we added nice little new link at the bottom of your message screens

there you can invite your friends to play with you so they only have to click on one link and start playing

That's a nice idea about the message screen. Now you can send easy a message to someone.

the real advantage is on the noobs side. he just don't need to register anymore. he just follows a link and is logged in !

this is how the mail looks

Code:
[b]Hi,
i found this cool space warfare online game,
you must join and fight against me.

just build two or three fleets full of spaceships (only one mothership in each fleet) and fly with an attack code to my coordinates ;-)

you can directly start playing with this link:
http://www.spacetrace.org/spacetrace.php?username=testuser&pass=test&javascripton=1&login=1

or just
http://www.spacetrace.org/
and login

username: testuser
password: test

greetings, Spaceguest

it`s not only a message.

you register an account for your friend there with a random name,
- everything automatically -
your friend can start playing right away.
this way your friend does not have to go through the long registration at the beginning of playing spacetrace and will be in the middle of the game right away.

Yes, just what jam says, mabey people will be multi to get a bonus.

We have to find something, so this will not happen. Mabey to check automatic (no idea if it is possible) the ip-adres of the players. If you see the same ip-adres there must keep an eye on the player or check them. But this is up to the admin, they know how it works.

we just want about 500 active players (aprox. server limit) ... this must be possible for a quality piece of space-game-art-work, isn't it ??

what can we do else ?

This is the best option and putting links on every place of the internet.

I have one on a website of a friend of my, he has 13000 visitors a day on that website. No idea if that link worked to get people to ST. Is there a way to see it?

But yes, everybody must bring players, and putting links on every website and forum. That's the best thing we can do, it think.

Mabey others has an option in mind too, let it know.

So, the link of ST is on his website http://www.gamelog.nl/

There stands:

Dit keer niet een flash game maar een zeer uitgebreid strategie spel. Space Trace is niet een game waarmee je 1 2 3 kunt beginnen, omdat deze game vrij ingewikkeld is. Zodra je het spel éénmaal door hebt kun je niet meer stoppen!

Translate:

This time not a flash game, but a extensive strategy game. Space Trace is not a game what you can start immediatly, because this is a intricate game. But when you have started this game and you understand everything, you will never stop again!
