[edit] History

[edit] Host 194

New: Cyborg can not assimilate enemy Cyborg.

[edit] Host 188

New: If warp chunnel fails due to lack of fuel you get a log message.

[edit] Host 186

Fixed: Wierd things happen when Cyborg capture a ship that has high guard aboard.

[edit] Host 184

New: Cyborg have a new method of fighting crime.

[edit] Host 177

Fixed: The Cyborg King keeps disappearing and moving around and doing weird things when I put him on a ship.

[edit] Host 169

Fixed: Cyborg med lab keeps turning on.

• Cyborg Version 101 Revision 2 Released

Probe can now hold 100 guests

Explorer can now hold 500 guests

Iron Slave can now hold 50000 guests

[edit] Host 165

New: The limit on how many farms you can build in a turn. It has been replaced with you need 1000 colonists per farm you are building. If you have 100000 colonists on a planet and it has a soil rating of 100, go ahead build 100 farms... The changes to the colonists requirements for running farms (each farm needs 1000 colonists) have really hurt the Cyborg a whole lot, far more than other races. Now I could increase the guest size of one of their small ships so that it would be easier for them to build farms, but what fun would that be... it is not very "Cyborgish" to go out and farm the universe...

Changed: assimilation powers increased. Cyborg colonists can assimilate 1 enemy colonist each up to a limit of 500. If the Cyborg have over 10000 colonists on a planet they can assimilate enemy colonists at the old 5% rate and grab more than 500 a turn.

[edit] Host 162

[edit] Host 127

New: Privateers: Assault Gondala. 200ly range. Kills enemy colonists (10 each). Raid shelter protects 1000000 colonists and undercities protect 100000 colonists. (Yes, those numbers are correct.) Cyborg immune.

[edit] Host 86

Changed: Solorian: They can be assimilated by the Cyborg, but they die instantly.

[edit] Host 85
