[quote who="RammaStardock" reply="2" id="3892598"] Hello, We are looking into ways to give players more customization options for galaxy creations. But these plans are still being discussed, in the mean time gypsy's answer would best help [/quote] You're right. What I think we need to do: I smove the Civ proximity to the left and put a Stars section

[quote quoting="post"] Three techs that Vigilant races get, Interstellar Navigation, Navigation Network, and Navigational Expertise, do nothing. The first says it allows building the Navigation Center achievement, the second says it allows building the Galactic Navigation Network, and the third says it allows building the Galactic Navigators Guild.

[quote who="PaulLach" reply="11" id="3891737"] Quoting Frogboy, reply 10 There are also various anomalies that will give you a survey module. While that used to be true, I have not found an anomaly under 1.55.376713.1 that gives a survey ship or a constructor. They may be still out

I just don't think Point Defense is worthy of having its own called out stat on every UI. When I designed some of this stuff I was a lot younger and dumber. Well, younger. And when it comes to warfare, whether we are talking Bronze age or Space Age, there are really only 3 thi

[quote who="scifi1950" reply="4" id="3891320"] Well, you sure made picking traits a tougher decision by upping the base cost and then upping the cost or remaining picks dramatically with each new pick. I think it would help if you added culture points to the info at the top of the main screen and let us see how they're accumulating as with Control and Wealth.
