On the movement issue, isn't there a option to recieve a prompt when ships have movements left at the end of a turn? Or not allowing you to end the turn if something has movement points left? I'm pretty sure there is.

Reply to Do you colonize uninhabitable planets? in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

I usually wait to find extreme planets worth colonizing before researching anything. If I see 2 or more planets with a decent PQ, usually 8 or higher, I will spend the time to research the basic techs just to colonize the world. I won't usually build anything unless I have cash reserves, I'll just let the population grow until I can research the advanced tech for 100% production. If its a PQ 18 or higher, I'll go out of my way to get the advanced tech.

Reply to Ship Naming Strategies in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

I will give a "hats off" to any of you who go through that much effort naming your ships. I can see the fun in it from a RP perspective, but mine tend to be even more involved than that. Since I focus on 1 or 2 enemies at a time, I usually look to see what weapons and defenses they have on the ships, and I will make a design to destroy them. So, if I'm fighting the Korx, the ship might be named "Korx Killer", or something REALLY clever like that. If I'm fighting the Terrans, I migh

Reply to Korath and their Pop Growth Bonus. in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

How much does morale suffer if you go that route at the expense of any of techs? Do you have to drop the tax rate significantly to keep them happier at that early of a stage? And do the KoRath start with a negative pop. growth bonus like the Drath and the Thalans? That might be why they get so many bonuses.

Reply to Constructor Micromanagement Revisited in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I also had thought about having constructors be like frieghters. You establish a "route" with a contructor to whereever you wish it to go and then it ferries back and forth depending on its speed and can add modules over and over. Perhaps the planet would still have to use its military spending to produce the raw materials needed for the constructor ferry, so you would have to choose whether or not you want that starport tied up making modules or other ships. That would rock...

Reply to Small map, population capped, approval dropping -- now what? in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

Well, you can always research the morale techs, and there are also some trade goods you can build such as harmony crystals that increase galaxywide morale. Another good way is researching the government techs and building a political capital. It gives a +50% morale boost to whatever planet it is on.

Reply to Recommendations for Isolationist Race? in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

I would also recommend at least the government techs. They give you production and econ boosts you'll need for the game. No reason you can't be a republic/democracy/federation and still be focused on eradication of others. It would simply mean your general populace is also focused on eradicating others, always a good thing!

Reply to How do you make custom races Metaverse compatible? in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

You can only change the Super Ability, HomeStar, pictures, names, and only use whatever starting points the race you are customizing started with. You can edit the ship type they use and the ethical alignment from 0 to 100 without tripping the flag, also. You cant change the starting techs, thats a no-no. If you are editting a canned race, like the Yor, you can still change their super ability, homestar, etc. But you have to start a game and allocate your points, and select your poli

Reply to Please remove mega event that limits travel to 5 in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

[quote]Edit: Yes we can all click the no mega event option when setting up a game. I have a valid question to that response. Why did the devs even bother to make the rest of the mega events?[/quote] Because if all the mega-events simply made it EASIER for you to win your game, why would you ever decide to turn them OFF. The point of the events is to scramble things up. The reason they allow you to turn them off is for the people who can't deal with the negative events. Wantin
