Along with FrankZP's DW3 LP, this and your Creeper World 3 LPs got me to finally make an account here. So, first: thanks.

Second: bribery. We're the goddamn Darloks.

And so this effort crumbles to its end. I can't reliably get the game to proceed, and I'm not about to replay several years of this - I have no saves going back further - just to see if there might be the off chance to fix it. Coupled with the slowdown I was seeing, I think that MOO simply can't handle the awesomeness of my version of the Borg. They have achieved a far greater feat than defeating the Guardian, though I was much looking forward to that battle. They have corrupted space-time itself. I do regret being unable to haul this final game across the finish line, but I did give it my best try.

Something of a shame that this epic LP thread comes to a halt with a whimper rather than a bang. If you'd be willing to share your last save, we could maybe see if we could get it working in 1oom, the MOO reimplementation that follows the original game's logic as closely as possible (to a fault, in some places)... but I can understand if you'd rather just let the game rest in peace instead. I suspect you're hitting hard memory limits that the original DOS code can't overcome.

In any event, thanks for the efforts over these many months!
