NeilGartner Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Greetings! It's not hard to tell that I'm new around here but I'm a fan of PBEM games and SuperNova looks looks like a real winner to me. The only problem I'm going through is the overwhelming learning curve of this game. When I first saw the Turn Entry Program, I almost turned off the computer to walk away. Thankfully, with some determination and searching for helpful information on this forum, I'm getting a hang of it. However, I couldn't find any lists here to help explain all of the Order Codes definitions on the TEP. So I took it upon myself to type these little buggers out. Be seeing you around galaxy.

NeilGartner Posted May 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 How about ftp://ftp.rollingthunder.com/supernova/SN...ment%20v250.pdf? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I knew that was going to happen and I thought I looked everywhere.

ali-t-akua Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Neil, there are lots of helpful people here on the forum so if you have any questions, ask. Many of us have been down that same steep learning curve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of us have been down that same steep learning curve. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thanks and trust me, I'll be asking plenty of questions as time goes on the further I get into the game. For now, I'll be turtling and building my empire up. One thing I don't understand is why the Order Supplement isn't part of the Rule Book. The two walk perfectly hand in hand and would have made my first turn experience less hair pulling. Actually, I have a question: I have a couple moons in my system for a source of fuel. Can I order my ships into orbit and skim for fuel all in the same turn? Thanks Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobknob Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Yes you can do it all in one turn. Here is what I do. place colony beacon on planet/moon that is good for refueling build skimmer ships create convoy route as follows SKIM OC pop group #XXXXXX You then assign you skimming fleets to this convoy route. Every turn they will skim fuel and drop it into a pop group. Then you build a tanker to go pick up the fuel and take it to the HW or where ever you want it.

Thanks Neil <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, NM (1 ap) plus SKIM (1 ap). 200 tons immediately upon execution of skim order with one fuel shuttle at a gas giant. Lesser amounts for different atmospheres.

ali-t-akua Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 You can also skim your homeworld but mileage varies based on your atmosphere and oceans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughestrog Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Skimming Fuel Should give you more details on how to skim and the values (amount of fuel) recovered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
