Upgrading between colony and troop transport keeps the same number as colonists/soldiers...both directions. I accidentally upgraded one ship, so reupgraded it back and had all my people.
"Rai and Jiri at Lungha. Rai of Luwani, Luwani under two moons. Jiri, of Ubaya. Ubaya of crossed roads, at Lungha. Lungha, her skies grey" So it seems that at least not all of them love the "faulty translator" as much as you do We don't "love" it, we just don't CARE. "Khidir beneath Momouteh" <
I hate to sound like a broken record on these forums, but that sounds like your video drivers. In your GalCiv2 folder (or subfolder...I can never remember where exactly) is a "debug.err" file. If you were to copy/paste the first 3-4 sections into a post I'm sure someone could help you identify the problem. edit: Screen shots: using the print screen button will copy a screen shot into your clipboard. I've found the basic paint program that came with my computer makes it easy to pa
Agreed. The auto shift to next ship with movement points is even more aggravating.
"Scotty, do you always multiply your repair times by a factor of 4?" Scotty: "How else do you think I keep my reputation as a miracle worker?" I remember seeing this, but since it worked out just fine I didn't bother worrying about it. With the extensive list of things they did tweak, maybe this is one they felt just didn't deserve the time. "Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze" "It means
While I've not experienced it personally..... yes. It is supposedly very common for races to surrender to someone else out of spite. throw up some ISB's and convert them anyway!
My only guess....a guess mind you... is that you are clicking on something else, but want two of them and the list changed after the first selection leaving your cursor on top of the Restaurant, which you then select. I've selected things by accident doing just that, so it's what comes to mind. As far as having a super project get built in the same manner a tile might auto upgrade, that I've not seen.
If you have a saved game not too far before game's end, you may want to download "Smart Exeption" from Stardock Central and run it. It won't fix your problem, but it will generate a report for you to send in to Stardock that will all but pinpoint the line of code causing your problem (you have to have the game crash with SE running). Posting your "debug.err" file may help as well.
They should repair slowly, just like ships.
Virtual reality centers are the bomb.
you know, I've never looked for them. I do know the Neutral learning center is the most powerful research building in the game, but haven't even thought about the weapons,etc.

JP: Be careful making ships with 1hp. While they have their uses later in the game (cargo hull lots of engines and 1 weapon to hunt down transports), relying on a fleet of them will get you killed.
Hmmmm... I didn't think of this when I first read your post, but are you tech trading with the other civ's? I guarantee you they are trading heavily amongst themselves.
A couple games ago the Arcean and I were in a corner, with me farther out. The Terrans were in the middle, the Altarians and Torians were on the far side of the map (Gigantic map), and the Iconians were on the same side as us, but in the other corner. Not liking my back door open to a potential enemy, the Arcean's were the first to go. Eventually I sneak attacked the Terrans, but didn't realize they already had alliances with everyone else. Fine. Iconians go down next so I only
Ok bought this game off the shelf and didn't even know there was a collectors version. I see some parts I don't have lol.. How do I upgrade my game without reinstalling everything? If you go to the downloads screen, you can download the CE stuff. I also highly recommend going to the GC2 library and downloading Kyro's ship mod.
(as in not intended by the script)? Exactly. The vocabulary "gaffs" in GC2 are intended. So they're ok?
Actually. I originally downloaded 1.0x directly from Stardock. While I did receive 1 email verification, I have never had to type in the serial number. Never. Last week , while waiting for beta 4b to install, I noticed a small "register serial number" box in the lower right corner of SDC. I went ahead and registered my serial number...but nothing forced me to do so. Maybe I've just had a more positive experience...or been lucky. Who knows?
Actually, they do that to prevent human players from sneaking in a transport and taking their worlds without an effort. A troop transport (unless armed) cannot "land" troops while there's a ship in orbit...and even if armed has to destroy all ships in orbit first. That is why the AI puts an unarmed ship in place, since most transports do not have weapons. Play the game. If you find Normal too easy, there's several other difficulty settings higher. BTW... there were so
I figure I can replace my gaming habit with a less expensive alcoholic habit. Anyone care to mention their all time favorite games? You think? During my hour commute home Monday I started thinking about those last couple years in the Navy and all the drinking I did. In two years (mind you, only "home" for 4 months a year), I spent $12,000 in

Actually, it's not really "hacking" the game. GalCiv2 is presented as a fully moddable game. Stardock intended for most every portion of the game to be moddable. Otherwise, I honestly do not know what the crime tag is for, but am curious.
Yes, but what difficulty level did you play on? It strikes me from this example that the Bright AI is obviously limited in how it's allowed to respond to a cultural threat. Bright was also made easier in 1.1. Here's the rub: Alienrider <TD clas
Can't help but grin. I couldn't find it with a basic attempt at searching the forums, but there is a thread in the mod folder that covers modding the tech tree in great detail.
I remember reading something about this problem in the forums, but I doubt I could find it again. There's a good chance you'll be asked to post your "debug.err" file. Ironically, if the game was still crashing, you could install smart exception (from stardock central) and it would generate a report all but telling them what line of code caused the crash. With the game working, granted with a major glitch, this may prove more interesting to solve.
