Version 0.7 released; adds Vux Intruder and Spathi Discriminator!

Also, overhauled the Melnorme Trader to have a true multi-stage variable blaster, which I am quite proud of. It is a lot more faithful to the Star Control implementation of this weapon, or at least a lot closer than I thought I'd be able to get.

Lastly, added descriptions for all implemented ships, and overhauled the ship naming to use proper names and authentic ship's captains!

Next to come is the Zoq-Fot-Pik Stinger! Alex I believe this was the one you wanted from last year.

Wow, beautiful ships! I've played Star Control 2 to death and you totally captured the look those ships would have in Starfarer!

Any chance of doing an Ariloulaleelay skiff? Even without the teleport it would be a cool ship to play... Though maybe the inertia-less handling is impossible to implement. I loved farming the Mycon with those ships, and having the Mycon fly into its own fire :D

You've managed to make this surprisingly close to the original. I mean, things like no overloads on the Yehat shields that I could see, the graphical style is an incredible combination of the original combined with the Starfarer aesthetics, and so on. I did find it odd that the ships seem to slowly decelerate if you don't keep applying thrust. It seems to happen in neither Starfarer nor Star Control II, so I found it surprising that it seems to here.

Also, the close-in attack form of the Transformer is brutal!  :o

Heh yeah that's a new feature of nebulae; it exposes a hack that I'm using to control speed where pretty much the entire arena is nebulae, and only the planet is clear (Giving a speed boost near it). When I first implemented it, deceleration was not a feature of the game. So I'm going to have to think of something else soon.

It is coming for sure, and don't worry the drive system will be the least of the worries. It's the teleporter I'm worried about. Inertialess drive is like having infinite (or very high) acceleration and a reasonable top speed. So I think I can get it to feel very similar in that respect.

Sprite completed for Zoq-Fot-Pik

Will probably do a couple more sprites before another release, as it's the part I most enjoy :)

Alright, I know nobody wants to say it, but I will: Is this mod still in development?
