if it seems too similar we could make a category extensions area for this game and put lots of other ambiguous categories like All Rainbow Worlds, Max Melnorme, Melnorme's Favorite Customer, Speedrun The Words and stuff like that.
It would require a reroute because you would not have enough fuel to maintain all of the extra items, and the Umgah caster would be interesting to get because you would have to go to Spathi twice. Also, you would need tons of crew which would require even more RU so I think it would be completely different.
You have to get every item in The Ur-Quan Masters at some point in the run (some items are traded in for others, so you do not need all of the items in the end) which includes:
Aqua Helix (Part Of Any%) Burvixese 'Caster (Part Of Any%) Clear Spindle (Part Of Any%) Egg Case Fragment (Part Of Any%) Egg Case Fragment (Not In Any%) Egg Case Fragment (Not In Any%) Glowing Rod (Not In Any%) Moon Base (Part Of Any%) Quasispace Portal Spawner (Part Of Any%) Rosy Sphere (Part Of Any%) Shofixti Maidens (Not In Any%) Slylandro Probe Destruct Sequence (Not In Any%) Sun Device (Part Of Any%) Syreen Shuttle (Part Of Any%) Taalo Shield (Part Of Any%) Talking Pet (Part Of Any%) Ultron (All Types) (Part Of Any%) Umgah 'Caster (Not In Any%) Ur-Quan Warp Pod (Part Of Any%) Utwig Bomb (Part Of Any%) VUX Beast (Not In Any%) Wimbli's Trident (Not In Any%)
Timer rules are the same, the run ends when you drive your ship into the Sa-Matra.
I read the mod rules and it seems like you are required to do a run before becoming mod, but I am not sure if they mean a run of any game or of the game they are going to become mod on. I made this forum because the previous mod stepped down and has not been active for about a year. There can be multiple mods as well so you could become a mod as well happycamper_
Like the username btw if it is a reference to the Orz
I read the rules, but do not know anything about verifying runs. I don't believe I would be fit for mod, and I am asking if anybody else wants to step up as mod.
There are no mods for Star Control II. I have been speedrunning this game for about a month on Twitch, and got a run of about 56m that I am proud of. I submitted it multiple weeks ago, and got no reply. I looked at the mod list and it looked empty. Can anybody moderate Star Control II? https://www.speedrun.com/star_control_ii_the_ur-quan_masters
