Reply to Graphical interface in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

ideally this is what most people would be comfortable with I think ( several years of dealing with user interfaces ) If folk are in agreement I can get more specific on other things that should naturally occur with these uses. left click: to select double left click: for default action for currently selected object. I.E. if a ship is currently selected and you double click a space other than the ship, the ship should move there. if you double click the ship you should get an in

fog of news. I like it. and I think it's something NEW. this could really add depth. 1. the closer an enemy system is to one of yours, the faster you learn about things happening. 2. more spies decreases time to news 3. more enemy security increases time to news 4. democracies decrease your security value 5. communisms increase security value 6. certain technologies affect news speed and security levels.

well if we go for meanings of names, jeffery is dutch meaning Heavenly Peace. strange name for a planet, but I can deal with it.

Reply to Are you people keeping up with the AOL/Trillian issue? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

depending on how this trillian works, they could be brought up on charges of 'theft of services' if the message traffic travels through the aol network without permission then this could be valid. on another note, did not AOL do the same thing to ICQ a couple years ago?

the ships are not being ejected from the system. they are staying in system. the first ship in this state will cause the star to look like it is selected. not sure about a second ship doing this at the same time. I will try to make that happen and tell you what I find.

Please add save option to this last build in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

ships with remaining moves often do not move until after you press the turn button Some planets ( uncolonized ) will not allow you to view, move to them, or colonize. colony ships arriving at their destination will offer the colonize choice, but it just blinks then goes away. you have to search for the planet that is up for colonization, move the ship out of the system, then back in before you can colonize. research complete screen still overrides the colonize screen.

copy protection? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

have you all thought about copy protection? I have been messing with sim city 3000, and noticed that they are chasing piracy in a different way. the new unlimited version website requires that you register your copy on the site before it will allow you to download any type of addons or new building, scenarios and such. seems to me that this might be an excellent method of controlling piracy to some extent. all software is eventually cracked, no way to avoid that. but the registration requirement

Reply to GalCiv publishers in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

have you all considered self publishing and then hitting up compusa, electronic boutique, and other chains to sell it? I might have an 'IN' with EB. relative works in management for them. self publishing won't be all that hard. farm out CD replication, box production, and do an electronic manual ( that being the most expensive part ). you should check out the thompson registry online. it's the worlds largest industry database. I use them to find little know manufacturers, find I get good prices
