I does indeed, looks like I made one of those 'ass out of you and me' assumptions.  Working on some further world background now, everything from the environment to traffic to merc groups and famous bounty hunters and assassins.

I tend to trust my spreadsheet to do the calculations and if an error creeps in it does not get caught. Working on some further world background now, everything from the environment to traffic to merc groups and famous bounty hunters and assassins.
I am not sure if that is good or bad. famous bounty hunters sound like people to be avoided.

That they are.  Just came back from a two day trip to check out an apartment in another county (nope, not the one with the steel bars  I'm hoping I'll dodge that one), back to work now.

By the way, a little explanation on the latest modification/sample setting. The reconnaissance drones are only meant to scout ahead, serve as artillery spotters if necessary, and provide an early warning about incoming enemy aircraft. I purposely made sure not to give them any offensive ability so as not to tread on our drone rigger's feet; they're there strictly as support. The special effect is that there are five of them, and they run on batteries with a life of roughly half an hour (35 minutes), after which they return to M.A.X. and dock to recharge (rather than vanishing as per the standard assumption).

Oh, more notes. I've decided on most of M.A.X.'s standard load-out.
Dual-Purpose Mine Launcher Micro Missile Pod Reconnaissance Drones Super SAM Pack
The fifth one will vary depending on the mission parameters. Of course, the above list is only the standard array and would be swapped out as needed.

Right, I know, been busy getting a new place and stressed out. But I tell you what; either this game is up and running by monday, or I'm shutting it down to keep you guys from having to just wait around on something that seems never to happen.

Sorry guys, I tried to make an opening post repeatedly over the weekend, with no luck. My creative juices are at an all time low, just too stressed out currently. So I'm requesting that this be moved to Unfinished Games for now, then I got a couple of months before deletion to figure it out. If I find another way to make a go at it I'll then send out PMs to each of you asking if you're still interested.
That is all for now, sorry for letting you down.

No worries sir, I'll be here when you're ready. And hey, look on the bright side, that's gotta be a GG record for creation thread length!

That's... an interesting thing to be proud of, but whatever floats your boat.
