It of the travellers to be replaced =)

[promethius2]

I don't like "it" of the travellers.
I find that it serves no purpose because it gives no points and lets face it hardly anyone goes after it anymore i mean half the alliances have 0 as a huntscore.
But i have a good idea to replace it and for once it will give you no points lol

As you know there are about a million pre warp planets that also serve no purpose in spacetrace and it annoys me to think that there are millions of little free furry cute things living on those planets (i mean you just want to colonise them dont you! it reminds me of the feeling i get when i see an ewok or pikachu and all i want to do is give them a kick lol)

So anyway (ignore that) how about the last person to travel to a pre-warp planet controls that planet (except the nebula, pulsar and hole) now instead of huntscore beside alliance it will say number of planets controlled by alliance. And the good thing is this score can go up AND down.

Now this part of my plan is OPTIONAL and i dont know if it sould be accepted so if you don't like this part we will forget it.
Lets say that every planet that is enslaved offers 100 mp and this is shared throughout an alliance so if you have 10 members and control ten planets every player will be given an extra 100 manpower. So let me know what you think.

Before i leave this topic open for you to debate i want to emphasise something
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO LEAVE A FLEET AT A PLANET TO CONTROL IT! you only have to travel to that pre warp planet once and then you control it. Someone else can come along and claim that planet by traveling to it and then returning home.

Also, it should say on the alliance statistics screen the names of the players who control the most amount of planets.

HERE IS ANOTHER OPTIONAL THING THAT I AM NOT SURE ABOUT! YOU TELL ME IF THIS SHOULD BE ADDED TO THE IDEA!
An alliance can travel to one of their controlled pre-warp planets at transwarp 15 and can read all types of incomings from their planets at the alliance incomings screen even if there are no fleets belonging to them at the planets.

SO THERE IT IS; MY IDEA, I HOPE IT WORKS OUT FOR YOU.
btw (lol) i think that is the longest thing i have ever written on spacetrace.

Well i think this is an excellent idea and should be put to use but maybe one alteration that abanoded planets to can have remarks such as being taken in by players of the alliance so they own them.

I love it all!

[KEPcH]

Crap idea, just somethin cheaters would love. Don't ya wolfpac?

[promethius2]

why would cheaters love this kepch?
As you can see i have paid particular attention to make it very difficult to get advantages from it.
And besides it would be really hard for a single player to do much with this.
This is mainly for alliances.
And whilst we are on the subject of olfpac i must say something.
I think that he has changed and i beleve that he will not multi again.
I have spoken with him a number of times on irc and beleive that he has changed.
Now please do not continue on with all this wolfpac crap!!!
I want this topic to be about this topic!
So if kepch you want to complain about wolfpac go start your own topic he has as much a right to vote as you do.
Now i want to know what people think and remember things CAN be changed around so don't think that sky is going to fall down lol.

[kever]

Sounds like fun. Well I think this is an ok idea if admins bother to script it. But it should not give any mp nor other benefits... Well maybe 50points/day (Think about it, if you have 10 planets under your "control" and have 5 members, you will only get 100p/member so not too much.) It may actually sound like a very little amount of points, but keeping the points low would reduce abuse and would make the capturing worth atleast something. Well this is just what I think, maybe somebody wants to say his/hers opinion?

[promethius2]

i like it kever.
It would make single players not intersted in captring pre-warp planets but it would make alliances very geedy and they would want more.
I think this could work what does everyone think?

[spacetrace]

no need to replace it ,because it is a sub-gaem wich is not interfering with anything, so it will stay .
i will change the ship soon to make it a more tasty target.

[promethius2]

so you mean it will offer some points????

[5th special forces]

I like the idea. it seems to be ok, but you should have to maintain control of the planet if you are gonna take the mp, and also, the enslaver should get the mp, unless it was a joint-effort to control the planet. besides, if it belongs to the last person to visit it, it will change hands so many times just so ppl can get the mp and build more. if you wanna keep it, maintain it.

[DavAlan]

LOL...some people can not vote the way they may want to...keep 'IT' and make very few changes...

57.14% 4 Yes this idea sounds perfect!
0% 0 I agree get rid of It but i would prefer a different replacement
28.57% 2 How about having both?
14.29% 1 No i like neither how about getting rid of It and having no replacement.

I also must agree that the extra mp given players will cause an increase in multi-cheating...or at least encorage it...

...but I do agree some "exciting new changes" should be added asap...

...and how about a less biased selection of voting???

[linkmaster]

the cheaters thing is a good point, and sertainly the extra mp would attract more, creating an alliance and then going by all pre warp planets, you should change the mp into score, and then only like 50 points, this gives you more of a chance for it to be put into the game because there will be no unbalanced mp, cause it sure as hell will happen that an alliance like total ownage or hell spawned angels controlls about 50 of those planets, that would mean 5000 xtra mp, divided ok but if h.s.a would then go to war with someone else, 5000 is a lot!. so score would be better. and the rest looks pretty much o.k to me

anyway, nice idea!

Well there could be more ships added to the game and if you could hold the planet for say 4 days in your alliances name your alliance members would get offerd a ship and dependant how long u stay they get bigger

There are so many ways to earn points already. I don't mind if you raise the score we get when we destroy 'it' but otherwise no changes are needed. You're just looking for easy and lazy points.

[kandos-]

well instead of giving points or mp mabey if you "capture" a pre-warp planet, it gives you a new technology, like,

the inhabitants of planet "x" give you the secret of "x-research"

also there should be an option to build a transwarp gate, to travel quickly between pre-warp planets, and the option to build a sensor array so at the bottom of the fleet screen, a message is displayed

planet "x" is attacked by blaaa of blaaa

???
whatdo you guys think??

Maybe Kepch but as i said, i hate things that have no use.
Like those pre-warp planets! the idea of little furry cute ewoks or pokemon running around happily makes me sick, i want to enslave them!!!!!!!
And when you think about it 50 points is nothing.
If ou control 3 prewarp planets that is only 150 points.
That is very small for a single player and a single player would get bored it is mostly for alliances who just want to show how much they have conquered and how much power they possess.
Now look at "IT" An aliance has a "huntscore" so basically
the alliance is saying this is how many times i played hide and seek.
I don't know aboout you, but i would rather conquer the galaxy than play tag.
