i was always against it, but maybe many players miss the *collecting stuff*-game play in spacetrace. So maybe we should add another game objective. I guess something like this was suggested before, but here it is.

how about claiming pre-warp worlds for alliances. memerbs of alliances can fly around and claim planets for their empire. the score will be presented in the statistics. this way big alliances could have another game objective besides score collecting.

maybe it could provide a little strategic value for the alliance to build a colony

what do you think ?

I think it's a good idea... tho it would need a lot of extra programming.

not a bad idea.. but colonization.. not sure... claiming the prewarp planets with wormholes could be interesting.. maybe going from one of your prewarp planets to another one of your prewarp planets could give you a nice X2.8 instead of X2.5.. or higher.. dont matter

neat idea

Only if you can put a transwarp on them , and only if they can be taken over by other players. More fighting not less in other words.

Sounds like a good idea. Having actual territory would be really nice. And somehow your borders need to show up on the 3d display and map.

I have been probing off the edge of the galaxy to discover new planets. If i cant discover them, why dont i just take over it? I think its a good idea. Right now its all work and no play (battling for points). This would make it more fun.

Yes, that would be cool... The whole galaxy spaced up in territory of certain alliances, and they will show up on the 3D map... awesome.

You should be able to get some points out of it i think... maybe, say 50 points a day for every 10 planets your alliance posseses? Or some more ships you can build there.

Or even build stuff on it, like defenive structures, which cost ofcourse mp, or will make your alliance lose points, and if someone destroys the buildings, he gets points, and will be able to capture the planet...

we will add it anyway, but we are still thinking about it. It should add some really interesting and creative aspect to the game play.

You could for example give alliances with more then 3 members an amount of alliance MP for an alliance fleet and each member should be able to decide some of the ships that would come in the alliance, the fleet should onle be able to attack pre warp planets and other alliance fleets. We could maybe invent new ships for the fleets. And maybe it's fare if each alliance gets the same amount of MP.

that one is always an option.

But we are thinking of adding a new game objective + some new gameplay. Maybe you have some more thoughts.

For sure is now:

* there will be a new ship which is needed to colonize planets. It will place a little station on that planet

* there will be a new score in the alliance statistics: planets colonized score

* colonies can be destroyed/captured by other alliances

http://www.spacetrace.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3795&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=mining+platform&start=40

It's an old idea of mine but I suggest some new things:

- Only one per alliance.
- You can use it only on just a few planets (like 3 or something)
- It gives you rare Ore, that decreases ship building times (maybe 1 hour, depends on what you you're building)
- It has minimal defenses
- Maybe you can cap it with special invaders

Jort, about that capturing it with special invaders. There should also be, that if you dont bring those invaders along, you just destroy, gaining normal score. But the special invaders capture it, with defenses destoryed though.
