What about a tech that allows us to make a vaccine to protect our kind from the eggs they lay in us? Or a tech that allows us to make a biological weapon of some kind that can be deployed to exterminate them? It can be something that can be added to a ship to attack a planet or deployed somehow to attack a planet. The last one seems like genocide, but is that so bad? They are doing genocide also by converting most races to their kind. We have no defense now, so

Pirate ship breaking its tether and chasing my probe all over the sector. In GC4 pirate ships are “tethered” to their shipyard and can’t go too far from it. Shortly after loading a save in my current game in 0.60.208431a I saw a pirate ship that was well beyond its tether. It looked like it was chasing one of my automated probes, so I took control of my probe and began moving it to verify the pirate ship knew where my probe was at all

I have a stuck turn in a new game with version 0.60.208431a that is repeatable. It is the type of stuck turn that can be "fixed" by going to the main menu and opening the Victory Status.

I was moving a probe along the edge of my starting sector. Suddenly, I got the movie for “first subspace stream travel”. I don’t have any of the techs that allow me to see or travel on subspace streams. I think the probe traveled onto a tile that contains one end of a stream, but I can’t see it yet. Later, when I researched subspace scanning, I found one end of a stream where I got the movie. That movie seems to know where the streams

[quote who="PaulLach" reply="3" id="3823021"] I just started a new game using version 0.6 and I have already run into an issue with anomolies. I can accept that it now takes multiple turns to examine the anomalie, but when the examination is complete I no longer get a dialog telling me what was found.

A ship that can make a ranged missile attack has these possible moves: Use all its moves, then make the ranged attack. Make a normal attack, which is the same as using all its moves, then make the ranged attack. Make the ranged attack first, which uses all its moves, so it can't do anything else. A ship that can make a ranged antimatter bomb attack has these possible moves: Same as the ranged missile attack. Same as t

I met the Kaxx minor race, and they asked me do some research for them. After I agreed to do the research, Kaxx Cryptography appeared as a tech I could research. After I researched it, the quest was completed with all the expected benefits. After that, other races began wanting to trade for Kaxx Cryptography or began asking me to give it to them.<img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/24/51/2451921/a53c391c-99e2-4f8d-9a9f-163ae4a6fb94.png" alt="" width="1920" height="1080

Sometimes the same minor race will appear more than once in a game. When this happens, they are treated like they are two separate races. They give the same quest, but if the quest for one is completed, it doesn’t affect the same quest from the second version when they are discovered. It is possible to complete each quest and choose two
