Ive added some sunspot and solar flare animations to the dwarf and the giant. theseare just tests in 2.12(5). im worried that the animation might drasticly slow down the scripts if we add one in each star.
BTW i look now and weve gone a long ways from "bobs bad haitcut" Great job team!

I know your shop. I just thought we needed a the costume of a little sprite, that is on the normal flight mode and on the map, which sends a message to the shop window to appear, if the ship touches it. For this sprite we'd need two costumes (flight mode and a smaller one for the map). So before we can implement the shop, we first need to do the art and the programming of this sprite. That was actually my request.
BTW: I think, that the member list on the top of the first page is very outdated. What about asking Kamesh to update it a bit with all the active members from these days?

mabey we should change the post owner to "team Earth"? so we can all update stuff?

I don't think that's possible.
Can anyone upload a .txt data with the usernames and passwords of the team earth dropbox and the scratch account? Everyone could download it then and wouldn't need to ask if he/she forgets or doesn't even the things.

I like the animation. I think we'll need to move to turbo mode anyway. But before we think about the animation, we have to wait until Thrystor is done with his programming. That's more important.

And I am very sorry for my long absence. Kamesh left me in charge, and I haven't doing so well
. I will vow to do better starting right now.
Dasbloekendeschaf, could you please list what is on our agenda?

OK. These are the next things in chronological order.
We need to:
1. Implement a scrolling limit (Thrystor)
2. Implement some more stars (Thrystor)
3. Slow down moving background (Thrystor)
4. Simplify flying engine (Thrystor)
5. Add / Improve star animation (Christian)
6. Change physics for Turbo Mode (?)
7. Draw shop (?)
8. Implement / Improve Thrystor's shop fragment (?)
...
Of course Thrystor doesn't have to do nearly everything. I just thought he'd be interested, because he's one of our best programmers. The fifth plan might effect, that the game will slow down, so I'm not sure if we should really do this.

Can anyone upload a .txt data with the usernames and passwords of the team earth dropbox and the scratch account? Everyone could download it then and wouldn't need to ask if he/she forgets or doesn't even the things.
we can report the post asking an admin to change it. Ive seen it happen. Once i changed a post from my cousin's account to mine (i accidentally forgot to log out at his house
)

Or just leaving a comment on one of Kamesh's projects asking to edit his post. We might have to wait a bit until he checks his notifications again, but I think this would be the easiest solution.

That makes sense, and I agree about the first page.

Good idea.

I might have. I don't know which folder is which.
Now that I look at it, it probably wasn't me. "Old Drafts and Parts" is labeled pretty clearly.

I didn't look at it yet, but did you also slow down the scrolling background and added more stars?

No, I'll go and slow the background down now. I'll add more stars later.

Nevermind. I can't figure the scripts out. Unless I can come up with a better idea, the only solution is to copy the sprites. Could you look at the scripts and try to figure it out?

Thanks, Thrystor. And no I didn't figure the right programming out either. We should concentrate more on other things until someone knows how to. I just worked a bit on a credits section and some bugfixes (V: 0.2.14). As I see, we need the stars and the drawing of the shop next.
