Birth of the Federation

I'm just drooling in anticipation of a release of BoP that combines all the little 1.03 fixes and upgrades with it. What you and the community here have done to create 1.03 is quite applause worthy.

Got and installed the new files, everything seems to work fine. I'm sure I'll get surprised at the bug fixes and corrections, even though I know they're in there. The only thing I would suggest NOT doing is for BoP, the optional Trade Goods patch should not be installed if you are using thunderchero...

Right. So the answer is do NOT install thunderchero's new sekrat multi-installs of 1.02, and BoP 1.1, then put gowron's trade patch trek.exe into the BOPE folder, because you will get massive fail. Either change Thunder's trek.exe as stated by tribble, or just play with the trade goods giving the ol...

Can anyone tell me, with Thunderchero's new 1.03 project, and that new version of BoP 1.1, whether the trek.exe includes the trade goods 1:1 update, and if not, whether it's advisable to use that update from Gowron with thunderchero's new project install of BoP? I really don't want to mess up the in...

I think you need to have a non-aggression treaty in place to make it work Zandbergen, along with the neutral or better attitude. At least it works better for me with the treaty.

we know that damage control does not apply when the weapon damage is higher than the remaining hit points of the target. Maybe the check if the target is destroyed is performed before the damage is calculated, resulting in this bug. I don't think that's a bug, since dead damage control teams won't ...

I would like the idea of only a 10% upgrade to industry per contruction tech. Since there are a couple structure upgrades, and none of the ships are actually more expensive for the later versions, industry could be reigned in a bit more. Alternatively, reduce them all to 10% bonuses (except combat),...

Fair enough. I didn't play much better than that in the tournament either!

Thanks for updating the post Thunder. Can't wait until it's ready for release.

As much as I love BoP, I would suggest that the tournament use either the new 1.03 or BoP 1.1 exclusively, rather then using both in the same tournament. BoP changes the game mechanic drastically enough, it would be difficult to switch gears mid-tourney. Put another way, people should continue to ad...

Hey Thunderchero,

Would you do me a favour and edit the very first post to include the info in your posts on the second page about the 1.03 changes included, and how to actually run the updates/installs?

This means they'll actually build their best ships now, yes?

If so, I think we'll all be playing 1.03 from now on and calling it Vanilla.

Congrats Flocke! I'm looking forward to what you have in store for us in Season 3.

No, only effect of training is cumulative, not production, i.e more than one running facility = 1250 EPs for new ships.

Thanks for that piece of info -tribble. I had read it the same way Timmy did.

I'm playing the Fed's. If you haven't experienced the same, then likely it's due to the turns remaining not taking the WCR into account, and me not being able to pay full attention.

I still plan on double-checking, but I expect to find it working as intended.
