Hughestrog Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Hi All, quick question- can you design a ship with components that you haven't finished researching yet? I.e. new cargo ship design, but with those Mk II Fusion you've almost got completed, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixitixl Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Yes. You can even design a starship with components that you have gathered from other sources (EXPL missions, Trades with a neighbor, etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughestrog Posted January 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Thought I could- just wanted to check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krelnett_of_Kraan Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 ...It doesn't always work the way it's supposed to, though. Keep a close eye on the NUD report and call RTG if there appear to be any discrepancies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-t-akua Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 You may not have the tech in the database for your empire. The NUD database only contains those techs that you already have. However, this should work in the same way as ANZs for items you find that are outside of your research capability. Type in the name of the item exactly as it is shown. The systme should allow it. Check with Pete if you are concnerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kahless Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 The key here is EXACTLY. Not being known for my typing ability, or data entry, I have comitted the grievious sin of accidently hitting the space bar when doing my turn entries. The result was that I was told, too bad, we cannot find the item-- MK II Slingshot. We would have found a--MK II Slingshot. Notice the added space in the first item. I did not think it would be so hard to fix it so that if an item was typed correctly within a 2 or 3 space area, it would be accepted, but OBVIOUSLY I was wrong. I would think that I am not the only typing impaired individual trying to play this game. I am not interested in having anything done about past sins, I would like to see this MINOR fix taken to help others as well as myself, in the future. On a scale of 1-10, I would give this about a .05 chance of occuring. Notice that was a .05 not a . 05. Now where is my damn Bloodwine, Kahless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krelnett_of_Kraan Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 Actually, I had typed it in exactly, but there was a bug (not me) in the programming with that particular item. I understand it's been fixed now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
