Reply to Diplomacy Exploit Grande! in GalCiv III AI Talk GalCiv3 Forums

My thoguhts, some of which I have heard before: 1) First payment made immediately (Before tech's trade), so you much have the at least a single payments worth on hand to pay. (this covers absolutely absurd values). 2) Declaring war absolves they person you are declaring war ON from having to pay you, but the United Plant still requires agreesors to pay off their debt. So if YOU declare war, you still must make payments until paid off

Reply to Bug / Exploit: Dupicate ship in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

I have duplicated this twice more. Can't swear on the decommission/destroyed, but mine have fought and combat with problems. I do still CTD fairly regularly anyways, so destruction may have caused CTD, but will attempt to duplicate and see. But definalty seems to be a issue of checking availability when button is clicked, not necessarily when orders are processed

Reply to Severe problem (Game Breaking) with Large Empire Penalty for both players and AI with conquest on insane map in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

To me, I still really thing the LEP should be based of the percentage of habitable planets colonized. Thus one a rare/rare tiny map, You start noticing the hit on even your second/third colony if there are only 20 habitable planets. Likewise on an Insane Abundant/Abdunant you might see the same penalty when you have 300 planets. My personal thoughts on mechanics. Each planet gives you

Bug / Exploit: Dupicate ship in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

Setup: Have a ship with high move (to make it easier) Have a ship (you want to duplicate in orbit of planet). Tell ship with high move to move long distance. Quickly go click on planet with ship to duplicate, and start clicking 'eject' to launch ship. it does not 'launch' until they other ship finishes moving, but I have been able to get up to ten copies of my 'ship to

Contructor tricks in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

For distant star base, I have found what seems to be an exploit to me, if you can build a ships with multiple constructor modules (the more the better). If you use them all save the last one (so ship still exists), then upgrade ship to a different model, it will have ALL the constructors of that model. So if you have 2 models wiith multiple contructor modules, then you can send A ship to remote location, and upgrade all you want, for a

Reply to Repair is too slow in this game in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

Hmm they do repair faster in orbit, hadn't actually noticed that, will have to test. Personally the biggest change I would like to see, is the option to 'repair' in a yard. (likewise upgrade). So that instead of building a new ship, a ship could go into the yard and get repaired at a fairly fast rate (or hell even at the % damaged vs Build time). As 'free' repair the existing is ok,&nbsp

Reply to Large empires & micromanagement hell in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

For me so far while I prefer Insane /rare/rare maps to be hug but not too many planets (with lots of space between folks) The 'planets' I can manage fairly ok and while I could list improvements, I can live with what is. Now Starbases I find very annoying. Changes I would like to see: 1) Starbase 'build alll' Probably only an option after 'ring' has been selected, but after that a check

Reply to [6.2] Ideology - Pioneering: no free colony ship! in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

That is a 'bug' (or feature) of any of the free ships designs. If you obsolete the 'default' design you do not get the items. I have seen the same issue with free drones for which ever trait it is that gives your the free drone, and expect it (though hante every had the Ideology trait) for the trait that gives your merchants free protection. Short answer it dont' obsolete the 'default ships' or do so

[quote quoting="post"] I"m good and irked at the moment; my buddy and I just finished discussing this in detail, so I've confirmed I'm not the only one that feels this way. 1) Pirates. What the #$%(. No rules for pirates? No supply? No cost? Just appear in the middle of nowhere and start raiding? This is "raging barbarians" from Civ 5, and we hate it. I don't want to DISABLE pirates, I want them to play by THE SAME RULES AS I D

Combat viewer 'Top Down' view in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

Please allow control of the zoom level in the top down view. While overall my favorite view, it starts out ok (a bit too far zoomed out, but good for begining) but rapidly zooms way to close in and often NO ships are actually visible as the dance around each other and I see the occasional beam/missile flash across the screen. If the top down had a controllable zoom level, (whether one of a few pre-set, say close, medium, far; or

Reply to Can't improve planet tiles on some systems in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

I have had this issue only on VERY large (maybe 20+) planet sizes. (usually when 'tweaking' a home world or so for cheats fun :-) And, I have noticed at times, it clearly seems to be related to number of usable tiles, since I have had some that say, the first 2 teraforms wont work, but then the laters ones WILL allow some tiles to be recovered, and (larger) planets, that nothing can be recovered.
