Re: BNT new version

I agree with your choice not to use Flash, it was terrible and was not intuitive in how it could interact with the browser.

Re: Attacking Planets

Ah never mind, I worked it all out and then got screwed because the base was destroyed when I took the planet (yay I won), and then the game took the 500 trillion I needed to pay off my bounty and IGB debt, as well as upgrading my ship to conquer further planets, so I have -700 billion debt to IGB, ...

Thanks for the suggestions and the backstory particularly to things that have been tried and the challenges posed. I hadnt really considered some of the problems posed by past implementations. The 3D map thing is largely a presentational issue, however with Web GL being much better supported in 2017...

BNT new version

Dear players of BNT, I am a long time player of Blacknova, playing originally on the Rednova game which has, apparently, long since disappeared from the tubes. I also happen to be a 'hobbyist web developer' with similarly significant experience in web design and particularly web programming. I inten...
