Reply to Why doesn't GalCiv display planets to accurate scale? in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

Ah, yes, a game of conquering the galaxy where you have to worry about the dating lives of all ten trillion of your citizens. Maybe by the time there are ten trillion humans your descendants might be able to finish a game. That sounds like fun....Not! mumblefratz just got an erection

It would be cool to be able to look at a map with things drawn to scale correctly. But i wouldn't want to play the game that way. Maybe GC3 could have a look-but-don't-touch layer? I should finally have an adequate graphics card soon and I have little doubt I'll spend some time just touring the eye candy once my machine can generate it. I'd do the same from time to time with a "just for looks" view.

QQ: does load game still give ai an extra turn? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

qq = quick question, in this case awhile back it was revealed that the ai received a turn at the start of every load game. i've looked but haven't been able to find anything about this recently. is this still the case? i'm running into audio bugs and have to quicksave > quit > reload to fix it. i mean i can turn all the audio off and chip away at the weeks of mp3s i've got here but i love love love the music in this game.

you mean, um, god? the plural of bonus is bonuses. you look like a boner when you type boni, or bonii. other than that, looks like fun!

Reply to What the stupidest thing you ever saw the AI do? in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

it was over a year ago, and on either challenging or tough, but a race i was at war with kept a fleet parked next to one of my fully mined out resouces with zero combat ability. it was either weapons or econ or morale because if they'd taken it out, it would have made the war much harder. later on (either on a higher difficulty or after a patch,) i was counting on a race doing the same thing. but, the bad guys ended up taking out like 7 of my stacked econ bases in two turns heh.

you are a shell of a human filled with Hate, Arrogance, and Issues. but if i was a shell of a human filled with Hate, Arrogance, and Issues, wouldn't that imply that i was, in fact, devoid of those qualities?

Reply to Do you manually move population to low-pop worlds? in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

i frequently use troop transports to do this. i'll use 2-3 production planets to pump out the xports, launch them with 1 dude, then each planet has a rotation of 3-4 other planets which the xports pick the troops up from. from there they'll either ferry them to a border colony for a pop boost and return to pick up more, or they'll slink away to a shadow of the galaxy to await further orders.... in the meantime, the planets that feed the xports are usually at 100% a
