Description
Space based RTS
Note: This game can be quite slow on slower computers, if it is, try changing the performance settings in the options menu.
Eridani is a space based real time strategy where you build your base round the edges of planets. Mine resources from asteroids to build various combat ships and interplanetary missle that are fired from the planets surface (some of which can destroy entire planets!)
Also features "Skirmish Mode" where you can create your own battle in a randomly generated sector.

The problem with ships going around the planet to get to a target really isn't a problem with path finding. I notice that the ships taking the long way around the planet are constantly trying to turn into the planet (until they get about half way around). This is cause they are trying to turn around but the presence of the planet is preventing them. In Essence, this is really a problem with the collisions of objects, not path finding.

This game is kind of inconvenient because ships take the long way around planets and suffer the damage taken by enemy towers, but convenient because your mining drones are excellent battle ships when your command tower is gone (: Great game 4/5

it would be nice to fix when my ships are attacking the planet they don't go around the planet to get to something right next to them

Awesome game, but controlling your units is hard, seperating my artillery from frontline units drove me insane. None the less, fun game
