Hello everybody, I have a small idea about the encyclopedia. Why not to list the various types of weapons which vessels use with their photos and descriptions?

The ingame database is currently designed to hold all game data, so this could be a nice addition.

It's a bit too early to add it at the moment because we (I) haven't decided on all of the weapons yet, but the game works by you manually entering a name for the weapons a ship has, so i'm not entirely sure how this would be programmed. But it's a nice idea, at least.

Not only the arms (http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Category:Weapons)
, but definition an description of the shields, warp core etc.....,
lifeforms encountered (http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Spaceborne_species)
planets,(http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Planets). A kind of wiki

Here's an Idea I got from playing X-com. An encyclopedia which unlocks entries of other empires as the game goes on. For example, when your operatives conduct espionage, or your fleets take on a ship enough times, certain things will be unlocked.

Hmm...nice idea. In some respects we do plan to sort-of include something like this. But I don't know how detailed Mike plans to make it. We'll have to wait and see. But definitely a nice idea.
