offline training simulator improvement ideas

Nov 13, 2014 jopelinski link
i have been thinking that the training simulator should have like its own system and a couple of stations and some hive bots in some sectors for offline combat training and that the stations should sell like some of the basic ships and basic weps, basically a smaller version with just one sytem of the online universe with a much smaller amount of things to buy, for example it would be like a system with hive queens and other hive bots plus a couple of stations with some weapons and ships like the vulture, the warthog, the centurion etc.
and some of the lower tier weapons such as the yellow jacket missiles and stingray homing missiles and the plasma cannon hx.
for combat training and combat strategy development and to test some of the ships and weapons

does anyone care about that if the server somehow crashes that u still could play the training simulator and train ur combat styles and strategies?

I've actually always thought that GS should sell a scaled down verson of VO as a pay an offline game. Perhaps either as multiple versions or as expandable.

I'm pretty sure the offline training simulator can't even run a single bot. That's why the target ECs just sorta sit there and do nothing.

hoe hard could it be to convert a system to an offline version AND code the bots for offline?
i know a little bit of java and android development

how hard could it be to fix war convoy bots, deneb cap ships, editing weight, add a ring of systems, port to iPhone, Guild stations, player to player trade via capship cargo holds etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc

get in line

I think you're underestimating what runs on the server-side of Vendetta Online.

I've been a programmer for around 20 years and manage programmers for the last 10, and I cal tell you this:

If a programmer says that he doesn't really know what the program/feature entails, but he is sure that he can program it in X months, except some minor details like the gui, there is only one option:

FIRE THE PROGRAMMER
