if they ~~~reveal Rey's true parents~~~ after pulling this they're only confirming that everything in this story that's supposedly about liberation and radical action is actually about aristocracy and that's

honestly about the most Disney thing i can think of to do

there's no tension in this film at all beyond the 7-minute range

clearly either 1. holdo has a plan she's not telling anyone or 2. the mysterious ~~~ruffian criminal~~~ guy is going to turn out to be a master codebreaker replacement

and the margarine version of Han Solo humor that is Finn's whole... thing... is not helping

@witchfynder_finder kylo

i like the big goats

@ky0ko this is extremely exciting!

i'm excited for dungeons and dragons tonight

@Tryphon @alcinnz i've been considering using Rust to demonstrate different programming styles in just such a way

ok that gives me a few options:

- a separate firing computer command (or a separate _program_ even, that could be fun and would give users a lot of opportunity to make their own shit) - as jess pointed out this really gives the wwii submarine feel

- primarily using guided weapons and assuming shit can flip around once launched - really comports well with like, you know, physics and logic

- just making people do the math themselves

@catoutofbed ooooooh yeah good call

@catoutofbed well i was originally considering the commander being able to just say, "[ship] attack [target]" or "[ship] attack [target] with [weapon]" but that seems too hands off

on the other hand players will almost never hit anything if they have to do this because it is hard to lead a target you can't visually see

perhaps only short range dumbfire weapons and autoengage at short ranges

then all users would have to worry about is range and speed

@IzzyWithAnIzze :(

hhhhhhm

what if putting more direct control in the hands of the commander

> 1 turn 125
- Malixis turning to heading 125 in 2 turns
> wait
> wait
- Malixis has completed its turn to heading 125
> 1 fire railgun
- Malixis firing its railgun
> wait
- Malixis has fired its railgun
> wait
- Malixis railgun shot fired 1 turn ago struck enemy cruiser Victory

@catoutofbed yeah that's really valid

i was unwilling to dislike it because people tend to dislike it for extremely bad reasons but like

if the tension in your film comes from combat and your tactics are extremely nonsensical your tension is,,, not very much

this is pretty cool

@Elza perhaps this is a good motivation for me to learn German more!
