Damn, this is a good game! But one thing, how do you build shipyards? I have researched the technology to build them but they are not avaliblr to build in the display when you click on a tile on the planet.

click on the spaces left of ur planet, that will allow u to have the 'build shipyard' option

one thing I really would wish for in this game is that you can send your ships to a certain galaxy without actually commanding the buggers each step of the way (it kinda gets old fast if u got more than 10 ships) I would like to click on a ship and say 'move to that galaxy because im a lazy Bas$%$^' and let the comp do the rest.

by the way - if you like this game check out Freelancer (on google.. its not an old game but well worth a look)

DOSBox.

We really should have a popup that appears whenever someone first visits the site, offering the words, "Whatever you want to ask, the answer is DOSBox," with an appropriate link. Would save time.

Indeed that and the "why are some games not available for download" response...
That being said, I'm amazed at the patience of some people here who keep answering nicely, e.g. The Fifth Horseman :thumbs:

We have been playing with the idea of DosBox internment/concentration camps for people (mandatory 2 week stays for new sign-ups), but we still need to secure funding from the "re-education through labour" people...
