stamping ship license plates.

I can say this publicly however, we will be building a super max prison - for those "good for nothing" pirates. If you want somewhere safe to house your felons - feel free to contract them over to ACS Corrections - for only a small fee per day. We will take the scum off your hands and keep them locked away, and away from the rest of civilized society. We are proud to say not a soul has escaped our penal facility to date, well one guy did, but he ended up in the incinerator on his way out. -But that is a story for another day

To the best of my knowledge - it has been stated that Jump Drives will not be in the game. However other forms of FTL may be.

Cant agree more - for the size of space - it will be needed.

Look forward to seeing progress made - too bad most of what we do at the current time is "classified".

Intriguing - seemingly a large amounts of human rights violations are going on - the review board will have to take look at the case and perhaps place a warrant out for someones arrest.

You are also not taking into account that mapping & cartography is not just limited to a planets surface - but space itself. Each system discovered will need to be surveyed. This will require, at least as you mentioned, a mapping and way point ? marker system.

For anyone interested - I thought I would go ahead and bump the discord link.
