you should REALLY disable the ability to construct the opponents deck or make such matches not count to the statistics, otherwise you can guarantee a quick win on every difficulty: just construct a deck that only contains ships (that cost energy) and no energy structures... the enemy can't win.
under the assumption there would be no space restriction:
I'd say it is turing complete, as we can simulate a turing-mashine as follows:
for any alphabet, encode it in binary using red and blue.
limit those symbols by yellow dots.
use a single green dot to denote the position of the read/write head (it's easy to move it forward/backward)
now, the swiches, and belts can be used to emulate states, wich enables us to build a deterministic TM.
so, yes, the game actually seems to be turing-complete
((it can emulate any turingmashine, so it is one));
Hmm,anyone done the substitution to proove it's turing complete (assuming infinite space / string)? not sure if a DEA + infinite queue works for a turin mashine or if it's less than that
really intrested if it is provable.
is it a bug, or is it really possible to get 41 stars (had 39, missed them in lvl 15 for some reason, so redid 15 and got two stars there... now I have 41)
@ yayyaj: 32 hours, I can on first try, essentially, I could have done it in one hour if I would have not build that shelter, you don't need one, save money till you can buy the m4 and first times trap the slow down one. oh and upgrade the startgun right when you can.
