i'm currently scratching my head like a monkey doing a math problem trying to figure out how i can stick in running lights hehe

reading other peoples code without them there to explain what they were thinking is a pain.

Well..... I'm not. I can't program. Styxx has to explain simple terms to me on a regular basis.

Ooh! I know what we need!

Kill that stupid one ship docked limit!

If someone could point out a MAX_TABLE_SIZE_LIMIT = line for me, I could fix that.

I made a program in my class the other day that rolls dice on the screen in DOS (16 colors).

.... talent!

I made a PHP program that would roll 2D6 (It was rather simple)
But it wasn't that random (I just used the random function...)

oh.. yeah.. lol.. I don't want to confuse my suckiness at C++ with my l33tness of PHP. I can do database interaction and other PHP stuff just fine, but when it comes to Windows API and whatnot.. I'm just not there yet. I'll get an initiative to learn some day..

still don't get the whole 'turrets on sides of ships' question. The Hecate has barreled turrets, why can't you put them on the side of a ship? I think I'm missing something.

How many rotating, barreled turrets have you seen on the side of a capital ship? None. Because you can't do it right now. Doing it would help stuff like TBP quite a bit.

I get the thruster glow thing, yeah, but its sort of cheesy for adding running lights. No, I want to be able to specify a specific PCX (or ANI) file that lets me put running lights on ships. They blink. If they can cast glows to the surrounding area....thats even better.

Considering that modern video cards can handle 32 or more light sources, as compared to the 8 that most FS2-era card can handle, having actual light glows from some effects would be cool.

Oh GOLLY.... I'm browsing the IRC logs and now this

I was in for a surprise.... I went to the Interplay, Volition, HLP sites just to see...

Wow, thanks a bundle V.... now all the things we could do to it (FS2 in teh Iwar style anyone? Although it might be faster to do that in Iwar...)

I'm still trying to get over the initial shock *pants*

Shrike, say what? Most weapons in FS2 already cast light, as do warp holes.

Before everybody gets all crazy with expanding FS2, I'd like to see a version that does nothing more than fix the known bugs.
