Reply to Opportunities to work on GalCiv with Stardock in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I have a sneaking suspicion that the data might be handled by an access database or some program that uses a database backend. Which would mean the idea of version control wouldn't work well in this case. In either case this isn't the thread for that discussion anyway.

Glad to see this. For the writing. How will this be handled for anyone who bought into the game from Crusade and hasn't played the base game? As for Intrigue I can assume that writing will start once the new expansion is closer to being finished? Will it be three separate user manuals or a single general manual with sections covering each portion of the game (Vanilla, Crusade, Intrigue)? Does it include layout as well as writing and knowledge of Acrobat/InDesign or will the initial wo

I tend to put them as close to the planet as possible, or if there is a cluster of worlds in the center of those. The closer the better as you want to flip them quickly and not have to wait for your own culture to build up which can take awhile. Also helps if the enemy world isn't as developed so there is less resistance.

Forgot to mention, that is from a really old version so the actual commands are not the same in some cases. Don't recall which off the top of my head. Once you get it setup and working just type help to list all the current commands, find what you want them type commandname help to see what it does

I haven't built an Intel based computer for the past 20 years. AMD may not always be the best, but the are certainly far far cheaper and have nearly the same performance in most cases.

You can add it from the console if you have cheats enabled.

Reply to GRM Ideology 1.2 Now Available in GalCiv III Modding GalCiv3 Forums

Another issue but not sure which event it comes from. Every so often I find a world (mine or conquered AI) that has a blank description in the colony screen. ie under Research it lists the modifiers such as Research Treaty from Orion 25%. Whatever the event is just shows nothing. Wish I had more info about it.. will be a bugger to find.

They may have less offensive power but that doesn't make them weaker.

Reply to no research labs v2.8 in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

Even in 2.7 there was no Research Lab outside of the campaigns, only Xeno Research. At least for Crusade.

Reply to no research labs v2.8 in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

There should be a tech that unlocks the Xeno Research lab toward the beginning. I think it is Xeno Experimentation which does this.

Food and medical don't seem like they would work well with the mechanics of the game, but the rest should be on a dev todo list. No reason it can't be done :)

There is a mod for that, but it really should be something that is, by default, already a part of the game.

Reply to Galactic Civilizations III - v2.8 Official Changelog (Released 2/8) in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

At half a pop point per colony ship the AI was rather quick about colonizing worlds, though I think part of the issue is the AI also uses colony ships to scout for planets. With only a sensor range of 2 these ships can take far too long at times. While having minimum of 1 pop per ship is better the colony supplying the colonists will run out faster if the home system only has a single world. In this case I think having the starting world as overpopulated might be a good thing fo

Are you saying you want me to add some to GRM? [/quote] Glad you could make use of them. It would be great if you wanted to add them to GRM, if not just let me know what to do and I can do it myself.

Reply to Galactic Civilizations III - v2.8 Official Changelog (Released 2/8) in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

That will slow the AI colonizing worlds, especially if one races to the 2pop after the fact ideology pick. At .1 per turn and the rate some civs start shoving colony ships out as fast as possible. Same with the DLC nerfs. I swear some were nerfed so bad it makes them entirely worthless.
