I haven't gotten a chance to work on the fighters much this week. Instead, I have been updating our game balance system in preparation for adding a bunch of new items for DG loot and a rebalance of what drops as DG loot. With a good enough balancing system, it should be very easy to add lots and lots of different items, and I think as long as nothing is broken, it should only make the game better.

Also, while in the middle of working on the fighters, I stumbled upon a memory optimisation that I can make on the server which should save about 40 megs of memory. So I have been working on that a lot, even though it's a bit of a project. Hopefully this will help everything run smoother.

Also did more work on the 2006 finances for the tax return.

Woot, DG fix:D Can you have a look over the peacemaking skill and the way it affects scanners? Doesn't seem to be working too well.

Sounds awesome Jeff, keep up the great work

How's the finances looking? Earning any money?

YAY thanks Jeff keep up the good work

comon, you know this is the l337ness. red displays anger, oj is NB's color, cyan is for gays green, purple, blue, black, olive, and Dblue are unreadable. and I dont like yellow

but seriously, this is a great update. with all the new glas we can have mre diversity on w3 drops, instead of ubers farming a DG for a "mabey" drop

Actually, cyan is one of the base colors used in printing.. purple-pink however, is gayness... congratulations.

Please make the DG fix a first priority. Its annoying getting silver thorax every drop in a df 100 dg and crap drops from mf forgones and bg...

Also, could a mod delete all of that spam about colours from Goz's first post to Thyme's?

What about introducing bar drops and other commod drops. I have found dementium a few times. Gold bar here and there could be nice.

Thx again Jeff, you have really turned the game around this uni

JEFF FOR EMP

dunno about gold bars but i have gotten silvers from barbe rouge.

but he is a "boss" and silver bars arent that great anyway

I would like to see gold bars have a chance of dropping in DF 200+

and mabey even platinum ones in DF 350+ (but a much smaller drop rate)

I would take 1 energon or quantumum over juxes and gimmos any time.

since items liek arabia torps, gimmos and other things etc etc. why bnot make them combineable?

like 5 gimmos make a "greater immoulation" (prolly x1.5 stats). and 2-3 greater gimmos makes the "greatest immoulation" (x2 stats of the first gimmo) eh?

I say add more tiny gear.

Add Micron DWOs and Micron stuff.

GET RID OF JUXES, ARIBA TORPEDOs, THOSE FUCKING USELESS ASS CHARGERS, and Buyable Items like Ice Slugders, Fire Cannons and Blowworms.
