Shores of Hazeron - again! a free deep galactic MMO space game [Servers have been permanently shut - Games

Allright, we came up with a naming convention for naming stuff while discussing in chat. Anything in the Trigonometry sector should be math themed. Other than that, it goes like: Solar System: Facepunch Subforum Planet: Facepunch User (Preferably from this thread) City: Name of a game that the user plays (Preferably less than 3 words long). For ships, they should be named after WWII commanders. Still be careful to append the resource in parentheses after the name for resource colonies and to update the google docs accordingly. I'll be going around within the next few days to start renaming stuff. You can still name your own stuff if you want to play ball by following the naming convention. It's not a rule or anything, just a little bit of fun and it would be cool if you all want to play along.

New Snode better make a return...

I no longer have control of NCSV Deznik. I VOTE WE BLOE IT OUT OF THE SKY. [editline]22nd April 2014[/editline] Also my new ship is the NCSV Testicular. no questions.

If you want a better WWII commander name for your ship, just tell me which one you'd prefer.

Why not just "famous people of WWII and the inter-war period"? Gives you a whole asstonne more names to use. [sp]Though if we do go that route, I call dibs on NCSV Simo Häyhä.[/sp]

Vulcan has been found once more, Pilotguy is working on it. Holt: Phlogolas is 12pc from the ringworld and has the best Phlogstron a cursory survey of my many scan reports at Q235, zone 2, planet 1. ConspiralFactor is off to find us some better antiflux.

So, I can't seem to buy soldering irons from my capital. Like, there's 18k of them, I try to buy one, "sorry this item is out of stock." No it fucking isn't you piece of shit. This bug is new to me.

Get your officer to buy it for your ship.

[QUOTE=Cakebatyr;44611278]Get your officer to buy it for your ship.[/QUOTE] I have no officer yet, and I have no ability to make a proper ship. My options look like having to bring 10 natural gas along with me to the moon to build some there so I can actually build the damn airport and broker. I also apparently cannot collect taxes even though I have a capital, the city is declared capital, tax rates are set, and I have a bank.

[QUOTE=Cakebatyr;44611321]I can make an alt and come problemshoot in your empire if you're interested.[/QUOTE] I'm sure I'll figure it out. Thanks though, been a long time since I played SoH, lots of new bugs to deal with. I might make an alt and join the FP empire if I can get back on my feet enough. Good relations with the FP empire is otherwise a incredibly great thing, considering I am trying to get some friends into the game after I get my feet going.

Theres a bunch of pirates in our Eludium colony, knocked [del]Spacebrick 2's[/del] Freighter Douglas MacArthor's FTL offline (99% integrity is not enough to engage?!). [editline]21st April 2014[/editline] And for whatever reason, all our ships hold seem full of coal. [editline]21st April 2014[/editline] Hero of the Empire [url=http://facepunch.com/member.php?u=220461]Ath'Matar[/url] has found us TL32 antiflux. Shower him in winners.

[QUOTE=Cakebatyr;44611194]ConspiralFactor is off to find us some better antiflux.[/QUOTE] i have located the antiflux. [editline] 4/21[/editline] ninjad

Also he found a 20 arc ringworld with TL32 ore and hydrogen on it. But its rather far away from us. If anyone would like to start a new empire on it, give us a shout.

[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;44612112]I'd love to. However, i'm in probably the arse-end of nowhere, with an overall tech level of 1 :v:[/QUOTE] Me too. After making four trips to my moon base and back however, I should be on track to get t2 as soon as my fucking university stops dicking around.

Rebuilding my moon base, this time on a moon with better quality eludium (at TL1, I had to go around manually collecting samples from each of my system's 16 airless moons), and a surprisingly fast rotational speed. Would I be correct in saying a moon of diameter 3800, population max 200, could have 4 military flags and thus 8 military buildings without suffering morale penalties? Or is the 1/7th max pop formula just for the maximum amount of troops possible, and not maximum before morale penalties?

Wow this thread is alive again. Maybe i should start expanding my own empire again.

It never really dies does it.

[QUOTE=Cakebatyr;44610551] NCSV Ramiel is a heavily outdated (TL11) battleship. NCSV Morgan Freeman is Firefox's ship. NCSV Contrail is Mervenus' old ship.[/QUOTE] No the Ramiel is my ship and it's TL 25. I'm building a tl 28 version though. Not sure about the Morgan Freeman though.

Well, I am proud to announce that Vulcium is once again available to NeoCAS. I am also proud to announce that my ship has turned into heaven. [img]http://i.imgur.com/JojwJ9c.jpg[/img]

Lord was right, the ships sound much more awesome now with those names. Gonna finish renaming them today. [editline]22nd April 2014[/editline] After that, I'll move on to renaming the cities and shit.

[QUOTE=Firefox42;44612922]No the Ramiel is my ship and it's TL 25. I'm building a tl 28 version though. Not sure about the Morgan Freeman though.[/QUOTE] I think the Morgan Freeman is another old ship of mine. [editline]22nd April 2014[/editline] Corona is my active ship, I will rename it later. Also, contrail is an outdated tl32 Missile cruiser. Useless

I remember trying to get into this game a year or two ago, but the appalling graphics put me off (and the confusing UI!). I remember the graphics being something like a bad mix of Second Life and Runescape.

I made a civilian version of my Station. I'll publish the design later but it's made to be used by a crew that lacks an officer, since ships can't shoot without one. Features more cargo space, more shields and more sensors. Lacks any kind of weapon system.
