Reply to 2.3 Insider - Question Independence ideology mechanic in GalCiv IV Feedback GalCiv4 Forums

Yes, that's what it probably means, but why is it the only culture ideology that has a negative impact? Culture points are to valuable to waste on negative outcomes and being the first one on the Individualism tree blocks all the others unless you accept the negative. Just doesn't feel right.

2.3 Insider - Question Independence ideology mechanic in GalCiv IV Feedback GalCiv4 Forums

Why does Independence ideology (under Individualism) give a negative result. I know it says that Supply Attrition will increase by 15% and it does exactly that, but aren't Cultural Progressions supposed to be a positive thing? I don't remember seeing any other ideology that has a negative outcome. Is this really what you meant to do or is it just backwards? <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/18/60/1860429/2a2455e7-69ef-4752-84ac-203192c9ccad.png" alt="" width="

2.2 Insider - Cultural Progression - Totalitarianism - Censorship not working as stated in GalCiv IV Bug Reports GalCiv4 Forums

This is probably a known issue, but Censorship says, "Factions have no negative side effects", which clearly implies all factions since it does not say any will be excluded. Clearly I'm still getting negative penalties on Endless Emporium and Freemind Center. Those are negative side effects even though they're stated as a positive number. The Warforged crime negative effect was also stated as a positive number and it went to zero. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/fo

Reply to 2.2 Insider - Ship designs from previous game not showing up. in Galactic Civilizations IV GalCiv4 Forums

mperlmuter - You already have a button to "Obsolete a ship design that is no longer needed", why manage the list for us. At the very least just add a button to "Show all ships" for those of us who want to see everything and not have to jump thru hoops. Also, I do not see an "edit an existing ship template" button. If I pick "Show ship designs", it only shows me the ships in the current in game shipyard list and only some of my previous custom ships have started

2.2 Insider - Ship designs from previous game not showing up. in Galactic Civilizations IV GalCiv4 Forums

Any idea why some of my custom ship designs from previous games are not showing up in new game. The Flag ship designs do show up, but not the combat ships. All these ships show up in the Ship Designer before I start a game, but once I start a new game and open the Ship Designer in a Shipyard they're not there. The ships I subscribed to in the workshop also do not show up in game, or in Ship designer in or out of game.

Reply to Long pause between turns when finishing tech in GalCiv IV Support GalCiv4 Forums

Amazing, that's basically the same setup I have. The only difference is I have an I7-7700 running @4.2 GHz. But we both have 4 cores and that's important because they game is multithreaded and will needs at least 4 cores to run smoothly. The GTX1080 may be old but it's still a very good video card. Like I said I do see a small lag (10-30 sec) when picking new research, but nothing like you are. Just as an experiment try playing huge map with only 8 AI civs and se

Reply to Supply Attrition Under 2.2.503248 in Galactic Civilizations IV GalCiv4 Forums

[quote who="perrya555" reply="1" id="3915449"] I think 15% of 77 gets you to 87. I think Supply Attrition is confusing. But the larger the number the less supply attrition. [/quote] Sorry Perry, wrong on both - 1) If additive 15% + 77% = 92% , or if multiplied - 15% of 77% =.1155 and .1155 + .77 = .8855 which would round down to 88%, so heaven only knows how they got 87% 2) tooltip clearly says that the number represents the output lost

2.2.503248 poorly worded planet report in Galactic Civilizations IV GalCiv4 Forums

How can we make a decision about adding 10% Pollution when we have no way to gauge the reward side. We're just supposed to be willing to risk that it's worth it? It would be nice to have an idea of how many Harmony Crystals we'll get. I wouldn't do this for only a couple of them and I certainly don't trust that the use of the word "Immensely" would get me anything more than that. There are still too many events that say you've found a large cache of some resource and y

Stalker0 - I usually do "Self-Reliance" under Individualism, that way all citizens get +3 to all attributes. "Moral Relativism" under Nihilism only upgrades citizens who are Nihilists, but 4x multiplier would certainly make any of them on a planet like this way OP[e digicons]}:)[/e]

gypsy2299 - I think you were confusing my two comments. I added clarifying headers. The first one was simply stating that the "Discovery of Planetary Monitor Plans" didn't have any way to accomplish what it was saying. The second was pointing out that the "Exotic Alien Lazy Genius Fever" was functioning , but not being implemented according to the intent of the wording - less "Diligence", more "Intelligence".

Feels like the combination of "Tower of Procipinee" and "Gift of the Mithrillar" is a tad OP. Especially if the Civ has Archaeologist Ability and can double the impact of "Gift of the Mithrillar". Check out the impact it has on the Governor. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/18/60/1860429/c493d82d-5554-4abf-a1a2-f58771b39b9f.png

"Discovery of Planetary Monitor Plans" - There is no way to implement the AI plans since no artifact shows up in the vault. "Exotic Alien Lazy Genius Fever" - I think they should read -5 Diligence and +8 Intelligence. What is actually happening is what it says. The Diligence for all my citizens is increased by 13 and no impact to Inte
