So yeah, very interesting game, thanks for the server. Though I wish I knew about the 'hiding' tutorials before I spent a few hours blundering around after hopping through the first tutorial. Now I'm the owner of a nearly broke, very sprawled out and probably highly inefficient colony. But I'm having fun!

This is awesome fun. I've left the tutorial/newbie system, and the game has become MUCH harder! o.O

The lack of the 100x research time boost really hits you when trying to design armour. On top of that, the greatly reduced funds force you to make some tough decisions. I think I may have underestimated that, actually. I'm almost broke already because of designing a few facilities >.<

Still, it's really enjoyable, and if I get too stuck, I'll just respawn again and start over ;)

Also: in a comical turn of events, inteuniso, who was on the same planet as me in the newbie tutorial, seems to be on the same one in the 'live' universe too. lol. At least I have someone else to build mines this time, rather than using up all my CP on them!

jocan2003, how many players are actively using the server at the moment?

And, on a related note, might you be willing to sign up new accounts again in the near future? Or will we need to wait a while for code optimisations or a new server?

I too am interested in knowing how many players currently play on this server and if new player registration will be open again any time soon.

I started to play, and it was great, but I'm really stuck, lol.

I self destructed because I had totally messed up my first colony, now I respawn in space with a respawn capsule and have absolutely no clue what to do.
Other people in world chat were equally clueless, too.

Any help available?

I will be open to new account once i get an hardware upgrade, there is about 7 active user and about 20 new account, that is about a total of 40 account.

Since im using my personal computer to host the server i need to stop registration untill i get the server running on a dedicated machine. As for how long it will take i have no clue, i was talking to somebody yesterday about a possible partnership to funds the new hardware but there is no specifics yet.

I will update this post if player stop playing and see what is possible to do. Also please be aware that the server is NOT final wich mean it will get under heavy devlopement once the server get in a dedicated box, im trying my best to avoid any dataloss, corruption and keep everything stable.

If you have any other question dont be shy and ask away.

About the help after self-destruction you can always use in-game chat or come on IRC, when i dont work im either in game or IRC.

click once to see planet map, and right click where you want the unit to land, if you click 2 time you will change environment and leave your unit selection

FINALLY got around to actually start playing the game. I've quit on other games for now, so I can allocate my full attention to this one. :P.
So yeah. Hello, Beyond Protocol players!

That and the disigner are the main reason why i love BP :) So expect a lot of work on those system once i can get deep inside the code ( aka once the server is out of my computer and on a dedicated box )

Hi all,

Has anyone else had any luck setting up transport routes? When I try to create a route, using a newly created transport, between two of my colonies, I'm simply informed the transport must be idle in order to begin the route. However, to the best of my knowledge, it is idle (it says it's idle in the transport window)

Any ideas?
