It would be handy to have a optional second coords box, because then you can automaticly change direction when you are at the MTWG, so when you are offline no time is lost. It could also be handy to escape trace probes.

Then put 5 coord boxes make another account and attack him every day.
First it is better for cheating
Then as i have always said the point of the game is being online and this make it easier, which isnt bad but the competition wont raise and will go down

I only have 1 hour time to do this a day. I have school, I have guitarlessons on wensday, my brother is sometimes on the computer etc. I cant do calculating that much if I cant be on the computer!

So stay out of the game.
Thats the point, if you cant be online you will battle offline. The points are directly proportional on the time you invest at the game.

When i was 12 and i was playing this i did stay awake till 4 or 8 am. If you cant be online just dont battle

I put every single bit of time I have in this game, and that just isnt much. I dont have a computer in my room, so I cant secretly get out of bed and start playing. I sometimes use the school computers to log in but thats almost all i can do.

i like the idea, with just having 1 extra coord box for a coord queue. It would make traveling through allied transwarp gates and wormholes faster.

if you are good, you can program a javascript for that, that gets active when the fleet arrives at the first target, cause the screen reloads then.
youj can write the second coords in the fleet info boxes and with yavascript you check if you have reached the second coords. if not, read the second coords fill them in the target boxes and submit - all with javascript.

The problem with that is the fact that alot of people (including myself) are not good at programming. I remember JaM used a similar program some months back where he could switch ships between his fleets while he was offline and such.

I must agree that a second box would indeed be very handy, and as for the argument that it will help multi's well I say to you that it is pointless to stop advancements i nthis game because of the scum of the galaxy.

Just my opinion.

Wont that be cheating? He is online but he is moving his ships:S:S

So besides the online time...the strategy, your ships and etc...knowing javascript will advantage you too..i think is a bit unfair

"Don't Have Multiple Accounts"
"Don't Share accounts"

Those are the only rules. So technically it wouldn't be cheating.

It would be more of an 'Unfair advantage'

I agree with you, but it's not against the rules. I myself do not use programming, but I reserve the right to as it is not agaisnt the rules.
