Resolved Issues / Re: New Chatbox - Post feedback and suggestions for it here!
2013 Oct 15, 20:29:25
Could disabling text features on the chat effect other parts of the forum like replies? Because none of text features are showing up when I reply for a topic or start one. And this happened at the same time when I first saw that chat box. Now its taking the features to load up very slowly or none at all.

The Shining Star and Dreadnought were able to port into the docking bays this time with no trouble. The other two ships waited outside. Buckeye left the bridge and heads down into the port doors. The doors opens up and Buckeye leaves the ship and onto the platform. He meets up with Captain Autumn Wing and his recruitment officers. The Captain and his officers stands at attention and salutes Buckeye when he approached. "At ease." He faces Autumn Wing. "I see you have dressed yourself nicely, Autumn. Getting ready for the new recruits?" "Aye, Buck. It's about time we get some new recruits, otherwise me old fighters won't have any pony to impress but themselves. Plus I have been itchin to get some after that last battle." Buckeye grins. "That's good to hear. You know what to do, set up a recruitment stand and recruit as much as you can. Oh and save a little for reserves, I saw a flight school when I came in. Might be good when we go recruiting again in a month, eh?" Autumn grins as well. "Aye sir. I couldn't agree more. You heard him! Get those greenhorns recruited." Autumn and the rest of the officers left for recruitment.
Buckeye exits out of docking bay and enters into the city. He looks around the place until he comes up to the Academy he saw. He looks at it. "That's a fine school for flying. A lot of students learning to fly in there. I wonder if I can get a tour of this place while my guys are out recruiting?"

Whenever I open a new topic or try to reply to a thread I a led to the page where I am suppose to go but the options to change your font color, size, smileys are all gone. The only thing I get is the Subject and Message Icon that always appear above it. I can still text, preview, and submit, but I can't change the text at all. Why is this happening?

"Thank you for your hospitality. Now then, with the transfer complete, we will be on our way." He trots into the Shining Star with his crew waiting inside. The ship's port door closes. Buckeye goes to the bridge and prepares his crew for takeoff. "Now that we have gotten ourselves stuck, we are going get out of using full speed of our engines. So hold on tight." The two other frigate ships already left the docking bays and joined Dreadnought. Shining Star goes into full speed and was able to get out of the docking bay with minimum damage to the hull on the back end. The ship joins in with the rest of the fleet.
Buckeye contacts his fleet. "We have been given the all go for recruitment. Head out to the Starlight Castle, we will find the recruits there. And Dreadnought, you will have to wait 'til we get back to Space Station Ether for resupply." He closes the coms and the Shining Star heads towards the Starlight Castle with the fleet following in. "Open com channels with Starlight Castle" The communications officer opens the coms. "This is Sheriff of the Shining Star, do we have permission to port?"

"I know of Queen Tiamat, the Mother of Dragons. She is a friend of mine from long ago. I haven't met her in ages since the event involving Discord and the Mane 6. If you think she can protect it better, then show me where to go. Once it is protected, I will return here and help out as much as I can." Bane takes the cube and puts it in his bag. He prepares for another travel.

Buckeye takes out the ID list of the prisoners and gives it to Graph Talon and shakes his claw. "They are all yours. Pirates who thought they could get away by attacking one of the civilian ships flying from Canis 2 to Ursa 2." He signals his guards to leave the prisoners to the security force and head back to the ship. "Thank you for your services but before I go, there is something of which I need to deliver. Its for the Queen of the Night and Sun. A request from the democratic governments of the Free Systems." Buckeye looks at the Dreadnought still trying to find a port. "You got a port for the Dreadnought? Its looking to resupply, and you don't mind if the crew of Dreadnought goes recruiting for fighter pilots? Last skirmish we had took out a few pilots, Dreadnought wants to replace those pilots and have a little extra for reserve." He looks back at Graph Talon. "And if you think that we should have done it in the Free Systems, then you would be wrong. We don't have that many left.

Bane walks further into the tower. He gets up to where Cadence is at. He unsheathes his blade and gently puts the tip of the blade on the floor, making it stand. Bane bows down, putting his head onto the flat part of the blade. He stands back up and sheathes his blade. "Greetings your Majesty. I am Bane Emural, the last of the Ancients. I thank you for agreeing to help protect my kind's history and technology from Discord." Bane takes out the small vault device. "This cube contains atleast 100 artifacts, the ones that I have protected for so long." Bane pushes the top of the cube and a large screen shows a selection of the all 100 artifacts to prove it is in there. He pushes it again to deactivate the selection. "Please take good care of this, and try not to pry. For this world is not yet ready for what lies within."

um... Omega. The specifications for the fortress ship looks a bit smaller than the Pillar of Autumn. Here is the size specifications.
And Bravo, you are right about the Pillar of Autumn not being that big. I realized I was using a Halcyon Class Cruiser ship as the size comparison instead of a Marathon Class Cruiser, which is bigger than the Halcyon. The Pillar of Autumn was just a light cruiser, I'm using a heavy cruiser so its much bigger and packs a bigger punch.

