No , r is a character , it goes inside the quotes . Also python automatically adds a newline with a print statement , so if you want to rewrite a line you have to suppress that with end , flushTrue . Here ' s an example import time print ' one ', end '', flushTrue time . sleep 1 print ' rtwo ', end '', flushTrue time . sleep 1 print ' rthree ', end '', flushTrue <| sep |> Exactly , this is what I think will make normally soloplayers join groups . Having a big ship would require people to crew it , so , even if you got the money you would still need more playersI don ' t think NPC crew members can compare to human ones . I normally play MMOs solo , rarely joining groupsguildsclans , and even then it ' s just to tackle endgame contentmost of my friends aren ' t interested in SciFi MMOs , or MMOs in general . However I can ' t wait to try my hand at SC with more people , even if it ' s just to add my fighter to a flight inside an Idrisor Bengal . Some people always want to be Adama , and forget Apollo and Starbuck can be just as important . And frankly I don ' t know if I got the patience or free time to manage a big ship . Will I grind and earn money to eventually buy a bigger one ? Yes . Probably one of the explorers andor bounty hunter ones , maybe , if my friends begin playing , a Constellation . Until then it would just be me and my fighter blowing up Vanduul in the black . , Can ' t wait for Operation Pitchfork .
