<t>It is not a bad movie and, as I said, my children loved it.I have found it a bit too long and, imagine, the boring parts (and characters) were often the ones that had been added to the original story.Now my children are reading the books. They have the right age, I do not think I would appreciate ...

<t>My children were happy.I myself think that those who messed with the original storyline were not at the same level of the original author.Mind well, they had clearly good intentions but the result were way sub-par.The most difficult part of the movie (theoretically) were the green men and they ...

Most mean not all of them? What are the friendly ones? Why they are not the one used?BTW Modelio seemed to me much more accessible but maybe it is somehow crippled?

If you think so. I think, as I show with my posting, that there are a lot of use cases that ...

<t>Use cases for a 4X Space game are pratically infinite.Between the real user and the other non-human-being actors it will be a very big work.I was starting with packages top-down and the data-model bottom-up to grossly define the breath of the project.BTW I can't find a way to create sub-packages ...

If you do not like to communicate through ICQ I cannot help you much.OpenAmeos has a well organized documentation. On a windows machine you will find the Documents in C:\OpenAmeos10.2\Documentation\UMLEVALThis is a kind of tutiorial that gives you some hints how to use ...

R.I.P.

OK, I have installed OpenAmeos and now I'm feeling quite lost.In Modelio I was able to bluff my ignorance better .Can you create a few packages in OpenAmos like the 'Another game instance' and the 'Services' ones and send me the file?Just to break the ice

I'm quite a fan of the asyncronous diplomacy system of MoO3. It was a simple and efficent way to give the feel that diplomacy between different races distant hundreds of light-years would be different from what we have today.

For the package diagram model I use Modelio (free edition) (http://www.modeliosoft.com).I'm quite new to UML so if you you think that OpenAmeos is better I will move in that direction (will try it ASAP).

For smaller systems I use OpenAmeos [url]http://www.openameos.org[/url] that runs on Windows and Linux. Its a bit old but development is going on as I could see in the project trackers.For larger systems I use ArtisanStudio that is a commercial tool.One of the important ...

Yes,good ideas. Even a good idea to use UML for development. I am a fan of it. Created a web-server from scratch with an UML-Tool. Maybe I can help you a bit. What kind of UML-Tool you are using?Are you working on windows or on linux?Even I have been off for a while, I am ...

<t>Before to explain my proposal I have to point out that it is meant for GRAND STRATEGIC space games. I mean games where the player is managing dozens of worlds and other habitats in a hundred of light years volume.That means that it is impossible to use the 'Real Time' terminology so I will use ...

Some interesting posts here bertipa. With communication, I think this could be implemented in a game to make it more realistic. But there would be a downside, the game would take forever to play and it would make head-2-head play with real players almost impossible ...

<t>Hi everybody, I'm working on a comprehensive and modern analysis for a 4X Grand Strategy Space game and here it is my, admittedly rough, output until now:UML entity model:http://www.gliffy.com/publish/3098094/UML package diagram:[attachment=1035:UML_1.jpg]and this is the informal brainstorming ...
