    I lost over 100 BS, 60C, 100D, 20 Transports
    So I have more or less stopped trying to win and just buy a HEART OF RANA 2, before this game ends.
    I already have 140k astros, only need about 58k more.

    Anyone else lose a fleet?

    um.......

    how the hell do you have 140k of astros?<!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->??

    You must have a lot of patience.

    I am aiming for #200 ranking for the end of beta 3.

    I was hoping for a #50 however when I had to restart I figured that this figure was a little extreme.

    hey guys, its me again, sorry i havent been around for a while

    i have no computer, and yearly exams coming up next week. eek! :|

    anyway, it doesnt stop me from checking astrowars every one or two days <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    i have a question - im currently sitting on my fat arse, but i want to expand. inside my system is out of the question, i already have 1, 2, 3, 4, and the rest are taken.

    i want to expand out of my system, i can build up a small fleet, [a lot bigger one with all of you donating to me ;D] and possibly wedge myself in another system, but it will not work without spend all points.

    im under the impression that i can use spend all points on any planet closer to the 'centre of the galaxy'...

    im currently at '60/-6'
    would that 'closer to the centre' be either:
    59/-2
    57/-3

    or

    62/-8

    im pretty sure i can figure out which one, but why do people always go attack outwards... its hard because the planets are so unbuilt up and so crappy, so they get no pp...

    i want to spend all points, help me <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    edit: also, for example... 57/-6 would that count as well?

    what if its:

    (58/-8) <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    its less on the x axis, but more on the y axis... so help me please <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I think I was wrong about the system closest to the centre.

    It appears that AR would have moving to a system with a lower system ID than yours would ensure you can spend all points.... How can this be checked? simply go to map, and hold your mouse over a system and you will see the hyperlink at the bottom with the starsystems number in it. Have a look at a few and you should be able to pick it up.

    IF you haven't already worked out, systems are allocated in a clockwise fashion....

    This is probably a stupid question but, is there a way to transfer pp between planets? That is without a skill level? Because I would really like to get the accumulated 125 pp from my first planet to my new one...

    Your absolutely right Xyth - very stupid <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    You can mate, but you have to have the planet you wish to transfer to LOWER than you. i.e if you are on planet 10, and you want to send pp to planet 9, then you can. However you cant send upwards. i.e planet 10 to planet 11.

    When you have 150 pp accumulated, simply click spend all points, and then click on interstellar trade. Then go to the trade screen, click buy and purchase those pp's.

    The pps you purchase will automatically be dumped on your lowest number planet.

    Well its a shame I lost all my fleet.
    As you said in the AW forums eediot "It has really put alot of ppl off"
    I'm one of them!
    I think I'll play it again after the reset, but I am not happy about it!

    Not to mention I'll lose all my alliance buddies!

    You got me interested.
    I tried creating account, forgot the NS_ part (me too) and the confirmation email has landed already. Didnt confirm my account though yet from the email link. Next I tried changing registration name to NS_Mazkaline as it should, but no email has landed yet. I cant login either with NS_Mazkaline while no registration has been completed :F=
    So is there any way to change nick in-game? (im sure this has been asked but i gotta sleep soon and wont have time to read whole topic) and any idea how long have to wait before that nick frees up again.
  • XythXyth Avatar Join Date: 2003-11-04 Member: 22312Members
    I don't think you are allowed to register 2 times under same email... Not sure though, sombody can probably say for sure though.

    I just sent out my second colony ship inbound to beta bellatrix planet 6. Will probably arrive tomorrow morning(last one did). Im mad cause I though all but 1 of the people in my star system were afk, but it turned out they weren't. errr <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo--> oh well, will probably get better points for taking down a lvl 4 starbase then a lvl 2.

    When this game restarts we all have to set a date and time that we ALL will start new accounts with the NS tag infront and start at the same time.
    Hopefully we will all start near each other!

    NS_Mazkaline at Beta Aliath (36/67)

    Too bad theres two other fellas besides me, and neither are idling much. Seems like other one is going to whoop my sory butt asap.
    Ill start reading help files in work practice now, instead of using 6 hour idletime for drawing. Eagle over.

    Me and another guy in my system just decided to ally, and we were wondering if there is a built in option for allying?/ ex: stops us from attacking each other.

    I don't think there is but im just checking to make sure, any of you guys know?
  • RenegadeRenegade Old school Join Date: 2002-03-29 Member: 361Members
    Sadly, no. Let us hope they decide to fix that in Beta 4.
  • MazkalineMazkaline Join Date: 2003-02-11 Member: 13409Members
    Strange enough, its almost like built-in feature, thats how often people speak about it and use the term in forums too. Backstabbing occurs alot and people get cheated, but thats politics without any rules from game itself. So only penalty actually is the possibility from bigger alliance where other members are going to whoop this cheaters butt.

    Anyone who is bored with this game or is giving up, doesn't want to keep play ect...

    I am about to come under attack from a very powerful player who is setting up his stuff in one of my lesser systems. Normally I would be able to smoke this Joker, but due to that nasty bug, I lost over 60,000 pp worth of ships.

    Anyone who can send me in upwards of 5k or more Astros I would really love you for it.
    This is why I am asking anyone who doesn't care about giving up 5k-20k Astros because I need so many A$ that I could never pay it back!

    He has a fleet of about 120 BS waiting to attack me soon. All I have been able to rebuild is 60 BS so far.

    His name is Akorver and if you check him out you would see what I mean by powerful. Sadly all my Allies are busy with attacks of there own and most are too far away from the Alpha Okda system to help me in time!
    Due to the fact they are in there own battles I won't be able to get and A$ from them.

    PLEASE, I know the game is going to reset soon, so thats why I ask anyone who has no chance of getting anywhere, anyone whos bored with the game or has a surplus of A$ and doesn't care about spending them!

    PLEASE HELP ME SURVIVE! <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Is there a limit or somthing on how many times a day you can use the "Spend all points" command? Or a minimum amount of points required to use it?
  • Smoke_NovaSmoke_Nova Join Date: 2002-11-15 Member: 8697Members
    you HAVE to have 150 to spend all points.

    Good news are, I have three neighbours and one of them is from here. Bad news are, none of them are idling but expanding as fast as possible.

    trust me mazkaline, soon, expand DOWNWARDS [so you can spend all points] and dont stop expanding until youve hit a non-afk competent enemy, or the end of your system <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> wait until you have enough to sort of 'snowball' the whole thing with spend all points, then 'whoosh' and off you go. dont be a fence sitter like me =/

    edit: but then again, dont just rush off and start colonising everywhere, you gotta time it properly and make sure you can support it, etc etc
