@Crotale, it was from the latest update. I added new variables for all the spaceship components (built or in the queue) but I didn’t update the variable in that section. All done now though.
This is SCI-FI-Verse so couldn’t there be like a magnetic reason for the asteroid so it could not be deflectded? Like it was drawn to the sun and the earth is just at the wrong place at the wrong time according to space thingies,I’m not all that great on actual science >~< I like sci-fi,just not science,oops. XD

Yes, but I think they want to keep it as grounded in science as they can.

Of course,I’m not good at science as I said,so O dunno if something like that exists or not. 
More new Earth like planets have been found by Kepler. Depending on when we finish this game it’s possible the name could change!

How fast is this spaceship in the game capable of traveling and what is it using for fuel?
I ask because looking at the distances to the Kepler systems I think Tau Ceti might be more plausible given current technologies and understandings of physics.
Off the top of my head, you travel at about 90% light speed (I forget exactly - we have the maths in our plans).
The fuel source isn’t stated: all we know is it’s a tech higher than currently available on Earth. The game takes place 75 years in the future, so the tech is more advanced than now. We’re also going to take a liberty by saying that (Kepler 62e) is the only confirmed life sustainable planet discovered. We chose Kepler 62e originally as it was the most likely candidate at the time. In the past year, other contenders have been discovered, but we’re still in the top 8!

Can’t wait to see what you guys come up with next!
I’ve been focusing on proofreading and debugging Captive of Fortune while it’s in review by CoG, but I’ll be done with that today or tomorrow, at which point I’ll get back to Kepler. There may be a new chapter on my end in around a week or so.

Since I’m not patient enough to wait like four months until I’ve finally got up to the point in Inception where I could insert this illustration (by Andy) into the story, I’ll put it here!

I take it we took some shrooms while working on the spaceship so we could see the universe.
Engineer working on the spaceship while looking at the map of the universe: okay now if we angle the shuttle on launch just so, we may be able to spiral through that nine and then follow the space train track to Kepler.

For the record, I didn’t create the image. I bought it then edited it.
As for its use, you will have to complete Inception to find out. Of course, you are free to speculate with no replies from Sam or myself to confirm or deny your ideas.

I’m sticking we the idea that we’re going to try and fly through the nine and then follow the space train tracks to Kepler. I have you two all figured out. We’ll use these space numbers a rest stops along the journey.
xD Raz you are a true genius.
A new update is out for Inception. The first chapter has gone through my editor so it’s cleaner and more in-depth, and I’ve debugged and proofread the two other chapters. Also, expect the next chapter to be up in about a week; it’ll be 15-20k, and things really start to pick up.

It’s definitely feeling more well rounded with better character development now. Good job!
Just a few things for your review:
Having finished your breakfast, you exit the dining room and head to your room to get dressed. As you As you absently scan your teeth with a cleaning-laser, you decide on which business clothes you’ll wear.
“Wait, what? No one ever told you should be me? you’d be in charge of everything!” you say under your breath, eyes wide.
Still, a large portion of the population has still chosen to keep to their old ways, seeing this new movement simply as a fad. maybe take out one still or replace with different word?
Sharing looks of triumph, you and Humphrey duck behind a some computer parts and raise your blasters at the same time, letting loose dozens of blasts before the mother board finally explodes.

I’ll admit I need to try more paths on the character part of the game. I’ve been so focused on the ship aspect. :3
