Default efficiency

I read the manual and most posts here.... how can i improve efficiency? military is ok, SIN is good, but mining and research, the things that matter, are sub par.... so, how to improve that? increase budget, increase free personel? I'm already selective in hiring (experience, study credentials)

Oh, and some info... the syndicate will send a fleet to any planet thet you send a fleet to, unless you send the cloaked fox. I jut scouted and reconnoited (or something) the eyeball, to no effect, but wit SIN and a FOX, no syndicate interference

also, to protect against the invasion and assassination, you shouldnt have a fleet at harmony but launch it as an atack fleet there

find reseacrchers with varying skills and change what they research. If they have 15 personel each research goes fast, but you cant have that many without compromising your mines etc. sidenote, keep an eye to techs that improve mining. theyre important

10 researchers per team perform pretty good, mostly if you got many teams.

I figured out how to make dragon ships only cost 256 fils/game currency. If anyone is interested let me know. I've been playing around with the game files with a hex editor.

Default Installing problem!

Hi. Can anyone tell me what key I have to press to install the game? I know 'I' is Input, 'O' is Output (this seems to freeze the install with a beige screen) 'S' is Sound and 'Q' is quit, but I can't seem to find the key (or key combination) to Install?

I'm using DosBox 0.74, with c: drive mounted as my usual dosbox folder, the Maelstrom download from this site, and a: drive mounted as the unzipped folder containing the install files.

It seems for me that game on site is pre-installed. You don't need to install it. So your installer is not from Abandonia.

Anyway, I found installer and tried it. Yes, it seems something wrong with output. Anyway, you can move in the menu with Tab, and select with Enter. Everything (including installing, but excluding "output path") works well for me.

P.S. Installer is broken, BTW, but it seems it installs everything all right anyway. But I didn't check it too close.

Right you are. I had both unzipped and kept mounting the wrong folder!

I've obviously got a bit rusty on my 8+3 file system syntax.

Good to know it was the installer and not me with the issues!

Now to try this thing out!

This is one of the best games ever made but also one of the most unrated. So we missed sequels or at least games that follow the idea.
