Nemesis Zero's earlier answer: There're multiple things to say on this, because some issues are easily mixed up here:
* As Flayra affirmed in multiple interviews, he is planning on creating a retail sequel to NS that'll be developed by his new company, Unknown Worlds Entertainment. This sequel will naturally use a more recent engine, although it is not clear which. Note that NS2 is only one of the concepts offered to possible investors, so it's not guaranteed to be UWE's first product. * Multiple members of the mod's devteam have expressed interest in updating NS(1) to a newer engine, possibly Source. Interest. * So far, there has been no publicised decision on the issue of whether and if so, which port is to be made. Nor can such a decision be expected until work on the current version of NS has been finished, or until the team had an opportunity to get a good idea of how much work would be involved in such a port.
So, in case you feel as though you've just read a hugely bloated 'No comment.', you are correct <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->This is in the FAQ.
I think they will port it, but no one really knows.

It is in the FAQ. My brain hurts from reading so many of these damn NS: Source posts.
Invader scoot, you're getting your post count cut by a TBD amount for making that IBTL post.
