The Vault isn't the only thing which could use an update. The databanks haven't seen anything new since the timeline got added last November. I realise, that the devs are busy making the game, but even something small would be nice. Like a civilisations-entry for the Iridium Corp. (or the Snathi).
[quote who="Gilmoy" reply="4" id="3490217"]These 3 specializations should all use the same game mechanism: they globally modify all colonies, find all tile improvements of their type (e.g. that say "Research Improvement"), and give +1 level.[/quote] That's how they work, as far as I can tell.

GalCiv 2 also had tech-cost inflation, so I doubt, that this is a bug.
It's only a visual bug. The actual build-time is not affected. Anyhow, the devs know about it.

There are currently some bugs with the auto-upgrade for certain approval improvements. The devs are aware of them.

Well, I've overlooked some during my last search. Hopefully that's all of them now. ResearchCloisters AscensionGate should be QuantumResearchFoundation AscensionGate QuantumResearchFoundation

[quote who="joeball123" reply="42" id="3489396"] We also know that Galactic Civilizations parsecs do not actually represent real-world parsecs; my best guess for how they actually relate would be that the real-world parsec is the distance that a hyperdrive-equipped vessel with a 1 parsec per week movement rating would travel in one week when the hyperdrive is negligibly affected by gravity (i.e. far from any nearby massive bodies like stars and planets), though Gaunathor may turn up with

The devs have already addressed this here : [quote]We have played with several options for building Starbases. In early builds the player would build a starbase from a planets production queue, this tended to slow the players ability to both build up their worlds, and build up their Starports. In short it was not fun and slowed down the game. We also consi
It's supposed to increase the level of your manufacturing improvements by +1. However, it actually increases the level of your research improvements instead. (You have to wait a turn before the bonus gets applied.) Environmental Research, on the other hand, is supposed to increase the level of your research improvements, while actually increasing the level of your manufacturing improvements. So basically, those two techs are switched up.
[quote who="Achronous" reply="1" id="3488210"]Speed of ships is also supposed to be tied to the mass around, so in an empty place the ships just wouldn't move much.[/quote] Not quite. The more mass in an area, the weaker the space-folding effect of the hyperdrive. So, the less mass in an area, the faster your ships are. With no mass in the area, like outside our galaxy, your ships would have infinite speed. However, as Frogboy <a href="https://forums.galciv3.com/449660/get;3451793
[quote]Windows Vista Home Premium, Service Pack 2.[/quote] That's is the most likely reason. Vista isn't officially supported. The game may run, but it's not guaranteed.
Both the Colonial Hospital and the Xeno Medical Center have the same manufacturing cost (39). My guess is, that this is causing a divide-by-zero error, because the upgrade-cost is 0, which results in that huge turn number to appear. The actual upgrade-time is still only 1 turn as expected.
I originally thought it was bugged too, but it is actually correct. The first cost-reduction is for manufacturing improvements, and the second one for research improvements. It's just confusing, because both use the same icon and name.

[quote] Has there been anything said about how combat works in GC3?[/quote] The devs talked about it a little in this dev stream .
[quote] So you make a constructor with NO hyperdrive?[/quote] The hull has a hyperdrive. The other engines are just in addition to it.
It's not a question of whether TC can be done. It's a question of whether the devs want it in their game. Last I checked, they don't (as exemplified by a post of Stardock's CEO himself). [quote who="Frogboy" reply="38" id="3485465"]I like tactical battles too but GalCiv isn't the place for them.[/quote]
Shipyards being able to build multiple ships at once was part of the plan . At least, it was when Frogboy made that post. [e digicons] [quote who="Frogboy" reply="3" id="3457705"] The idea is that a shipyard could pump out multiple ships per turn. So you build a shipyard on the other side of the galaxy and have your palnets point to it and then it cranks out tons of stuff rather than having

[quote]Iridium world is effecting the entire civ rather than just the plant on which it is built. All my planets currently have +750% wealth just from these improvements.[/quote] This is because the improvement has this tag Global for both the income and influence bonus.
Because it didn't happen during the Alpha (or at least, nobody noticed it). In any case, the devs said, that it will be fixed soon .

The maintenance for all those buildings is making a big dent into whatever money you're making, so I would look into that first.

Well, that's the question though. Did they just forgot to put the tags, or did they not put them intentionally?
In GalCiv 2, Super Projects, Galactic Achievements, and Trade Goods, were hardcoded to be indestructible. Normal improvements, on the other hand, required the Indestructable-tag for that. I'm wondering, if the devs just haven't gotten around to write the necessary code yet, or (if they're not going the hardcoding-route this time) if they just forgot to add the IsIndestructible-tag to all those improvements. It's also possible, that
