Reply to Don't like the single flagship in GalCiv IV Feedback GalCiv4 Forums

[quote who="Bamdorf" reply="17" id="3931170"] I think the survey ship availability is just about right. Managing them, however, can get a bit tedious. Need more ways to quickly identify where your survey ships are. [/quote] Here's the workaround that I use. Add an "*" (or any non-alpha character of your choice) to the front of the name of your flagship. Then sort your ships by name & all the flagships will appear at the top of th

Reply to Insider 2.5.580.372 Cybernetic Civ ability in GalCiv IV Feedback GalCiv4 Forums

I copied my original Custom Civ and made them a Silicon race. Techs were there. Switched them back to Synthetic and no go. Tried all the other races and techs appeared. So the answer seems to be that you cannot use the Cybernetic ability on a Synthetic race. I guess this makes sense when I think about it. Synthetic races are robotic, so Cybernetics would be redundant.

Finally got it to work. Downloaded a silicon race from the Workshop and added the Cybernetic ability. The techs were there.

I tried switching abilities so that Cybernetics was in the 1st ability slot - no change. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling game - no change. I tried turning off Mods - no change.

Reply to Ships hiding in anomalies in Galactic Civilizations IV GalCiv4 Forums

Be careful how you use that wormhole generator. I used it to breakup a siege of a planet I couldn't get to before the enemy fleet conquered it so I could save a colony transport stationed there. The attacking fleet was sent to god knows where just fine, but the game insisted that the planet was still under siege and still wouldn't let my transport ship leave. I couldn't free it when my relief fleet arrived either since there was no enemy fleet to defeat. That planet wa

The new detailed Trade Routes screen is very nice. Could you please add the ability to cancel a trade route. As we expand our ability to travel farther and find new worlds, it would be nice to open more lucrative trade routes, but we're stuck with the older ones.

Galactic Bazaar - QOL improvement in GalCiv IV Feedback GalCiv4 Forums

I've asked for this before. Could you please give us the ability to use the mouse wheel or */- arrows to change # of items to buy/sell in the Galactic Bazaar like we can do when we're making a trade with an AI Civ. Early game isn't too bad if you're only buying or selling under 10, but having to do 50 or more mouse clicks later in the game when making large tranactions it is a real pain. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/18/60/1860429/1008191e-5996-4e51-af9b-94005d2

Just as a footnote - I don't know if this is still true, but at least 1 of the ships from a Culture pick shows up on the Commander tab went you get it. I always get the "Enforcer". One time I didn't like the commander and tried to replace them using the method DCvsMarvel outlined. This was many version ago and I haven't tried to do this since. It took away the ship as well as the Commander. Of course there was no way to get the ship back. As a rule I always save
