If we do this can we have helium levels update without docking? I heard the technical argument against this way back when but thought I'd see if it might be possible as part of this change. Have them update whenever you hover over the sector on minimap? Kind of a nice trade-off for the miner offense whores.

I third this and approve everything if it has toggle switches.

I disagree, abstain should count as yes.

This will so make gameplay better.

I like it, but...example.

Half your team is alt tabbed looking at porn, happens so often in pugs. Some random noob posts a resign because you won't let him have a basic bomber vs mini3 heavy ints. The resign passes even though you have battleships researching.

Great changes, no need for toggle at all.
However, I do expect the 3rd idea to be the source of a lot teeth grinding among the troops, when flying for unexperienced or just not very careful commanders in the usual pickup games.

Well as we talked ènought about scan ranges:

WTF do u loose ur $#@!ing ship when tec dies ? Go to hangar and ur pretty nasty advs fig or hvy int disappeared ??? - that is really annoying.

Esp if u have a htt - game ends for own stupidity giving away last htt maybe for nothing.

Not mounting 3rd mini on ur hvy int is annoying me too every time...

Cant that be fixed easy `?

God I hate that. Or when you launch with no booster because you lost booster 2/your sup.

Or when you launch with 3 nans in cargo because you lost your exp (and hence, your prox 2).

But hey - care to follow some of your own advice re: thinking before talking? Or would that just be too hypocritical? /glare.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":glare:" border="0" alt="glare.gif" />
'Realistic' has the same weight as 'more realistic' when we have no realism at all.
Classifiable up to Trolleomorphism.
