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 development of civilization and industry in general has always shown itself so active in the destruction of forests that everything that has been done for their conservation and production is completely insignificant in comparison.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“Ultimately, it is the receiving of the child and hearing what he or she has to say that develops the child’s mind and personhood.... Parents who enter into a dialogue with their children, who draw out and respect their opinions, are more likely to have children whose intellectual and ethical development proceeds rapidly and surely.”
—Mary Field Belenky (20th century)
“Every new development for the last three centuries has brought men closer to a state of affairs in which absolutely nothing would be recognized in the whole world as possessing a claim to obedience except the authority of the State. The majority of people in Europe obey nothing else.”
—Simone Weil (1909–1943)
