Easter eggs!
« on: January 20, 2014, 04:30:53 PM »

I was randomly on the minecraft wiki when I saw "Easter Eggs" tabs randomly.

Starsector should have easter eggs.

Idea: A ship called the missingno-class that random flashes different ships.

Are you sure there aren't any in the game already that you've simply not noticed? ;)

Well, would't call it an Easter egg, but there are at least two kinds of aliens in vanilla Starsector...

The game was completed 8 years ago and we get a free expansion every year.

Arranging holidays in an embrace with the Starsector is priceless.

I'll help- pretty sure the Onslaught's codex entry mentions non-humans  ::)

No, that are just rumors :)  I'm talking of actual aliens in the Sector.

It's the portraits isn't it? You drew your coworkers and now we're playing as them.

I've checked through the art asset PNG files, no alien ships, portraits, planets, illustrations, backgrounds, icons, weapons, missiles etc. - there are no aliens. Just like there is no Lola De Rio in GTA 4.

That said it would be cool if there was though...

Okay, in the descriptions.csv file, water worlds have mats of algae analogs and primitive life. That's the best I could find so far.
