Aww. To me it seemed pretty interesting. By the way, Sciguy, could you possibly make schematics for the ship? Stuff like system power and maybe interior? I like the story so far. :) If you want, I can handle this. Just tell me what you have in mind, otherwise I'll freeball it. Me, freeballin' it: h...

This is all too true. I haven't died to an enemy ship in CE Infinite even once. But I haven't won in CE Infinite, either, because I always run out of fuel before I can go anywhere.

words about that laughing little bastard In FTL Captains Edition (version) .ftl In Data In events_fuel.xml.append add the following: <event name="FUEL_ON_SLUG_CHUCKLE"> <text>A poorly armed Slug ship cruises by and offers assistance. Their captain seems to be chuckling to himself, perhaps...

Chrono, stop using drop shadow! Gods, man, how often do I have to remind you about Gaussian blur?

Assuming I wasn't about to leave for two weeks, I would submit this. But I won't, since it's terrible and I'm about to leave.

Or was it always useless?

Nobody knowssssssss...

Both of those are still better than my hackjob attempt at shading. The last ship I tried custom shading on was so complex, I didn't know how it looked in 3D, so I couldn't do self-cast shadows and stuff--in the end I just gave up, slapped a gradient layer on, and called it a day, lol Did a little b...