Those are one of the ports, there are atleast two types of them. One is the one you had, the other is the docks at the Defense Stations such as Cairo.

I thought folks made big skeletal frames for such ships to dock in for repairs...
...and speaking of docks, external docking ports for bigger ships, like what the UNSC Savannah did when docking with Anchor 9.Spoiler: show

ok then, then you wont mind me if I fit a large ship the size of an UNSC Marathon Class Cruiser into space dock? And if you're confused on the size of a ship like that, use the ship, the Pillar of Autumn, from the game, Halo: Combat Evolved, as the size example of the ship I'm using.

Buckeye looks at the tactical map as it zooms in on the station's docking bay. "Seems like a tight fit, hope we can make it through." The large ship advances into the docking bay. The front and middle parts of the ship was able to fit in perfect but the large back end begins scratching against both the bottom and top side of the bay, creating a large screeching noise until the ship has come to a stop. Most of the crew inside the ship was holding onto their seats and stations, Buckeye was holding onto the hologram table. "Next time, lets try to find a port that would let us ascend or descend the next time we take a visit." The other two ships, Blazing Fire and Burning Star, was able to fit into other docking bays quite fine. The Dreadnought however, is left waiting outside. The ship too large to fit through the docks.
"Dreadnought will not be able to fit through the docks for refueling, is there another way into the station? Oh and sorry for the ruckus, this ship can be a bit larger than most of these other ships you have here." Buckeye turns off the coms. "Prepare the prisoners for transport. Have them wait by the door." Buckeye exits the bridge and proceeds down into one of the ship's exits. He sees both of his guards and the prisoners. He goes to the front of the group and opens up the doors. Buckeye and the group advances outside and onto the docking platform. There they wait for the pony assigned to take the prisoners of his hooves.

Are there any port decks besides the docking bays? Because the only way to enter or exit the ships I have is through via port or shuttle. Plus the ships don't have any reverse thrusters, so even if I do put the ship into the docking bay, it would be stuck there until a ship on the front end pushes it out, without causing damage to the warship.

"Your Majesty, I am Bane Emural, one of the last of the Ancients. I have come here carrying the technology of my kind in hopes it can be protected here. If Discord succeeds in taking such technology from me, he will undoubtedly win this war. He knows of its existence and already tried to take it once. I ask this, can you protect my kind's technology for me? In doing so, I will help out with your cause." Bane looks at the glowing guards, awaiting an answer.

Once the fleet exited out of slipstream, they heard the transmission and replied. "This is the Sheriff, Captain of the Shining Star, Marathon Class Cruiser. We are here transporting prisoners from Canis 2. Do we have permission to port?" The tactical map of the sector appears in the bridge automatically, showing Homeworld's space stations and other ships orbiting around the planet. The four large warships slowly proceeds further into Homeworld territory.

In the Canis 2 System of the galaxy, a small fleet of ships orbits around one of the colonial planets along with the orbital space station. The ship, The Shining Star, a Marathon Class Cruiser, is in port with the orbital station, Ether. The other ships, Burning Star, Blazing Fire, and Dreadnought all await the departure of The Shining Star for what might be their next mission.
Inside the Orbital Space Station, Ether, Sheriff Buckeye Starwing is in the space station's brig, along with a couple guards, a few prisoners, and the commander of the station. "So these are the ones that attacked one of the colony ships? They don't look much like pirates." Buckeye looks at the commander. "This job you're giving me and my deputies isn't much than what we have expected." The commander looks at Buckeye. "Well, I'm sorry but you were the only one available at this time, most of the ships we have are either under maintenance or conducting missions. Besides, this might give your men a bit of a breather after the nine consecutive attacks you had to deal with."
"I guess you're right, it will give me and the rest a break. Besides its not that hard to carry a bunch of prisoners to the Homeworld. You can count on me sir." Buckeye beckons the guards to start moving the prisoners onto his ship. Once boarded, the prisoners were moved into the brig. Buckeye moves towards the bridge and checks on the status of the ship. "Is the ship ready to go?" One of the crewmembers replied while looking at his console. "Aye, sir. Weapons all ready to go. Ammo re-stocked. Engines ready to go. Navigations ready. We are ready to depart sir." Buckeye grins as a tactical map of the sector shows up in front of him. "Get ready to depart. Contact the other ships and make sure they are ready to enter into Slipstream Space."
The Shining Star detaches itself from Space Station Ether and joins the other ships for entry into slipstream space. "Set a course for the Homeworld." Several disturbances in space appears infront of each ship. Each of those disturbances turns into a large hole, big enough for the ships to go through. "Enter now!" Buckeye gives the command and each ship goes through the slipstream space.
