I'll whip up some concepts for a OP-1 Likho with the OP-3 singularity centerpiece in a bit.

[q]...I was astonished in your last thread at what appeared to be minimal and only arms-length help, support, or encouragement for your interest...It's disappointing to see such potential seemingly neglected...Unfortunate and frustrating...[/q]

That's just the nature of open-source development. GoogleFrog and the rest are volunteers with their own lives, not 24/7 paid tech-support. I started this knowing that I might have to dig up a majority of my own information.

Can I claim convergent design? My Sci-Fi RPS experiece prior to Zero-K was entirely StarCraft franchise; the visible ball of energy idea was more inspired by the Protoss Tempest.

Terrible unit gameplay, but nice eye-candy.

[q]The forum is a fairly bad way to organise these things, and chat is worse. Tickets and PRs on github are much less likely to be forgotten. [/q]

[q]Actually, chat would be great. I find chat quite good for discussing artsy stuff or anything requiring fairly high-frequency back-and-forth, like figuring out why an animation script doesn't work.[/q]

I'm novice when it comes to collaborative communication, hence why I'm on the forum--it's just the first place I knew of. If you have a better place to communicate, I'm willing to follow you.

[q]...It also needs to look like a guided missile, for consistency. I am not keen on adding lups to a projectile, as it is untested and adding projectiles probably has some global overhead. You can try for fancy projectiles, but I was more imagining that the singularity in the plane was used up by cramming it into a warhead just before it is fired.[/q]

[q]The projectile for a glowing sphere can be a spherical mesh with an emissive texture, or just a ceg ball. This is not complicated and neither of those approaches require LUPS, though distorts would be awesome.[/q]

I wasn't planning on anything more complex than the ball-o'-light like the one in the Singularity Reactor. It's open to change, though.

[q]That said, all the bombers could be redone, in which case consistency with the current bombers is less of a worry.[/q]

...I can concept some redesigns for the other bombers, too; that way, we have a plan for visually-consistent updated bomber models, even if the other models aren't being produced yet. It's not a terrible idea.
