Federation Commander

I know this sounds a little silly, but is it at all possible we could do this? I have some ideas of how it could be done. If givin as a freebie for registered users, it could be a good way to get people motivated to buy it. And if it cost something, I would buy it.

I know, it might be hard for ABD to spend all of that time for something that might e a flop, but is it at all possible we might see this sometime in the future?

Well, ADB cannot do it as none of us know how to program a computer, but we have previously told Paul Franz that we'd love to see him offer SFBFOL.

I would love to do this. I need to think about what is needed. This was already talked about on the podcast. So I have a good idea for the basic interface.

Come to think of it, Maybe Eric does know how. I will ask him if he ever comes back to work. (His mother is very ill and Eric has been making it into the office about three or four hours per week.)

Steve,
If Eric will be doing this for sure, please tell me. I hate duplicating effort.

I haven't seen Eric since the last post.

How about this. Assuming Eric shows up this week, I will talk to him about doing this. If he wants to, we'll give him a deadline (if he does not, I'll give you the all clear), and if he doesn't make it, you can take over from there.

So, whats the news on this one? is it still planning to be done?

Eric has a copy of the game and is going to look into implementing an on-line version of it. He said that it would take up to two weeks to either come up with a plan or decide he doesn't want to do it.
