Galaxy - Making space-craft carriers and a map comment From: danielt3@gte.net Date: Sat, 10 Oct 1998 00:00:00 +0000 I was wondering what people thought would be a good way to make space-craft carriers. Namely, should the cargo cap of the carrier be used to carry the system ship? If so, how many cargo points should be used per size point of the carried ship? Also, an earlier question about the game prompted me to wonder about the best kind of universe. Seems to me that a square is a bad idea because you end up with edges. Attaching the edges makes the map into a sort of torus (not quite because the inside is the same diameter as the outside but close enough.) This kind of "ring" formation is tantamount to making the galaxy one-dimensional IMO. Has anyone tried making the galaxy on the surface of a sphere? I have an algorithm but no code... -- Daniel T. danielt3@gte.net http://home1.gte.net/danielt3/ Referenced By Up
