Hello everyone. I know I haven't been the most around and happening of persons, but I had something I was hoping I could get some help on.

Right now I'm working on a text based console application for the purpose of large ship space combat sim, and of course a story and characterization just because I like to have those too. Anyways, as I'm working away programming this in C++, I'm running across points where I really need beta testers. So far just having even one random person to go to has helped a lot.

There may not be much to test atm, but there is still plenty to critique, and more features are coming, and features need testing. Anyone interested in signing up can drop me a line at spickell@thetagamerz.com.

Dropped you a line. Like I said in IRC, if you need it you can come yell at me :thumb:

For those of you who do check the forums but don't hang out on IRC, I'm going to link to the current build. So far it's only intro, and not even that is entirely finished. ( www.thetagamerz.com/Birthv0.11.2.4.zip )

The background ship movement engine is actually pretty well complete, it just needs to be worked in to a control system. Simulating planetoids and their gravity will be the next major step in propulsion after controls have been added.

So, any plans for network play? This would make one hell of a MUD. And I'm sure you've noticed, but your forums have been ransacked. :lol:

My forums are basically dead and I have no intention of saving them until I get someone who can actually do web design to do them. ~.^

I'm thinking cautiously about online play. I'd rather have a good single player game finished and then create a MUD afterwards, but plans have a way of changing...

Concentrate on that single player. Multiplayer will come if it seems right ;)

By the by, I just finished a separate proof of concept ish thing that I was doing to learn finite state machines. Now I'm probably going to be taking a step back and looking at how to integrate scripting into it.
