Catch-all for all development not having a specific forum.

Getting these missions up and a drone AI for Allegiance would be a good way of training people. If it were at all possible, we could create scenarios of sorts for training, and have CDTs/squads use them.
Nans are happy people. They fly around, give out repairs, and overall have a lot of fun. Why are we killing them when we can learn from their example?

I think the only thing that would be a neat addition for miners would be to have the ability to clear the miners order queue.(Maybe via those nifty context menus)
Apparently a California "cabin" is any place more than 4 blocks from a McDonalds.

Say, why not make miner ships and escape pods available to the players so that the He yeild is higher and miners are less dumb???

But then, the people in the miner ships wouldn't have anything to protect them... /huh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh:" border="0" alt="huh.gif" /> /unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":unsure:" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> /doh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":doh:" border="0" alt="doh.gif" /> ...hm.

Well thanks for volunteering to sit by a rock for the entire game instead of defending the miner(and getting some action)

Not to mention that people would "rush cash" and have their entire team launch in miners to mine out every nearby sector in a matter of minutes(because there is no way to limit how many of a pilotable ship can exist at any given time)

good idea but not a fix/replacement /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

You just make human miners cost 10k each.
