Okay, I just ran it under Debian Linux (Unstable), and it runs fine with minor bugs until you actually load the main game screen. From there, the canvas flickers constantly and you can't see a starmap Smile



Thanks for confirming that issue. I have only had one other report of that. Now it is confirmed I can up the priority.

But it looks like you've done a great amount of work here, definitely the best clone I've seen yet.



Thanks, but it was already the most complete clone before the current development team picked it up, so we can't take all the credit.

Is it your intention to stick with the original game design or do you intend to expand it? Expansion obviously comes with the risk of alienating the original community of course while enhancing what is available. Optional expansion should provide the best of both worlds, but comes at greater work.


The intention is for version 1.0 of Stars! Nova to be a clone of the Stars! gameplay with _optional_ enhancements. Those optional enhancements are things individual developers wanted to put in and are required to be selectable options. Any difference in gameplay between Stars! Nova and Stars! is a bug, unless it is a bug in Stars! we have decided to fix, as per the list here: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/stars-nova/index.php?t itle=Specification#Bugs



Have fun.
