Rotp-Fusion VS Open-Realms-of-Stars

Which version did you get? Original author is done with the game, the modders are maintaining it, latest release here I think: https://github.com/BrokenRegistry/Rotp-Fusion/releases

These are both great. The original RotP is no longer being actively developed, but there are a couple of forks on GitHub that stay in sync with one another and have continued building on the base.

c92b9a9b refers to the commit that had the pluginManagement change. (The commit has several other files being changed so we won't be able to revert it cleanly). c83c22fa refers to the previous commit when pom.xml was changed.

For everything that I didn't mention: I agree that many of these would be "nice to have". But I personally don't want these enough to do the necessary work. Since you already gave an estimate of how difficult they would be to implement, how about you do it yourself? Fork the Fusion-version from BrokenRegistrie's repo: https://github.com/BrokenRegistry/Rotp-Fusion, do those fixes/enhancements and have us grab them back from your Repo. (I know the git-magic to do that). I definitely wouldn't mind another contributor making the game even better.

It's free, it's easiest to probably just try it. https://github.com/BrokenRegistry/Rotp-Fusion/releases

OROS is available in Github or Itchio. I have also youtube channel if you are interested to see videos first: Youtube link

Open Realm of Stars is available in Github or Itchio:

I have been working with my own Open Source 4X space game called Open Realm of Stars. Link to Github and Itchio. There is exploration part, where you can discover new planets, gas giants, space anomalies and space monsters. There is also possibility to tame those monsters and take them your control. Exploring depends really on scanners you have attached your ship designs. Space combat is also quite interesting since it really depends on your ship designs.

ORoS is available in Itchio and Github. There is also Youtube channel. Even game is still in beta phase it is fully playable but new features/improvements are added newer versions.

I have been working with Open Realm of Stars( Itchio and Github ) . Main inspirations have been classic old Stars! and Galactic Civilization II. Trying out does not cost anything since game if free and open source. You can even suggest new feature(s)/improvements and I try to do those when possible. If you are still skeptical, you can watch videos about from my YT channel

There is also wiki available for Oros. It contains all available technologies, rare technologies, space races, leaders, governments, how combat works and more.

My Open Realm of Stars has one. It is free and open source game so trying it out does not cost anything. Github link and Itchio link.
