I think it's about time Alex updated the main menu. There's little variety of ships shown there, and the ships that do appear use ancient (and now impossible) variants.

I honestly like it this way.  It's like looking into a time capsule.

I like that aspect of it too, it's neat


But, I do need to get this fixed up at some point - mainly so that total-conversion-style mods aren't forced to load up all the vanilla ships because the hulls are used in the title screen - and so that those same mods can use their own hulls there.

I just saw a venture with 3 mjolner cannons

That'd be kinda cool if the menu screen constantly played a small battle, with ships spawning in, fighting, and if destroyed, despawn a moment later, otherwise they fly to the other side of the screen and retreat.

Yeah, nothing wrong with copying Space Pirates & Zombies, which in-turn copied Weird Worlds: Return to Infinite Space.

Yeah, S.P.A.Z does it, I've seen a couple other games have such things too, usually small simple RTSs or tower defence games have such battles looping over and over. But, I can sit there for hours watching the little battles. Better yet, if they were made into screensavers, then I wouldn't even need to start up the game to watch them.

Transcendence actually made a screensaver out of the game/engine, haha. It's awesome.
