We also discover that in this version of the game you need to apply some kind of strategy to what you're doing :)

This is release candidate 1 of 0.4.2 released on 5th Feb 2013

■ About this video:
It's a bit of a raw video, I literally just installed this build and started recording - so it shows a true representation of my time with the game. It's not a fancy video as I was still learning how to record but the game itself is an absolute gem. Check out Part 2 for a smoother, more detailed video. I, Shockpuppetz, am the creator of the original commentary - the game is a creation of the FreeOrion team.

The mineral bar is missing.

[ShockPuppetz]

Is that the current version? I've moved on to 0.4.2 6030 (I made a new video on it, with a download link) and its all good on my computer.

If you run into any bugs, the guys at the freeorion forums would love to know :)

[IrregularMan13]

Good! ( downloading )

[ShockPuppetz]

Great! In about an hour my latest FreeOrion video goes live, check it out - its kinda short and it covers most things. Make sure you download 0.4.2 svn 6030, its much improved!

[ZyklonV]

Looks like Crusader Kings 2 meet EVE. Impressive for an opensource project!

[ShockPuppetz]

Very impressive, I've got a lot of respect for people who get involved in large open source projects like this.

[bamson Chargeit]

You've also got a colony, if you scroll down the fleet list. 

[Peter Silver]

What a good project!

[ShockPuppetz]

Strange. Head on over to the freeorion forums, see what the developers say. I never had that problem.

...when I click the turn button to end the turn, nothing happens at all...
