Steve, you live like a mile from me.   I love the game, and C# will just enhance it.   So take your time and breath . . . . .  and slowly breathe life into the game.   Sure I want it now, but tre de loar

Correct with a minor tweak: it will be released by a Friday.

I will definitely be released on a Friday
Give or take 2-3 days.

All i know is that i am hyped up to uncontrollable levels.
I had issues with aurora vb6 on windows 10 so i had to run it in a windows 7  vm, Now thinking about  running it on my own os and simply alt tabbing  into  tutorials/wiki/video guides excites me, let alone the rest of the  new features.
At this point, I was suspecting demonic intervention.

What issues did you have in Win10?
It hasn't been a problem for me--other than remembering to run as admin, and figuring out how to get the windows back onto the monitor when I switch between computers.

I'm gonna go standard beginnings and see what's out there.  Just excited that it will move faster as I get to multiple systems.  Very interested in this diplomacy system.

I think I will go with Steve's 'Conventional(+)' start suggestion where I go conventional but than add just Trans Newtonian Technology through SpaceMaster.

I had hoped to do a Jump outpost network empire in a small universe with 2 or 3 pre-generated NPRs, but if civilians still ignore tender stations and only jump using gates then probably just going to go with whatever really.
The popular stereotype of the researcher is that of a skeptic and a pessimist.  Nothing could be further from the truth! Scientists must be optimists at heart, in order to block out the incessant chorus of those who say "It cannot be done. "

Isn't that just a standard TN start with no RP allocated?

I'm boring and will do a standard Sol start. However, I think I'll have 2-3 starting NPRs. Also, I'm super interested in the scenario depot being talked about because you can do some pretty awesome stuff in SM and I'm not creative enough for that..
