Re: Money

Many of the missions will offer possibilities to boost your ship equipment by one class. This affects just about everything: engines, shields, lasers, and missiles and will happen multiple times for the same equipment. If your ship is already fully upgraded, you'll get a lesser board or no reward. F...

Re: Source code no longer available?

Just a quick note, searches should now work properly for all words. A forum this small doesn't need "common word" restrictions.

Re: Source code no longer available?

I apologize for the delay in responding - I am currently extremely busy and haven't been able to check in here for a while. The lead developer decided to take the source code down in 2014. Looking at the log, r293 made in October 2011, looks like it was the last modification made to the public depos...

Re: Some questions

There are several ways I can think to answer this question. This project was developed using Visual C++ 2008/2010 with scripting in LUA and several allegro graphic libraries. From what I understand, professionals are still using C++ a majority of the time in order to have the power to optimize their...

Re: City of the Ancients?

You are on the last quest of the game for better or worse. Once you are done with this final mission, the endgame description is given in a two-part message at starport. Like several other quests, this one is a "talk to all aliens and compile hints" that lead you to go a certain star system, a certa...

Re: genetic smaples`

Responded to your private message about this - the coalition will provide 2 samples without any combat and you can destroy pirates to get the last one. The F10 key only works with a debugging version of the game. Send me a p.m. if you want a copy I cut most fleets down by a factor of 10X in the 1.03...

Re: New Member - Some Questions !

Take a look at starflt.com but be aware that it is very spoiler rich if you are actually playing the game. Minimal steps to beat the game: http://www.starflt.com/tables/index.php/starflight2/beat-game-steps/ And yes, many things from the remake were cut. Encounters in space have the capability of pe...

Re: Newbie--Help

The message gives you scrambled coordinates of a second base that you must visit. Returning the artifact found at the second base will allow you to succeed at this mission.

I'll send you a PM with spoilers.

Re: Science mission 47? Threatening actions

Description (part 1) and Description (part 2) are the end-game sequence broken up into two parts simply because of length limitations. Spoiler safe hint: the first part is more or less dialogue on what will happen in the near future. The second part visually describes what actually is happening arou...
