Trek game I'm working on...

[Vex Xiang 0]

Dock at the spacedock (next to DS9). The ships are pretty expensive though right now since you can only play in 1 sitting and then it resets your stats :)

[Vex Xiang 0]

Updated version now online. Fixes: hail button fixed, dock button fixed, some small bugs folks mentioned fixed.

 

I finally finished all the sectors! Yay! ::cheers:: It took me forever to do those. Unfortunately because of it the size of the game jumped to 750K.

 

But good news is that its almost done...so it wont be getting much bigger than that (maybe even smaller if I can find some ways to shorten some code). Whats left? Tweaking, adding special missions in addition to cargo runs, standard bug fixes, and the saving option (which is the big one).

 

Updated screenshot...

 

 

Enjoy :)

I like the new target thing good job!

 

"Since your in a runabout the bad guys mostly ignore you unless you make them mad or annoy them."

 

1) I went up to a big ship and it destroyed me!!!! What gives?

Maybe because your "Bad pilot" sign was showing... the Jemhadar are crazy but they won't left any one smash in to them, only fighters smash in to you :)

Oh yeah, my character's bad piloting skills, right...

that took me a while!

If you hang around enemy ships or go near them they might just decide to blast you.

[Dumbass 0]

Whenever I try to dock all I get is a message saying "DS9 wonders why we should waste resources on you" or words to that effect and it won't let me dock.

You need to earn prestige for the station to want to give you repairs. It's a good idea to do a couple cargo runs the first few minutes.

[William Laiden 0]

Ah, I'm too offensive in the putt-putt ship.... I keep getting blown to pieces! grrrrrrr...

[Dumbass 0]

It keeps referring to planets not in the Bajor system. How do I find these?

[FredM 0]

Hey there,

 

Dumbass, click on the "Map" feature.

 

Xiang, might want to consider key binding some of the controls. For example, engage warp to W or something for that matter. Somewhat of a pain when warping from system to system to have to click warp, then map, next system and repeat.

[William Laiden 0]

I think you should also bind shields and weapons, maybe even have customisable binds! oooo...

 

I also suggest that, when you are finished, you submit it to newgrounds.com

I think that site needs a quality trek flash...

[Vex Xiang 0]

Well..I did do that...then I got rid of it. The problem with Flash is the way it handles its key inputs. Buttons like the spacebar, alt, tab, etc, would work as shortcut keys, but they also run browser functions. So when I'd press ALT to fire a weapon, the pulldown menu would appear :) heh

Full Version Released!

 

It will now save your information everytime you dock.

 

Various bugs have been fixed, an "ending" has been added; if you manage to liberate all the systems you get a treat :).

 

Filesize is a bit smaller than the last version. Full version is 550K.

 

Any bugs that come up please report them to me and I'll fix them as they're reported.

 

Enjoy :)

Good Job Vex, new problem : can't beam any thing to arizona in new amera sectior

Edited April 22, 2004 by Tovan

Some of the planets dont let you beam down...I'm not sure why.

 

If you ever have that happen just go to a Fed ship and hail them a few times to get them to offer to take your cargo and dump it, then do a cargo run somewhere else.

Great game Vex. So...addicting.

 

Freaked the heck out of me when I saw the Breen ship. Then freaked me out more when it FIRED ON ME!!!

 

Don't worry I got away

Hey there,

 

I've had two issues. First is the same issue dealing with Planet Arizona. Second, I can't seem to cancel the cargo run and beam items to other vessels. I have run into several who ask "Can we take any cargo off your hands?" Yet, when I come to a complete stop, a redshirt is beamed off. I've tried it with/without the channel open/closed. Something I'm doing wrong?

Yeah, same issue happened to me, my advice to every one is that, don't take cargo runs to the new amera section if you already beamed that cargo up, you may have to close the window and restart playing (of course it'd be saved).

Hehe, beaming Red shirts into space is fun.

[Nemesis 0]

Did you close your comm? Because you're not supposed to.

[Vex Xiang 0]

Beaming cargo to other vessels should work...I've not encountered any problems with it myself.

 

It might be your distance thats not allowing the cargo to be beamed...are you right next to the other ship when you press beam with your comm open? And the comm must still say "Can we take some cargo off your hands" when you beam.

[Dumbass 0]

Hehe, beaming Red shirts into space is fun.

Yeah, especially in a Runabout. Who knew a tiny ship could hold so many of them?
