I also think that 3d for GalCiv3 would be fantastic, very difficult to come up with a user friendly game, but it should be tried for.

Below are several bugs I have experienced in playing a couple of games of 1.31 (custom race, gigantic map, 9 races) With the AI on Genius setting, they are setting up their Economic capital on planets where they have mainly put factories - surely this should be a manufacturing capital!

Sorry my bad, The minimap had defaulted to a display of only anomalies and hence nothing showed up. I had used this setting briefly ina previous game, so I think not going to a proper default setting for the mini-map is still a bug although a very minor one. GM12
V1.31, no mods, gigantic map and choosing a custom race with the default technologies, and hence stellar cartography, only gives an empty mini-map.
