Thanks.

Ah...I see where your going. I thought you were implying that the upgreade
itself should be doing that. Interestingly, I don't see a change of
production even when I have my taxes set at 200 gold versus 0. So, I'm not
sure if that's a bug, but...

Greetings Hayden.

Morale impacts your production of resources, however. With 100% morale, I
should be getting 20 units of crop per hour, but it seems to be stuck at a
static 5 per hour.
Can anyone look at their production screen and tell me if they're getting
appropriate amounts providing they've the requisite upgrades and 
buildings?

Hi,
I'm not sure about the crop thing, but morale is only changed through
means
of taxes; thus it has nothing to do with the Grain Mills, Iron Foundries,
etc that you might build.

Greetings Travis et al.

I'm playing Devana (the modified version), and have built a grain mill 
and

upgraded my first farm to level 1, but my crop yield is still 5 units per
hour with morale at 100%. Anyone have any clue if that's a bug or a
failing

crop

that's stuck at 5.

Re: [Audyssey] The Crop of Devana

2010-02-09 Thread Travis Siegel
You'll notice that your crop acts as a kind of controller for the rest  
of the resources.  I'm not sure why it was configured this way, and I  
have considered changing it, but as of yet, I've not modified that  
piece of code.
What happens, is that crop (being the main product) takes a hit every  
time you upgrade other products.  It does get a boost from other  
things though, so you'll notice it fluxuating from time to time as you  
build, upgrade, and continue playing.  You'll always need to upgrade  
your crop more than the other products before you see it increase in  
proportion to the other items.  Again, this code came from the initial  
version, and I've not modified it's behavior, though I have thought  
about it.  I find this behavior a little counterintuitive.
However, it does make sense when looked at from a certain angle, which  
is why I've (up to now) left it alone.
If folks as a whole think this needs changed, then I'll certainly see  
what can be done, but for now, you'll need to remember crop is the  
driving force, and you'll need to upgrade crop further to get the same  
results.

[Audyssey] Any Begin2 fans out there?

2010-02-09 Thread Zachary Kline

Hi All,
I just thought I'd put this out and see if anybody's still interested in 
this old game.  For those who haven't read backissues of Audyssey in a 
while, it's an extremely detailed simulation of tactical combat in the 
Star Trek universe which is almost completely accessible.
The game was originally written for Dos but has recently been revived by 
one of its original authors.  The Windows version isn't accessible as of 
yet, but the author plans to do that once it starts becoming more than 
just a straight conversion.  I absolutely love this game, its atmosphere 
is remarkable as is the level of detail and replay value.  Most 
conveniently, it is one of the games that I'm able to play since making 
the switch to Linux as my primary opperating system a little while back.
If anybody's interested in getting this up and running, there's a yahoo 
group which is quite well-frequented.  That group is beginstarshipcombat. 
To subscribe, you'll want to email 
beginstarshipcommbat-subscr...@yahoogroups.com.
The game itself can be found various places.  A quick Google for Begin: 
Tactical Starship Simulation will turn up one such, which also includes a 
nifty blow-by-blow walkthrough of a battle.

Enjoy,
Zack.

Re: [Audyssey] devana and the siegelsnest

2010-02-09 Thread Travis Siegel
The version of Devana I've modified to make it more accessible is at:
http://www.thesiegelsnest.us/devana/
I've added things to make it possible to tell what's under construction, and 
put alt or title tags on all images (except for some related to the world map) 
and generally cleaned up the interface here and there to help vi folks better 
understand what's happening.
The one at devana.eu is the original site, and I play there too,
only I have a lot easier time playing the modified one, because I don't have to 
guess at what's happening in some cases.
Plus, recently, the devana.eu copy seems to have introduced a few bugs recently.
For instance, when I have 3 or 4 buildings constructing at the same time, 
sometimes I find that devana.eu won't correctly track those buildings,
and I get stuck with less resources, but no completed building.
I've not seen any mention of it on the forums over there, so I'm a little 
surprised about that,
But regardless, it's an excellent game, so feel free to play at whichever site 
is easiest for you.
http://www.devana.eu is the original site, and
http://www.thesiegelsnest.us/devana
is the one I've modified, so any errors or omissions are mine.
If you do have issues, please drop a note in the forums, and I'll see if I can 
fix any issues.

Hi.

i'm afraid I'm not sure with jaws, but the game did work with hal. To those 
who know more about jaws than i do, world of legends runs entirely in a 
console style window,  though it was developed comparatively late on, so 
this is presumably an issue with jaws and console windows.


Hope someone can help with this.

