Thx a lot for your fine work over the years. Very welcome to see STNC getting better and better every patch.

BTW, during a new game, I thought about 'wouldn't it be a good idea to have a mod like the forming of the United Federation of Planets as a seperate spin-off?'.

The idea is, to get a mod that allows players to ask their members to reform an alliance into a federation with the player as new overlord. The federation may have different roles for the new subjects according to the form of the former alliance. The new federation should then have a request for a new name and offering a choice for new starship models.
