@Sean:
I just took out the signing (it wasn’t really needed, kinda just slipped in there) so now it should run without prompting for access to your computer.

@mh When you play the game you will see the starbase slowly spinning.

That’s not actually a JavaFX issue.
The reason you get that dialog is because Tony signed the jar file with a self signed certificate. You can click ‘Deny’ in the alert and the game will still play.
If he had not signed the jar at all, you would get no alert at all.

I hate to say it, because I know it’s javafx’s fault and not yours, but I couldn’t bring myself to accept that security dialog granted unrestricted access to my system to play your game. I’ve been working with the technology since march and I still don’t feel right granting unsandboxed access to applets.
