I have finished the GUI calculator! The following images show the calculator at different stages. The first image shows what it is like when it is freshly executed from the command prompt, the second image shows some example input, the third image shows the calculations (with calculated probability floored to the nearest integer on account of integer division), and the fourth image shows what happens immediately after pressing the reset button. img32.imageshack.us/gal.php?g=warsim1.pngThe Godmodder, being the one who calculates official results, will use either the earlier text line version or this GUI version upon his discretion. He shall use whichever one he prefers. I will provide updates when asked or as necessary, such as adding support for inserting bonuses individually (as was available in previous versions). Attached to this post should be the compiled class file. All you should have to do is put it on your computer and execute it initially from the command prompt, just like my earlier versions.

Outgoing transmission:Phantom Zero, I urge you not to attack anyone. Here is my proposition: You may have, for your own purposes not including any form of barter or trade, one quarter of all of the Ignosum we refine, from now untill eternity, provided that you lend us military support and protection from the moment of agreement on this pact and onward ever more. Do my bidding in all military matters, and this shall be the case. For now, I would like you to come to my system, you can home in on this transmission.
Outgoing Transmission: This is Micro Farad, monarch of the Republic of Faridia. We have discovered two races, are there any others out there?
Outgoing Transmission: Droids, thank you for your alliance. You have still not responded to our request for trade.
General----- Credits: 500 PMT grade Ignosum: 4/10 ton PAG grade Ignosum: 6/10 ton Locke----- Development: 1/5 Refinery Mining Operations:1 Refineries:2 Faraday----- Development: Prospecting 2/5 Ships----- 1 trade ship at home of droids 5 military ships at Locke 1 military ship at Faraday 2 colonizers on the arm clockwise of ours between Cryto and C-2
Outgoing Transmission: What at first we took to be an empty star system appears in our telescopes to be sending a diplomatic, a trade, and a military ship. Empty star systems do not do this. Who are you? What are you called? Why are you coming here? [Cloians that's you]
Can anyone provide a summary? This is getting confusing..

The new system, the name of which I shall let VIROS decide, is helping with P42. It is now progressing at 3 research things per post.
Project 42: 24/42
Sirian Dollars: 1000ƒ
Also, the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation contacts whichever empire it was that made the post above this one, asking them what they have to trade.

IMPORTANT GAME PROPOSAL DO NOT IGNORE
I HAVE FOUND MYSELF SITTING ON THE COMPUTER WAITING FOR POSTS.
BY ASSESSING THE RATE OF PROGRESS, THIS IS PROBABLY COMMON.
I WISH TO BE ABLE TO POST THEN CARRY ON WITH MY LIFE WITHOUT FORFEITING IN THE GAME.
THEREFORE, I PROPOSE THAT WE PUT A ONE POST PER 24 HOUR CAP ON EVERY PLAYER.
THIS WILL A. ENSURE WE CAN HAVE LIVES B. ENSURE WE CAN PERFORM IN OUR RESPECTIVE ROLES C. ENSURE THAT ALL HAVE AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY D. ENSURE THAT IZACQUE DOES NOT EXPLODE
I FOR ONE WOULD RATHER QUIT THAN CONTINUE PLAYING IN THIS STATE.
IN THIS EVENT THE FARIDIAN RACE'S SENATE WILL ELECT PARADOX AS THE FARIDIAN'S NEW LEADER.
-Micro Farad

Aha, so you ARE listening to my argument! Sorry chap, this is generally how forum games go. Any time a limit like that is put on it, it invariably dies. Just the other day, you said that the more people post the more fun, and I warned you about this, then you denied it. Well, sorry to say I told you so, but...
Project 42: 27/42
Progress is zooming by with our latest system, which VIROS has yet to name.
Sirian Dollars: 1000ƒ
Also, Veers, I'm working on embedding that calc in a webpage. If I do it right, we should be able to embed it in the Forum Game footers!

