Advanced features - [for later versions] ***************** revision 1 ideal advanced features, which could be implemented later when basic game will be working fine. these are not priority at all , sorted by "possible" priority : - text2speech - more configurable (voice selection) = better - internet gateway - ever wanted to download latest news via your ship terminal in stardock (i mean GAME STORY NEWS , not real one , but of course you can surf thru SOL internet gateway :-)) ), maybe some kind of toplist can be created by this. - multiplayer - basic mode : cooperative (2 players in 1 fleet) or separate, but good mode would be full online mode , few features should be turned off (time accel. and stuff which can sync out players between them.) - specific hardware - game should be able to connect very specific hardware and use it as input/ouput , driver should be written as some kind of plugin . example : few wired LEDs can serve as damage indicator - very ADVANCED feature : game embedding - for example some easy RPG or sport game.
