GeofftheMedio_fixit: I think so00:35
GeofftheMedio_Morphy: balance isn't a major focus at the moment00:35
Morphystill a underlaying ratio system doesn't empede development00:36
GeofftheMedio_feel free to suggest something or submit a balance patch00:36
Morphydid anyone ask yet about tooltips00:37
Morphyas I didn't find it in the forum00:37
GeofftheMedio_often00:37
Morphythats why I asked about a UI thread00:38
Morphysee whats been suggested already00:38
GeofftheMedio_there are many00:38
Morphymaking a central one could save a lot of fractured threads00:39
GeofftheMedio_it would also be useless due to mixing in too many unrelated discussions about various different UI screens or elements00:40
Morphya sub forum i suppose00:41
GeofftheMedio_Graphics00:42
Morphyand anyone suggesting for right click to be = close menu01:02
Morphyshould either spam a thread01:02
Morphyor read every one to see if its not suggested01:02
Morphyas tooltips was kind of too obvious for me to be the first guy to think about it01:02

MorphyGeofftheMedio how much depth are you looking for in political regimes14:46
MorphyI'm starting a basic draft14:46
Morphydo you want to keep it basic as in moo or do you want extra layers in it14:47

GeofftheMedioMorphy: have a look at the existing discussions on the forums17:39
MorphyI have been browsing through the forum...17:40
Morphydo you have anything particular in mind17:40
Morphyi'm hardly up to speed with it17:40
GeofftheMediohttp://www.freeorion.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=207517:41
tpb<http://ln-s.net/9WgB> (at www.freeorion.org)17:41
GeofftheMedioskim over it / don't read everything...17:41
*** StrangerDanger has joined #freeorion17:42
Morphyso i shoudl treat this as a draft roadmap?17:44
Morphy(reading)17:44
GeofftheMedioI don't know what you mean by that17:45
Morphyas in : is this the general direction you are going to keep designing in?17:49
GeofftheMediosomething along the lines of the conclusions will hopefully be implemented17:49
Morphyfor instance, this hapyness bit17:51
Morphyso far it looks to be assumed that only governance effects that17:51
Morphywhile normally it should be subject to extarnal influence as well17:51
Morphyin simple terms, an alien invasion will make them very unhappy, but wouldn't want to get them rebelling againts their own kind uless they have a reason17:52
Morphyany way i'll keep on reeding17:52
GeofftheMediono, lots of things would influence happiness17:52
Morphymy idea is to have to have social adjustments that constitue political systems17:55
Morphyi'm reading what you have and drafting what i have in mind17:55

Morphya lot of things18:47
Morphyso18:47
Morphyi got to page 518:47
GeofftheMedioi said skim it...18:48
Morphyhas anyone tried to list all the effects in a list18:48
GeofftheMedionot that i know of18:48
GeofftheMediousually more ideas come up after something basic is working18:48
GeofftheMedioeg. the growing list of Effects available for content scripting18:49
Morphya basic still needs to be formulated ...18:49
MorphyI can do that18:49
Morphywant it done?18:49
GeofftheMedionot sure what you suggesting, but feel free to post in brainstorming18:49
Morphyread the entire thread18:50
Morphyand list every effect/situation everyone has come up with in there18:50
Morphyin a simple list18:50
Morphyof "events"18:50
Morphyso anybody getting into the discussion18:50
Morphycan see the list and then OPTIONALLY get into the reasoning of it18:51
Morphybecause now its ... 1 idea, tons of reasoning, next idea18:51
Morphyoverall it would be a referential summary of everything you have in there18:52
Morphyconsider it like the "contents" page in a book18:52
MorphyI'm starting on it18:53
GeofftheMediook... might be useful18:54

Morphythe only thing I think is unlikely you have discussed much is mirroring19:07
GeofftheMedio?19:07
Morphyhave players face each other in identical odds19:07
Morphysplit the galaxy down the midle and mirror it19:08
GeofftheMediotournamet brackets, or game starting conditions?19:08
Morphyeverything19:08
GeofftheMediovarious galaxy setup scripts can be made, it's not a priority now19:08
Morphyit can be easily done in terms of lore19:08
Morphyif players want to ultimate showdown19:08
Morphyto know that the other guy didnt get a lucky planet19:09
Morphyor that the skills werent unbalanced same skills same planets split down the midle19:09
Morphyonly choices make up victory19:09
Morphythats one of the rarest experiences in competitive gaming19:10
Morphyespecially in complex games such as this19:10
Morphyas fun as its playing at variable odds, it has been severely exausted by so much unbalanced gaming19:11
* Morphy off to cinema19:31
