That's okay. I have a one-week vacation this week (only two days left...), but after that, I will have lots of work to do for school too.

Actually, I didn't have an Elithian word for universe yet... What do you think of 'Aerona'?
To prevent confusion over certain Elithian words, here's a list of Elithian words starting with 'Aer-':
- Elithian / Earth (Plural)
- Aera / Day (Aera)
- Aerii / Year (Aerii)
- Aero / Star (Aero)
- Aeroix / Planetary system (Aeroixii)
- Aerith / Galaxy (Aerithii)

A Jumptech section has been added to the Common Technologies Database.

by **Aegonian** Fri Nov 04, 2011 8:03 pm

The Common Technologies Database has been updated with a section about Data Signatures. It would be nice if everyone created a DS for their ship Very Happy

EDIT: I also added the visual representation of the Jumptech Gate.

i will try to get on that

I've known of this game for a while but only just recently realized how it could be applied to FNE. It's called Starmade, and looks very similar to Minecraft, of course with the exception of building large and small controllable spaceships. It costs $6 at the moment (which I think is around 4 pounds), but the alpha version is currently free.

So how would this be similar to the roleplay? Well, we start out with a limited supply of materials to build a small spaceship with, which we can use to explore and gather materials from asteroids, planets, or destroying enemy ships so we can sell them for money or use them build bigger ships! It would be pretty interesting to have us form and break alliances as we each gain power. We can also build bases on planets (although we would have no one to colonize them, but hey let's use our imagination!)

Of course I haven't actually gotten into the game yet, so I don't really know what it would be like to play first-hand (blame school), but it looks really interesting on YouTube (I love some of the ships on there)! I'd love to give it a try sometime. But I just wanted to post it so if you guys ever want to try FNE out in minecraft or other game you'd know of this game.

Also, I heard Notch abandoned 0x10c, but another group had picked up on the idea and is going to recreate without using his code (it's called Project Trillek), and I honestly can't wait to see their work on it!

And I really have to make a post for FNE.

by **kingnecromancer** Fri Sep 20, 2013 9:46 pm

That. Is amazing.

I shit you not, that looks incredible. I will go where no forumer has gone before and I will download it (Technically by the time you have read this, I will already have, but whatever).

by **thunderpants** Fri Sep 20, 2013 10:16 pm

I have seen this game previously. I will check it out. Later.

by **Aegonian** Sun Sep 22, 2013 11:50 am

That game looks great, I'll try it out soon!

by **thunderpants** Fri Jan 03, 2014 9:48 pm

What happened to this exactly?

by **kingnecromancer** Fri Mar 07, 2014 12:08 am

Okay everyone.

I think that while FNE is a good idea and was fun, it seems we were far more active when we were empire-based. I'm not suggesting we throw everything out the window (as we usually do [which is the bane of our significant progress as a unified forum, mind you]) but rather just give us some window to control the empires and go all imperial again. I still think playing as individual ship commanders is a good idea, mind you.

by **Aegonian** Sat Mar 08, 2014 12:27 pm

I think we were already starting to go in that direction - although there still aren't any real empires, several groups, such as the FPE, have been created which we can control. Perhaps we should speed up this process a bit, creating more of these large groups of survivors, and allowing us to post messages as the leaders of these groups. Eventually, these groups will be able to become true empires again, though it'll be some time before they regain the size and strength of their predecessors.

I actually have a couple of story points already written down for FNE, which include the return of certain groups from the original roleplay which haven't been seen in FNE yet. I'll try to work them out a bit more, and start making some posts in the FNE again once I have a bit more time!

by **thunderpants** Sat Mar 08, 2014 2:10 pm

Yeah my current Goal with the Trinks is to create a permanent space base orbiting Icicles and then begin to clean-up scavenge from the planet.

It shall be known as the Trink Medical and Aid Facility or Valhalla.

Once I have built that, I would be at the stage to run as an empire not a lone ship.

by **Aegonian** Fri Mar 14, 2014 8:48 pm

I've just posted a new post in FNE, in which I've started my transition of a single ship into an empire. I will probably keep posting messages from just the Prevox in addition to empire messages, at least for some time.

I'm also going to introduce both old and new players into FNE, starting with the Theleans in my last post.

by **JorgasElite** Sat Mar 15, 2014 2:36 am

I have posted as well, hopefully we can get this back up and running!

by **kingnecromancer** Sat Mar 15, 2014 7:20 pm

I am back from march break and will begin posting soon!

by **thunderpants** Sun Mar 23, 2014 1:32 pm

Sorry if this has been mentioned and I've forgotten, but what is the time scale given by "2000 AB-79"

I know it's 2000 years post-blast, but is AB-XX, in days or years? I've been treating it as Days, although both months and years might also make sense.

by **Aegonian** Sun Mar 23, 2014 1:46 pm

The last number is indeed used for days, so 2000 AB-79 is the 79th day of the year 2000 After Blast. Do mind that Elithian years (Aerii) are shorter than those on Earth, with only 261 days, or Aera, in a year. Days are also slightly shorter on Elithia, being only 20 hours long.

by **thunderpants** Sun Mar 23, 2014 2:10 pm

Okay thank you, I know it is written somewhere on the forums, but could not find it.

Can we get Elithian Standard Time as a Post in the AED under Miscellaneous?

by **Aegonian** Sun Mar 23, 2014 6:51 pm

There was a thread about the Elithian calender/dating system under 'Additional Information' in the FNE section, though I'm not sure why I had placed it there. I've moved the thread, together with the 'Common Technologies' thread, to the AED now.

by **thunderpants** Sun Mar 23, 2014 7:01 pm

Should we perhaps add subsections to the common technologies to add faction specific common technologies?

Such as the Trink Quantum Cloud processing and my concepts for Trink Weaponry?

Also should the AED be updated to have Pre and Post Blast empires to be done in separate topics? Perhaps labelled with [BB] and [AB]? It would clean it up a lot. Might also help with knowing what's happening with each faction.

by **Aegonian** Sun Mar 23, 2014 7:28 pm

Great ideas! I'll add sections for faction-specific technologies in a bit. I believe you have moderator rights in the AED too, so you'll be able to add Notix and Trink-specific technologies whenever you want.

As for the empires, I'll add BB and AB tags to the existing empires, and create new threads for anyone who wants to add their new empire to the database.

by **thunderpants** Sun Mar 23, 2014 7:35 pm

I was more asking permission, than asking you did it. I didn't want to start an overhaul without your permission.

by **Aegonian** Mon Mar 24, 2014 8:04 pm

Just a heads-up: I'll be quite busy with college the coming few days, so I probably won't be able to write a lot for the FNE. I'll try to get the first draft of the new Alliance treaty out as soon as I can, though!

by **kingnecromancer** Mon Mar 31, 2014 1:05 am

Aeg,

I would like to offer an applause on your most recent post. It is quite the story defining moment and I feel quite hyped just reading it. Bravo!
