hmn maybe i go for art first since i like it - and i think i like flash since -— my computer have unity problem whenever i load it up , and FLASH ART and game seem to be alot more neat to the eye - and of course better managerment - i am not to rushing on to bigger graphic yet , i wanna have it smooth and neat and small -- like a good luggages where you can handle thing more easily - in the root and the core , not the skin yet .

and perhaps we can talk to together then? since i really wanna talk to , i mean it not just like i just gonna go out after each comment like other people . SO in the mean time can we talk?

oh and big question — how do i used the macro flash media 8 i just bought it and - it make my mind mess up now -- i saw my friend used it to creating animation and it was awesome but i have no idea how — so can you show me how?

oh and can you show me how did you make this game ? your game , and are those space marine or - some unique setting of your storyline ?( they do have powerfist thought and if those were tyranid they kinda look orange yellow)

no need to go back properly just — what is the at right now project is?

i like flash and it make my computer run easy — so see you in 1 year heh , and i think we can work together then .

one more thing , show me some small spoiler about your full game — please please , are we gonna fight a hive > ork > necron ? or something similar is it gonna be cliff hanging or really full one with storyline , set , graphic , and simplicity ?

is there gonna be full awesome armory ? replay able , actual upgrade ? no addiction? are we gonna used some vehicle to shoot monster? is there even money or full out survival , and mission end reward? are you gonna make some series after it ?

are you gonna give us a really mean boss — not just big health? a carefull land scape level , and detail graphic of our own ship ? woooh , and even awesome intro and cut scene every mission? how long would the game actually be ? 1 hour 10 hour ? 1 week

The plan was for one big campaign going deeper into a derelict. Fighting many variants and types of monster. Big upgrades system and many weapons. I’m not an animator, so while I had some cool ideas for cutscenes I would have had to either spend a lot of time on them or farm them out to someone else.

Hope your experiments are going well and you are enjoying programming.

Yeah thats the issue. In hindsight I should probably have had people enter all the data rather than taking the shortcut as that would behave “as expected”, and you would be able to predict the effects of buying those upgrades rather than having to guess. If you set auto clicks/second to zero then your money earned will remain the same as you change manual power, but that isn’t particularly enlightening either… Thanks for pointing this out, perhaps I’ll add a mode where you enter more information and can use it for prediction, or just fix your current stats and then see the effects of predictions.

The game doesn’t have very complicated formulas (which is why I was able to do this), your effective damage is just your pickaxe’s effective power minus the ore defence. It would be complicated (or at least require you to input lots of factors) to work out your pickaxes real effective power, so thats why I get you to supply an example damage stat as that tells me the combination of everything. From there you can get the actual damage for any ore easily. I made my gold/s calculation use whichever logic matched the g/s the game gives.

I work in eclipse. I didn’t use any tools really, I taught myself programming a few years ago and made a framework which I used to make the calculator. Using an actual set of tools would have been much easier and quicker. Luckily the “art style” didn’t require actually doing anything complex…
