Development
In later versions of the game players had "one time only" options such as The Corbomite Maneuver, where a player in a damaged ship could feign a self-destruct sequence to scare away the enemy. Actual self-destructs, which might take out an enemy that strayed too close, also were available. These kept the option open for a damaged ship to successfully flee, since conquering enemies tended to keep their distance.

Famous quotes containing the word development:
“The work of adult life is not easy. As in childhood, each step presents not only new tasks of development but requires a letting go of the techniques that worked before. With each passage some magic must be given up, some cherished illusion of safety and comfortably familiar sense of self must be cast off, to allow for the greater expansion of our distinctiveness.”
—Gail Sheehy (20th century)
“Theories of child development and guidelines for parents are not cast in stone. They are constantly changing and adapting to new information and new pressures. There is no “right” way, just as there are no magic incantations that will always painlessly resolve a child’s problems.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
