Re: wayfar1444, a colonization/strategy futuristic mud Well, I've started out on this game, and am trying to figure it out. I guess it's the kind of thing which really rewards experimentation. I'll have to keep poking around.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=168100#p168100 ___

Re: Star traders rpg for IOS accessibility update Hi All,This is quite a fun game so far, though I'll admit I'm struggling a bit with the interface from time to time. I feel as if navigation in general is a bit harder than it should be. Also, when I first started, I was given a contract to deliv

Re: Star traders rpg for IOS accessibility update Hi Dark and all,Well, I'm making some excellent progress in the game. I've also sent the developers some info on a couple access issues, including the poor button labels. Those should be relatively easy to fix, and I've done my best to explain ho

Re: Star traders rpg for IOS accessibility update Hi,Okay, I can answer some of these questions. You can only buy one of any type of upgrade—sails, weapons, or whatever. Once you've bought that upgrade you can't remove it, because a lot of the changes are internal to the ship and can't be easil

Re: Star traders rpg for IOS accessibility update I've discovered that playing ST on the iPad is a bit easier. The buttons don't seem to move as much, and the larger screen space allows me to know where some of them, like the back button, are and tap them without needing to flick over. I'm enjoy

Re: The NER BBS, accessible gaming for all, now available Hi Dark and all,Usurper is certainly a bit challenging at first. Hopefully I can help with some general advice however.Gold from kills and leveling up is obviously very valuable. You want to deposit it in the bank as soon as possible, if

Re: The NER BBS, accessible gaming for all, now available I'm guessing you were killed by orcs. This is a special case for some reason, and you aren't allowed to resurrect yourself from it. If you had a team, you could have a team member pay to resurrect you, or of course just wait until tomorro

Re: Star traders rpg for IOS accessibility update I think the reason you can't get contracts from the palace or military base anymore is that you are probably flagged as a criminal in the faction's books. You should be able to pay for a pardon if this is the case. Otherwise, I'm not sure why you
