Also,
It's been said that the cd autorun menu (matrix menu) is flawed So don't use it to play the game, instead run the sudg executable from your Sudg directory.

Especially when realizing that hds 12 years ago had at best a 10megs capacity.

Even if they still worked today, they wouldn't much help. You couldn't even install an operating system...

Patch 1.2 for the complete version comes with mods that allow you to change the font. The example included is a much better alternative to the old font, and a lot easier to read.

A crossover between massively multiplayer 'Merchant empires' and 'Sudg'.

You can install 1.2 directly.

This is probably the major turnoff.

Shipping.

Like Cranex mentioned, you should sell a downloadable version of the game for a slightly lower price (no cd, no box). Afterall, it's so small in size.

What you should do kahn is download patch 1.2 for the game right now. Mods where implemented into this version so it includes a very detailed readme on how to modify graphics for the game.<br/>

You simply have to make sure you install it in the right folder. The folder that contains the file "sudg.exe".

He probably had the relic, but didn't know where to return it. The AI needs to explore just a much as you do, he must have discovered that system late in the game... too late.

The jump drive is used to move instantly for large distances, but since it's not the fastest drive to move around (explore, patrol, combat) , it can be used in conjunction with the next best drive.

There is a tech tree in the game. Try from the research screen.

It used to be a force field that surrounded the ship, now it's only a small blue dust cloud where the weapon hits.

It would just great to see a more obvious difference.

Make sure the artifact is not simply lower in the list of items you have. When you have too many items, you have to scroll down to see them all.
