Questions and a suggestion

April 9, 2003 3:06 PM from

Questions first: If I install SDC and download updates with it does it just download into a folder or does it try to update the game? I have GC installed on another pc so I need to download on this one then transfer it accross.

When you buy influence from another civ how long do you keep it? I was pleased with owning 51% of the votes untill it dropped back down to my normal level again before the next meeting.

Is the any warning about when the united planed will meet? If not there should be, like the election count down.

My suggestion is that you should be able to propose bills in the united planets rather than just wait for an issue to be raised.

OK, here's my go at it:

If you install SDC first and download updates, it will update the game. You could alternatively, download the patch as opposed to using SDC to update the game.

When you buy influence from another civ, it only lasts until the UP meets. Once you use it in that UP session, the bought influence is used up.

In the latest update, the game will warn you one month before the UP meets. Hope this helps.

The problem is the patches aren't updated as often as SDC, only 1.01 is there so far. Oh well.

It'd be nice if you knew what the UP would be voting on beforehand then, so you knew if it was worth buying votes or not.
