Drill on the sun?! I'd rather freeze on Pluto than fry on the sun! What? How much minerals did you say? Well, Since you put it that way...

Congrats.

Try out any of the non-sponsor links Smile.

In my experience, designing the correct race for the universe is 50% of the battle.. 30% is deciding by your starting 15-20 years and the last 20% on how carefully you play and your neighbours.
Ofcourse, your skill set applies on all three parts Smile

Put it up in my dropbox folder as well
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25855891/iloverushandled zepp%20PW%20cats.rar

I'll check in a bit.

I did notice you had a .pla file.
Go to your stars.ini file
how to find it

Do you use windows7 or windows xp?
Depending on that, find out where your stars.ini file is located.
C:\windows\stars.ini in windows xp
C:\users\[user]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Windows\stars.ini in windows 7 or later.

Under [misc], add the following:
newreports=1

Also add
defaultpassword=cats
backups=99

Change the password when you next play in a multiplayer game Smile

Because it's white text on a white background for code.

I enclose the code tags in "Dark Blue" colour tags thus:

[ color=darkblue ][ code ] ### [ /code ][ /color ]

newreports gives you more detailed planet dump reports.
defaultpassword lets you open your game file without entering it each time.
backups creates backup folders of all your turns automatically.. (only in AI games).

You find your stars.ini file.
It will be in either of 2 locations, depending on what OS you use.

Just add these 2-3 inputs right under [misc]

bystander said I needed to make/earn more recourses (or some kind of stuff), but, I couldn't colonize some planets due to limited fuel. however when I saw that I had fuel cargo ships I should have used those but I had no need to. I had enough stuff, planets and ships to destroy him if you take a look at my game files below

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25855891/iloverushandled zepp%20PW%20cats.rar

please let me know what you think

A really early fuel booster design is a DD with 2 fuel pods, an engine and nothing else.
That allows your colonisers to use it as space shuttle fuel tank boosters.
Once the fuel is over, the DDs disengage and come back to the planet to refuel.

I'll see if I can reinstall my skype.

EDIT: i dont know why you have to highlight it to see it PW is cats

It's because of the look/feel template I'm using, and that particular use of white text color was never chased down and fixed.
