Here's a few of mine.

Which HUD is this?

Any ideas?

Who decides if an anarchy is an anarchy? Or a communist state is a communist state? Are the systems labelled communist really all communist? There would seem to be at least three possible approaches: 1) Simplistic : The anarchies really are all anarchies and the label just reflects political reality...

Surely it sounds like just the thing for Zarece?

With a combination of Zero-G technology and modern balloons large orbital cities were created that float in the higher layers of the atmosphere. Zarece consists of superdense gasses not yet fully understood."

Does BPlanets add moons - or does one need an extra .oxp for that? It is compatible with any of the other Moons oxp's?

Why is the wiki Frontier's Zaonce page tagged "Deletion because of capitalisation"?

What does this actually mean?

Can't download this one. Is it any good? Does anybody have a copy of it?

Merlin & Kestrel: Came across this 2009 complaint: ... Someone - Please remodel the Merlin/Kestrel?? I like the ships, but at their current sizes, I don't feel they are fair. Size them on par with the originals, albeit on the lower end, and they'd be nice. No idea what it's about, but just thought ...

Would the tugs that Talisker downloaded http://www.aegidian.org/bb/viewtopic.ph ... 10#p169310 be Adam's Tug-Ships (http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Tug-Ship) or are they more probably something else?

I've been working this rather impressive .oxp into the descriptions of equipment in the wiki.

From what I see Equipment impacts negatively on 3 areas only: volume (ie cargo space), heat (ie cabin temperature) & weight.

What effect does increased weight have?

Congratulations, Sir!

You're right, it could be interesting. Generally, cel-shading is done with only 2 or 3 levels of shade on top of the pure color. But it is totally possible to explore different effects which could give different artistic feelings. What you propose seems akin to the "posterize" function of softwares...

Returning to the question about the role of the EEU and the main drive/engine! The default model, as I see it, would be: Energy generators -> accumulators (energy banks) -> shields Extra Energy Unit and Naval Energy Unit are generators, which imply that engines aren't, and there are core game ships ...

Is this quote correct... Yeah, pretty much. The stock Cobra MKIII has four energy banks (mine has five), and the better the energy unit, the faster your energy banks will recharge. The EEU doesn't replace energy banks. Your current understanding is correct. Now I need coffee! <worships at the shrin...

The discussion above is a trifle too complex for my understanding (not being a programmer, and with no understanding of the coding entrails of the game). Is this quote correct: Extra Energy Units with improved efficiency to standard units can be purchased... (from http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/En...
