Issue 01: Arcean Navigation Center building is supposed to give +X movement to all ships, but does not. Steps to Duplicate: Play the Arceans, or design a race with their technology tree Develop Navigation tech Construct the building - note I built mine next to a Preparedness Center (from Pragmatic Ideology) for the +2 bonus (x) Check ships, no speed increase is registered Build a shipyard at this planet, just in c

[quote who="admiralWillyWilber" reply="42" id="3618735"] The Yor survey ship Moves three parsecs a turn while the Terrans move four parsecs a turn, and the Yor survey ship has 100 hit points while the Terrans has 105 hit points starting. Was that intentional. Why are Snathi minor, and a major species unless one negates the other. [/quote] Survey Ships: Differences like that can be easily attributed to racial choices and/or special resources. One of you
The scout has no drives, the colony ship does. It does get a speed boost by virtue of being tiny, +2 I think?
We'll test and find horrible bugs - which hopefully get fixed before release =)
Been around a long time. It used to be that the paths were not exclusive, you could research all three if you wanted. Then it was changed to just one, but you've always been able to trade for fill-ins.
Ack! Invaders!
I keep looking for my "Howling Dog" star but it has never been sighted.
" + Created new Moral Allowance planetary project that funnels social manufacturing production into boasting the planet's morale." I vote that this be changed to the classic "Bread and Circuses" of Roman times. If not that, then at least add an "e" onto "Morale Allowance".
I'm a MacOS user myself, dual boot to Win 8.1 for GalCiv3.
Research building downgrades make "Ancients" trait even more powerful than it already is. Might want to address that as well?
Can you scavenge pirates?
Would be nice to be able to customize fighters for your carriers.
Tough to balance the + movement building when you have such a variance in # of planets between galaxy sizes and play styles. That being said I always liked the Arcean uniqueness and will likely give this a try when I have time. TY for your efforts.
Your ship might be slow as heck, and thus gets the crap shot out of it by enemies with long range attacks. Armor is great stuff if the enemy has Kinetic weapons. If they don;t it's worthless. Why do you have 400 armor?
Auto-Add bug is in the known list somewhere already. Good thing to notice though.
[quote who="adamb1011" reply="21" id="3560053"] I can't count the number of times ive given up on insane maps! The amount of micro required after a while gets out of control. Also you are screwed without patriotic if you go for military victory. [/quote] Just explode their planets. "The atmosphere and the very waters of the land were corrupted by the infidel and need to be cleansed in fire!"
So I can get out and capture planets ASAP, a lot of my colony ships only have the minimum 0.5 pop on board. And no I'm not using the colonizer etc traits.
[quote]especially as those attack tech-trees have stuff like 'shield leach' which negates the defenses they're aimed at. [/quote] I'm not convinced these actually do anything though?
There is an ideology trait which says "If you sack my home planet the entire universe declares war on you."
Known issue, been reported before. That being said it's still broken =\
Healing pools FTW. Ignore the stadiums etc and don't look back. The Altarian versions are just better because they also give influence adjacency benefits. Social Matrix line is good if you get a lot of adjacency bonuses into them. They help an all-research planet maintain some manufacturing capability, and an all-production planet generate some research. I will normally try to place a Social Matrix right next to the Solar (etc) power plant to enhance this s
Build starbases around your planet and put morale enhancements in the starbases.
[quote who="marigoldran" reply="4" id="3559883"] The founders obviously didn't do a very good job. The reason is because most of the wolves will stay away until the game comes out to rip it to shreds. [/quote] While I don't work for Stardock, I am in the Software QA business and have been for a very long time. The types of issues that exist in the current game are not ones which are great surprises, they were found and documented by folks. Ba
Just buy it directly from Stardock.com. Brad and Co. deserve our money.
Debated this one to death already.
