Increasingly larger images of the Imperial Aquila, one would assume.

I believe somebody on the forums said that the animation for traveling is about a minute long? Not totally sure on that number, though.

To exist or not exist, that is the query. For whether it is more optimal of the CPU to endure the viruses and spam of outragous fortune, or to something something something.

That is mostly because traveling is a hidden loading screen. The game is generating the system while it is "flying".

I think travel time does depend on how far your destination is, but I hardly think it would ever take more than 2 minutes.

Pay $1 to travel there immediately!

Minecraft UI is very simple. There's only so many ways you can implement "simple" without copying something. We also gonna complain that it uses WASD?

Pay $1.99 for 24-hour earplugs, drowning out the constant chorus of "Never Gonna Give You Up" on trumpet from your fellow players! Or get three sets of plugs for $4.99!

From yesterday
"Bartwe (with a small assist from me) continued working on bugfixes and trying his mad dash of trying to get starbound working under Visual Studio.  There’s a good reason we’re doing this, and it’s because the way we compile on windows is getting old and finicky and creaky (MinGW) and it’s causing us a lot of headaches.  Well, to be frank supporting even the latest latest MSVC compiler is giving us headaches too, but it’s nice to have options :P  This I think is JUST about working finally, so woo."

WTF? This is the sort of problems their design policy is leading to. These are things that are normally designed from the ground up because they cause massive compatibility problems later on otherwise. Ugh!

They should've used Eclipse or some other kind of cross platform IDE instead of just the MingW compiler...

I thought the same thing. It's a bit of a hugely fundamental change considering how "finished" the game is. My optimism for this game is started to drop, somewhat :(
