also, if you were traveling at one million MPH, it would take almost 6,000 years to travel one parsec

whats a Parsec,anyways? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

so i was thinking, to travel one parsec in a week seems like such a small distance, so i looked up exactly how big a distance that is. a parsec is 3.09 x 10 to the 13th power kilometers, or 3.26 lightyears, or 6,274,130,000 (over 6 billion) times the diamteter of the earth, which is 7, 926 miles across. Yes, I am a nerd

Reply to Starbase question! in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

and also, you get revenue from other ships trading at YOUR planets, so, does the trade bonus starbases near your planets give you increase that income as well?

Starbase question! in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

OK, I know that a starbase with the appropriate upgrades increases freighter revenue when a freighter is in its area of influence. But would it be more profitable to have the starbase further out along the trade route (near its destination), closer to its home base, or does it matter? Thanks!

Reply to Trade Question in Trade Stardock Forums

question, if you have a fully trade-upgraded starbase in a sector with a planet of yours, does the computer AI make an economic determination as to which planet to trade with? Like, can you make your planet more attractive to foriegn traders, or are their decisions random?

Trade Question in Trade GalCiv2 Forums

In GC1 the longer you had a trade route running the more money it made. and then for some reason it reverted back to almost nothing and begain the process over. Is the trading revenue in GC2 like this?

Reply to Yor AI in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Actually, studying simple thermodynamics revelas that organic life is exponentially more "efficent" (output/input) than any machine ever created, including computers. As for processing power, the most powerful supercomputer today has the raw processing capability of a guppy fish . I tihnk the only way to get an AI, a REAL AI even starrted is to create a software program, and place it in a world
