Thanks to Bay12 we got a large player influx and a new programmer volunteer 

Anytime you find a bug or you have an idea about 'hey why doesn't this happen/this would be neat', you can send a message with:
@send *idea - or - @send *bug, as appropriate, and it will prompt you for a subject and message. 

I'll probably post another update when the major alpha goals are completed (20 systems, npc pilots and crew, a thick layer of polish for creatures and biomes), but in the meantime here is how the map looks using HTML colors via Mushclient with MXP mode on:

Great game, now to finally stop getting sidetracked by each little discovery and hunker down and build a ship.

So, how many people are working together right now on say WY-1444?

[Paul]

I've been playing solo. Asked around a few times early on if anyone wanted to work with me, but nobody volunteered, so I wound up doing everything by myself

Guess I should have asked in this thread, would probably have had better luck.

I'm mostly on 17-EGRET though. Got all my buildings and tools built there.

Played this once in its very early days for about a day straight, and then got burned out. Hoping to have time to try it again soon

Looking pretty awesome from the posts. Havent actualy tried it yet due to being tangled with multiple IRL things + some OL things, but I might try it this weekend. I've been looking for a space game AND a substitute to hellmoo for a while since its the only text game I actualy enjoyed playing, and since this one seems to be in the same vein as it (coding and presentation wise at least), I need to try this.

Is there a wiki up though? It looks as if I'll need some assistance using some features, but I might just ask around here if I need help.

I've been playing for a bit. Don't really know what to do, so I've got a little shack on WY-1444 and I've been trying to get leather armor. I'm also making a closet that I am going to fill with machetes. I call it the 'Machete Drop Crate'.

[Shooer]

Bah, you should have built a cantina first like I did.
But if you want my spare rifle I can bring it to you if you wish.

[Paul]

Pfft, machetes, rifles, leather armor?

The very first thing I crafted in the game was an e34 laser blaster. (Well, technically it was the consoles and components that I used to make the e34 laser blaster, but I built them as part of the process of making the e34 laser blaster). I then blasted my way through every woodland creature I could find. I still have that blaster, and it has killed a lot of moon pirates.

Second project was a starship.

You guys just aren't thinking big enough.

[Shooer]

I said spare, as in it's my first one, as in the first one I ever had, as in I got it from one of the pirates I killed with my e34.

[Lukewarm]

I'd gladly enough take it from you. Can't find what tool is needed for that pesky Offensive Beam generator.

[RulerOfNothing]

I'd gladly enough take it from you. Can't find what tool is needed for that pesky Offensive Beam generator.

It's the electronics processor.

[Lukewarm]

That would have been nice to know before I spent so much time making all this other misc. whatnots.

[Muz]

So what's the grind level on this? HellMOO was pretty heavy on the grinding, though it was playable as a chat room. If it's too grindy, are there spots open for programmers?

[Shooer]

People need to leave more ships around for me to 'borrow'.

If you need another novice-intermediate programmer, let me know.