I am sertainly interested.
I have no access to dos anymore but if you could give me a link to the author 
website to look at his stuff in reguards to the windows version I may do that.
I can not however subscribe to any more groups.
I am on several gaming, test help and tech groups.
I had to unsub from music and book sharing groups as well as a chat group 
because I was getting about 1000 jmessages a week.
if I add all the testing sperts up I can get up to 300 a day so as  you can see 
its a bit much.
Further cutbacks may still be on the cards though not sure what those could be.
Part of this is I have no life at all, and no job to speak of.
so yeah sertainly am interested but hmph.

conversion.  I absolutely love this game, its atmosphere is remarkable as is 
the level of detail and replay value.  Most conveniently, it is one of the 
games that I'm able to play since making the switch to Linux as my primary 
opperating system a little while back.
If anybody's interested in getting this up and running, there's a yahoo group 
which is quite well-frequented.  That group is beginstarshipcombat. To 
subscribe, you'll want to email beginstarshipcommbat-subscr...@yahoogroups.com.
The game itself can be found various places.  A quick Google for Begin: 
Tactical Starship Simulation will turn up one such, which also includes a 
nifty blow-by-blow walkthrough of a battle.
Enjoy,
Zack.

The version of Devana I've modified to make it more accessible is at:
http://www.thesiegelsnest.us/devana/
I've added things to make it possible to tell what's under construction, 
and put alt or title tags on all images (except for some related to the 
world map)
and generally cleaned up the interface here and there to help vi folks 
better understand what's happening.

The one at devana.eu is the original site, and I play there too,
only I have a lot easier time playing the modified one, because I don't 
have to guess at what's happening in some cases.
Plus, recently, the devana.eu copy seems to have introduced a few bugs 
recently.
For instance, when I have 3 or 4 buildings constructing at the same time, 
sometimes I find that devana.eu won't correctly track those buildings,

and I get stuck with less resources, but no completed building.
I've not seen any mention of it on the forums over there, so I'm a little 
surprised about that,
But regardless, it's an excellent game, so feel free to play at whichever 
site is easiest for you.

http://www.devana.eu is the original site, and
http://www.thesiegelsnest.us/devana
is the one I've modified, so any errors or omissions are mine.
If you do have issues, please drop a note in the forums, and I'll see if I 
can fix any issues.

[Audyssey] So anybody still playing core exiles?

2010-02-09 Thread Darren Harris
I am and am still enjoying it!

Am currantly at lvl34, have nearly 3000 cr to my name and am just
wanting that new ship that nice multi role one.

I'm extracting a ton of stuff making full use of the gbm although I'm not
putting up contracts yet. For now I'm quite happy to make my own res and
sell them off to make money. Boy I'm making a ton right now I can tell you!
Also the irc channel helps a great deal with all that. 

So anybody else still playing? Where are you all at.

[Audyssey] updates

2010-02-09 Thread shaun everiss
Hi all.
there are updates for windows today, also the directx is updated, xact xaudio 
and x3daudio.
I write this because when you  update your games will not work.
You must update first then reinstall directx, maybe there were updates for 
that, I don't know, waiting for my patch site to put reports out but just would 
let people know.

[Audyssey] programming language (powerbasic classic for $49)

2010-02-09 Thread Travis Siegel
Since powerbasic has a new version, (9.0) , the old version 8.0 is on sale now.
Initially $169, you can buy the classic version for just $49 now.
You can read all about it at 
http://www.powerbasic.com
Anyone who wants a modern fully operational powerful language, but the 
simplicity of basic really should check this one out.
You'll see why after you read it's description.
I've been a user of their products for many many years, and have had nothing 
but excellent results.
(unfortunately) I don't work for them, so this is not a promotion, simply an 
attempt to inform.

Re: [Audyssey] devana and the siegelsnest

2010-02-09 Thread Hayden Presley
One thing I definitely like about Devana is the interface. Granted, I only
have a level 3 town hall, so I can't do much besides continue to build my
city, but I have found that the interface is very compact and easy to
navigate. Only thing is, I would like a heading just before the town so I
don't have to arrow through it.
Best Regards,
Hayden

Re: [Audyssey] programming language (powerbasic classic for $49)

2010-02-09 Thread James Dietz
Python is awesome. Check out SFML (sfml-dev.org). You won't be able  
how to learn to make games from that site, but python + sfml are the  
two reasons why my project is moving forward at all. THey don't have a  
mac build on the site, but I think one can be built from source.


The one thing about Python (python.org) is that it uses indentation  
for most code. NVDA announces tabs whe you turn punctuation on, and  
I'm sure there's something in JAWS to announce formatting changes.  
JAWS is probably more flexible in that regard (announcing multiple  
spaces for instance). I don't know about other windows screenreaders.
