According to Memory Alpha, the use of "sir" to address female officers is technically correct: memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Military_parlance Janeway indicated her distaste for this form of address in the Voyager pilot, but this doesn't invalidate it's usage in general. There is no simple way around the issue of how the…
In my experimentation back then, I saw that the items would persist between maps, and that dialogue of the receiver could vary according to whether or not the player actually had the item. There might be some potential for branching between maps offered here.
I was playing around with the Neverwinter Foundry a number of months ago, and it had some interesting features that would be nice to see here:* Assets could be rotated around all three axes, not just the Y axis. * There was an NPC behaviour called "Follow", which was similar to Patrol, but would cause the NPC to follow the…
The qualification for rewards does seem to be related to the number of plays, but it can happen even while a mission is in the review area. I have a test mission where I try out new ideas for maps and fx that I have marked "Please do not play or review." Despite the fact that I am the only one who "plays" in this mission,…
I am no longer opposed to any particular inclusion...it doesn't look like TOS anymore, anyhow. Seriously. An invasion armada (and not one wave) from the future swoops in and takes on a couple of 23rd century ships + one from the future? I would prefer subtle and tangential use of the future threat, but I recognize that…
much fewer and a little stronger :) **Edit*** I liked the old EV suit thing (seemed like the old show) * Was the Tholian ship a dressed reworking of the (old) modern one? No problems..it worked. * That final battle was way out of control. I'm one of those folks that loves the original series. I asked for the Star Trek…
Good Science Fiction isn't about the technology. The lasers, phasers, computers, or aliens are truly irrelevant. Good Science Fiction uses these tools to hold a mirror up to society as it exists in the present. It shows the warts and the hopeful things. Star Trek (I will not call it TOS, as that was not it's name) was good…
Off the top of my head... Number One from the Cage and the Menagerie was female.... T'Pau WAS all of Vulcan.... The original series was about breaking through, and creating an equal playing field. There were other types of starships mentioned, even if not shown. The vessel mentioned in Bread and Circuses was not called a…
That's TAS, not TOS. A Caitian never appeared on the original series. The devs appear to be paying homage to the original series with this new expansion, given that it is the 50th anniversary of that series. It makes sense (at least to me, a fan of that series) that they are confiining themselves to the races found in that…
It is difficult to show a TOS Caitian, as it never appeared in the original series. Given that the new expansion is a nod to the 50th anniversary of that series, I don't have a problem if the devs want to generally stick to that show's parameters.
That's why I think that a Foundry-only Lockbox might work. The authors have no control over loot drops, so the potential that bad missions would be made to exploit the reward would be decreased. And if they put something in the Lockbox that people have been asking for, such as a chance at a playable Borg Cube, then I'm…
They could always monetize the Foundry after the same fashion as they monetize the rest of the F2P game, by selling Foundry-related items; for example, they could create Lockboxes that are only available by playing Foundry missions. By putting some nice equipment in the boxes that is unique to those boxes, they might…
do you mean Cordwainer Bird? https://youtu.be/qLIBtrBn2yU I'll admit a soft spot for this series, even if it's because a young guy watched it when it came out :)
Not all of the assets have their co-ordinates set to the base of the object; for example, the co-ordinates for the Space Volumes are set to the centre of the cube. If you can't align the objects by treating the co-ordinates as being set to base, try calculating the centre of the object and using that. Also, I'm not…
The Foundry is a simple set of tools that is designed to permit untrained folks to produce their own game maps and missions. My guess is that the editor that the devs use would be too complex for the untrained author to use, similar to Unreal Engine (which you can check out for free at…
