Hi.
extra defensive missions might be a nice thing actually, possibly leading to
some group co op missions further down the line when several settlements
ally together to take on a tough enemy, i'd enjoy something like that
myself.
MMy concern over beta status is that there are people who will stop playing
a game if it says "beta" on the basis that it's not finished and has limited
content, which of course is not the case with many of yours.
As to being back, well I'm back from music school, but well be dashing off
with my parents to our small bungalo at the seaside tomorrow.
Hopefully i can persuade bt to give me reasonable wireless coverage out
there, but we'll have to see.
Either way I'll be heading back to my cosy and rather bizarre flat on friday
after which normal service will be resumed, ;D.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

Welcome back Dark! We have missed you sir.
I don't currently have plans to allow all unit types to be transferred,
but I'm actually typing this while taking a break from the new war tent
code I'm writing. It will allow people to transfer soldiers to another
player as a way to reinforce them in times of trouble. It isn't quite as
nice as being able to give someone, for example, workers or peasants, but
I'm sure a friend under siege will be happy to gain a dozen new soldiers
to join his population.
I do plan to go through soon and remove the beta status from my games. It
is something I should have done a long time ago, I'm just lazy and/or
forgetful. haha.
I don't have any plans for standard currency, but who knows what I'll end
up adding if I add even more missions later. That seems like a logical
progression to make.
Hi aprone.
I was looking forward to a new version of castaways to play
with when i got back from music school, I'll be looking
forward to this one sinse it sounds like a major upgrade.
Just a couple of questions though.
Firstly, the merchant cart as a device for sending aide
sounds great, however for co op play I wonder if it could
also be expanded to actually send population to other people
as well.
Afterall that way a player with 10 houses and a population
of 50 or so can help out someone who's just come online and
is starting up much more effectively.
Interface wise, once a merchant and cart are created, just
have people travel on the cart, perhaps with ctrl e for
emigrate.
Also, is formal trading with currency, perhaps with npc
trading races going to be inserted into the game later on?
Beware the grue!
