I,ve played the thalans a few times. The 6b population limit combined with weak soldering is tricky, you can't build unlimited transports with such low numbers. When you're soldiering is weak you need large numbers of soldiers to invade a planet. I could solve this in a couple of games by buying farm and soldiering techs, usually from minor races. Improvements which enhance population growth are also quite useful.
[quote]Do you run in windowed mode?[/quote] yes
Still no fix for this?
[quote]game is still crashing sometimes when you try to upgrade a ship in the ship yard. i should say crashes to desk top. this seems to happen mostly when i hit the defense button.[/quote] The game always crashes the first time I switch to another tab, that's usually weapons.
Some trading this krynn does. I'm not sure if this is a bug or a scam on the side of the Krynn.. [img]http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l29/sjemmeke/tradescreenKrynnThalan.jpg[/img]
Disabling show battle sequence and show opponent's battle sequences worked for me. After I disabled them I had no freezes of the game and no disappearing turnbutton. I switched them off in a game in which ships refused to move and the turnbutton caused problems, after that I could play on without a problem.
[quote]Instead of loosing the building, you keep it. And you can build them too[/quote] Okay, the keeping makes sense. However, if I can build these buildings because I have the tech, why shouldn't I build them without conquering the other race.
[quote]+ TWEAK: On the Trade Screen, an asterisk is placed next to the technology indicating that it is unique to that civilization[/quote] Does that mean that you can't buy it or is it just useless to another race?
[quote]Was the miner on auto-improve mode?[/quote] Mine was.. automatic mode stopped everytime it finshed building a mine. When I unchecked "cancel ship desination on left click" the problem stopped and the miner stayed in automatic mode. Checking that option made it losing automatic mode once again.
I'm not sure about it but it usually focus is set on a ship who tries to attack a planet without ships orbiting the planet. In my last game this happened too but with one of my own ships so I could cancel the order. In the games I sent the ships are AI's so you can't influence their behaviour.
[quote]The turn button goes away from time to time, effectively freezing the game.[/quote] Happens to frequently, restarting the game isn't very helpful because in the following turns the problem comes back. I've sent in a few savegames.
No, I've nothing saved, and the last used weapon was probably beam, that' the branch I usually research and use.
As long as you don't touch a button related to the shipbuilding it keeps on building. But I can't remember it to happen in DA and I've played the Korath a few times there.
The Korath took over a Torian planet which was building fighters with a spore ship. After that the planet keeps on building torian fighters and transports eventhough the ships are not available in the shipyard. And after a few sporeships conquered some Terran planets the korath are building terran heavy fighters too.
Sometimes the last ship doesn't get destroyed,so the ship combat screen keeps going. Ships are circling around doing nothing. Hitting the done button is the only way to finish the last ship of the losing side and get the combat report.
I got a message in the victoryscreen that I would win a influence victory next week, influence was 78%. The week before my influence was 67%. I played the Drengin. I always thought that you had to be over 75% influence over a (peaceful) period of 10 weeks before there was a victory. Is that changed or is it the Drengin?

Somebody can explain this to me? [img]http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l29/sjemmeke/tradescreenvegans.jpg[/img]
I'm using beta 2
I've created some spies, but when I try to place them the button to place a spy is greyed out.
Take your time and get it right
Nightmare torpedo doesn't show in weaponstab in the shipbuildingscreen eventough it was researched.
with colony management, the function of tabs "Newest" and "All" in the available projects pane are switched
There are some other threads on the same subject. Pirates aren't a problem, they take out everything except the Minors. When it happens you can either research (sliders maximized) weapons and defences to outgun them, or make faster transporters to take all those "defenceless" planets. You win either way.
2) Then I don't understand why it won't let you move it to the open space. That's either a bug or there's something abotu the situation I'm not understanding. Is the ship outside your influence range? If so, move to your sphere of influence in order to move around.
