What are the red numbers?

I'm guessing, but the red numbers seem to only be in categories that have reached or exceeded the maximum ship cap.

Is it per battle?  But you can still own more than the cap.

while you can only build so much you arent limited by those numbers if you capture ships.

Well TotalBiscuit definitely likes it:

OK broke down and bought this.  Along with the anticipated purchase of Command Ops 2 in the near future I had better keep a low gaming profile from the wife for the next couple of months.

On the plus side its been so long since I played Homeworld it will be like playing a brand new game.  Also Totalbiscuit video got me to nostalgic to pass it up.

I really wish there where set piece battles in the multi player version of the game.  no resource collection or anything.  one fleet vs another.

Anyone (aside from Star) playing this?  If so, thoughts?  Is there any particular reason I shouldn't get it?  'Cuz right now I'm basically just waiting for payday...

i didn't get it to work    :(
(of course i use the line command on the correct .exe of the Steam installation like: H:\Games\Steam\SteamApps\common\Homeworld\HomeworldRM\Bin\Release\HomeworldRM.exe /pilotview  and start HW1 remastered circumventing the general Homeworld editions launcher)

maybe cause the q -key is occupied with a menu function

what I linked is for the original HW not the remastered version.
