A few ideas for building decals. Since spacecraft have ship name and all that.

• Building type name
  
• Building name
  
• City name (when in a city)
  
• World name
  
• System name
  

• Building type icon
  

• Sector name
  
• Galaxy name
  

I believe on of the tenets of Hazeron design is that players should have control over the ship equivalent to that of NPCs?

Currently, NPC navigators are able to plot a course to coordinates, but players can only select systems which are visible in sector view. It would be nice to be able to define an arbitrary point in a more reliable way than the current "click on the map" mechanism.

A radar building seem to call out ATC messages while it is still under construction.
Also even when it has no power.

Useful to get rid of pirates, but feels weird.

Not tested, but it might also make the system survey when you have an observatory? Also maybe it even detect emissions?

I just had my whole crew wiped out because a monster had a QL255 disease.

It appeared on my bridge and infected some of my crew. Because crew always have their helmet visors open unless in a vacuum, they quickly infected each other. When a crewman fell unconscious from the damage, another crewman came to carry him to the sickbay, infecting everyone else on their way to the sickbay. Other crewman started to fall unconscious, summoning uninfected crew from other parts of the ship to the infected area.

Meanwhile my troops were all just standing around watching. Since they always have their helmet visors closed, they weren't affected by the disease at all. The monster was killed within seconds after appearing thanks to the troop posted on the bridge, but that didn't help against the disease that wiped out the crew.

Anyway, to the actual suggestion.

If you have a sickbay on the ship, and the medical console is manned. I suggest that the medical crewman call out an alert when a disease is detected on the ship. All crewmen, officers and passengers should close their visor if they have them to prevent infection. Sick people should report to the sickbay for treatment if antitoxin is in stock.

I would expect spacecraft to be listed in the tree-list along side cities.

A side-effect is that when you click on a spacecraft in the search result, you aren't taken to where the ship is.

The bug where a building is treated as being quality level one instead of it's actual quality when producing materials is back again. A Q243 treatment plant on a Q255 source of myrathane is producing quality 128 myrathane. The city where this bug is occurring is creatively named "Perfect Myrathane".

3DS Import
The 3DS importer has a bug when importing models with parts that have a transformation matrix. When any unit of measure other than feet is chosen, the parts are not positioned properly.

Fixed an error when applying unit of measure scaling to transformation matrices.

Empire 0 Capture Ship
Empire 0 should not be able to capture spacecraft.

Empire 0 avatars no longer trigger the capture sequence when sitting at the helm of a spacecraft.

Empire 0 Build Ships
Empire 0 should not be able to manufacture spacecraft.

Spacecraft factories will no longer make spacecraft for empire 0.

Political Stance on Star Map
The star map highlights spacecraft based on their political stance toward the star map's empire. This is backward from the way it highlights other things with political stance.

Fixed backward political stance check when tallying spacecraft in a system.

Wiki Image Upload Bug
Images cannot be uploaded to the wiki.

Fixed a file permissions error introduced when the wiki was moved to the new server.

Farm Animals
New style farms never spawn a live farm animal.

Finished animal spawn code at new style buildings. Like old style buildings, they will spawn one or two farm animals, depending on the manufacturing process. Most animal processes spawn one animal. The process to make Animal Carcasses spawns two live animals, one male and one female.

Search Star Map
A search function was requested.

Search function added to star map to search sector names, system names, system catalog names, city names, city empire names, spacecraft names, and spacecraft empire names.

Catalog Names
It was requested that the catalog names of solar systems be shown in more places, particularly for those that have been given a name.

Solar system catalog names now appear...

• XML Output tagged as 'catalog', if the catalog name is different from the system name; otherwise it is omitted.
  
• Mission travel orders user interface now shows system catalog names.
  
• Star map places tree control shows catalog name with system name.
  

The icons on the starmap that indicate spacecraft are showing Weltreich spacecraft as enemy, but on the "System Spacecraft Report" window they show as friend.

This is because the Weltreich empire has me set as enemy right now, and I have them set as friend.

What do people use as a base unit for their models?
Meters? Centimeters? Something in between?
I was aiming for 10cm as it seems to be good unit for a single small ingame object.
But it got me wondering.