I generally dislike the I told you so POV. I even conceded to you. But still you insist on being rude. So be it.
Senate: On this day, we the Senate, representatives of the Faridians, in the Democratic Republic of Faridia, do declare a new regime appropriate for the preservation of our social contract. The reign of Micro Farad has lasted far to long, and we see fit, though in no insult to Micro Farad, to deny his continued sovereignty. Instead we accept the leadership of Paradox, being our closest ally. Paradox, your duty is to first, provide the Faridian's basic rights (Life, Liberty, and Property), second to provide equality of opportunity, and third, to further the long term success of the Faridians. Do you accept these duties in full?

outgoing message: Phantom Zero: i agree but don't give us 1/4 of you ignosum for eternity we don't need that much.....
Deckhand: warp engines complete sir!
Phantom Zero: Ok home in on that message were going to meet face to face and talk on their planet.
outgoing message(paradox and MF):Phantom Zero: i agree with Paradox we need to keep the peace in the galaxy shall we form an alliance?

Phantom Zero, read up. Paradox now represents the Faridians. I am now nobody. Paradox, you now control two races. This can be considered fair because of the Nonja-Malloid becoming one thingy.
Senate: Then you paradox, will be our sovereign. Who's office requires first, to provide the Faridian's basic rights (Life, Liberty, and Property), second to provide equality of opportunity, and third, to further the long term success of the Faridians. Lead us well.
These statistics now belong to you Paradox. General----- Credits: 500 PMT grade Ignosum: 4/10 ton (not very useful) PAG grade Ignosum: 6/10 ton (weapons grade) Locke----- Development: 1/5 Mining operation Mining Operations:1 (produces 1/10 ton PMT grade Ignosum every turn) Refineries:2 (turns 2/10 ton PMT grade Ignosum into PAG grade Ignosum) Faraday----- Development: Prospecting 2/5 (looking for resources on Faraday) Ships----- 1 trade ship at home of droids 5 military ships at Locke 1 military ship at Faraday 2 colonizers on the arm clockwise of ours between Cryto and C-2
Good Luck -Micro Farad

Project 42: 30/42
Some preliminary tests are done. They don't go well. Let's just say, the shipboard computer was trying to make tea at the same time as running the drive, and the testing ship ended up turning into a large glob of tea... But the plans were preserved. And it was delicious.
Sirian Dollars: 1000ƒ
So, Micro, giving up solely to get back at me? VIROS and I are merely allied and can set research topics for each other's systems. Basically, we do joint research. But hey, whatever floats your boat.

Outgoing Cloian Message: We are the Cloian race. We seek alliance with a more advanced civilization, such as yourselves. We can tell you are more advanced because our ship's telescopes can now see your system. We hope that you will accept our gift, and allow us to be allies. We look forward to your answer. (So Paradox is in command, huh?) ------------------ 20 units (not including the "gift" for the Faridians) of Galloidium collected. ------------------ One ship built: Military.

Requin: Sir, we sighted a huge fleet of ships in our telescopes on our way to the Faridian star system! Xarthes: Requin, we'll see if we can make contact with them. Focus on the alliance! Outgoing Cloian message: Unidentified star fleet, this is Tul. Xarthes, leader of Cryto. Who are you? (This message is going towards the rebel fleet.) ------------ 30 units of Galloidium produced. ----------------------------- Higher grade Galloidium purifiers: Increases Galloidium production by 5 units: 1/7 complete. ------------------------------------ On second thought, make that (new) military ship a colonizer.

Project 42: 36/42
Sirian Dollars: ƒ1000
NEW COLONIZER, GOING UP!
When the Aortist Rods are complete, they shall be added to the Sirius Cybernetics shopping list for any and all interested civilizations at a mere ƒ150, in Sirian Dollars. They are a very powerful and small source of portable energy, usable in pretty much every situation. They, though a complex process, suck energy from the past. The very distant past. That's besides the point. They can also be used as a method for rocket propulsion.
