Reply to Old GalCiv Wolf Notes: Bugs, Feedback, Suggestions. in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="Larsenex" reply="4" id="3516451"] I would like it if Pirates were treated almost as if they were a minor faction. In fact they would hamper and attack everything/everones ships and actually favor going after and raiding trade routes over attacking ships (which is historically what pirates did anyway). Also it would be cool if they actually had a planet which was 'hidden' and was used as a base somewhere on the map. This would come with its

[quote who="mbrash5" reply="1" id="3516387"] Trade does need to significantly be touched on. I've never liked the whole "the further the planet the better the income" mechanic. As it always seemed to create very unnatural and unrealistic trade routes where these "trade worlds end up being every colony on the edges of the map. There should be some sort of "network" between colony's. Like making a trade chain which each link in the chain increases the overal

[quote who="Seabrook" reply="17" id="3515990"] I think constructors should never be used up. Constructors can have 1 module and easy to build (10-15 turns) at the start of the game. They are like workers in civilization games, who never get replaced. [/quote] the problem here (at least IMHO) is that a constructor is essentially just a pile of parts strapped to an engine. it would cost more in turns to send it back to reload then it would to just build another one</

Reply to Instances where planets/alien planets or starbases could be treated to extend ship range in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

I believe you have me confused with someone else. As for 7) it ties in closely with 6) if fuel is only expended when "manouvering" then the ship could theoretically aim home use thier last bit of fuel to get moving and hope they dont run into anything

Reply to Instances where planets/alien planets or starbases could be treated to extend ship range in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="admiralWillyWilber" reply="2" id="3515981"] On considering option 1 this is probably done this way because fuel is not taken into account on the game. The current idea is unrealistic. What would create range is fuel assuming you were going into a strait line. Since most ships don't, what should be done instead the movement points each turn should be subtracted from the total allotted movement points for the ship. Besides an engine module there needs to be a fuel module. T

new project ship building in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

im actually surprised this isint in the game already but its really simple have a project for any planet with an attached shipyard that would send all unused production to the shipyard it would act the same as setting the social/military slider to 100% military but also the same as a project. meaning i dont have to come back to this planet every time i research a new tech. so if i set my M/S slider to 50/50 and then choose shipbuilding it would send all production to the shipy

[quote]- What confused me: When I was done rushing my factories and building my pleasure centers, I wanted to stop construction and focus on ship building. It took me almost 10 mins to figure out how to get the "next turn" button to stop reading idle colony. This was very frustrating. I am not sure if my work around is correct. I ended up going to govern tab and changing the production palette to 100% wealth. This changed the idle colony to next turn. After that discovery I continued to

Reply to Constructor spam in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

heres my thoughts on starbases first i would like to see a constructor to start a chain of upgrades example if i want to build the research upgrades in the economy starbase i need 3 constructor modules. 1 for the starbase, 1 for the economy ring, and 1 for the research module. after that the upgrades to the research building would take time and an upgrade cost second a starbase governor screen this screen would allow me to set

[quote] but I find the limitations of what buildings they have access to, and the lack of late tier terraforming to be a severe downer for me. Overall, I like them, but not being able to full utilize a planet and the limitations of their pop cap per planet makes them somewhat less appealing.

Reply to Starbases are uneffective vs ships??? in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="dragoaskani" reply="4" id="3513114"] No starbases are valuable targets of opportunity. I feel they should easily be destroyed by anything bigger then a small hulled ship equipped with starter weapons. This forces you to have to decide if you want to allocate ships to defend them or not. I in no way shape or form want to see starbases of the power of say the ones in Sins of a Solar Empire for instance. [/quote] i totally disagree While
