Try some standard nomenclatures like BB, CA, and so on. I use BB for standard battleship, BBH for heavy and BBX for the ‘end of the line tech ships. Get creative and come up with some new ones. I generally name my ship based on hull, and name like DNW Bismark (war dreadnaught). The DNW will chang3e as you upgrade the class.
Try abbreviations, OR shorter names!!! ;)
TA only gives you the basic ships and templates. It's up to you to load'em up!
I haven’t had that event bestowed on me, while I have seen it happen to other races. The one that does bother me is the ambassador getting killed and an ensuing war starting. I’ve had this event three times in one game! Come on, been there done that! All you get out of this is some ‘target practice’ and their ‘Vengeance’s’ scatted across your territory.
I've also tried a number of different map sizes and combos. I've even made some 'test maps' ala 'evil test map' and still no results. I remeber only one game where the Korath expanded well, via their spore ships!!! :LOL:
Most mods tell you where to install the files. Check out the mod forum for more help.
Check the screen resolution vs the graphics capability of your PC. You can manually edit the pref file if you can't seem to change it from the main menu. Use the optimal settings for your monitor.
Thanks for posting them Hydro!
Even a fleet of Anorian Rangers couldn't take this fleet!!! There needs to be a cap on the weapons for these ships. You can't have pirates that can destroy everything on the map??? I understand the event, BUT tone the ships down to a reasonable scale to at least be able to fight them. Just like the mini pirate event. You need to deal with them and still not risk losing your whole infrastructure in the process. A simple concept. Pirates don't make money by destroying tr
I had the "Pirates From Hell" Mega event last night!!! It was gross, BUT the pirate ships looked kool! I attacked one of the pirate fleets with my best battle fleet and took out four pirate ships before they killed my fleet. There were still five pirate ships left in the fleet. I only have two more fleets left and will lose just about every base I have on the map as the pirates were all placed near my trade ships and bases. There are over fourty fleets and many more individual ships. THIS GAME i
LOL!!!
If they were truly 'random events', you wouldn't have to do that!
The Jagged Knife event is triggered by a lack of transports. You'll notice you will never have any transports available when the event occurs. The other events are also triggered by certain "playing styles", but I'll let you figure which ones!!! Have fun, enjoy!
There's an option box in the main menu that let's you keep all the existing parts on a ship. Just check it off.
Do you have to do that for each planet?
It's very common when something blocks a TS movement. Sometimes it just happens to the regular ships too! I've had it a few time, but was able to find the ship causing the problem and 'spaced out' the movement...
Star Dock Central or Impulse. The most current release is 1.96.
Don't forget a 'save game' where this bug is happening. Maybe sending a SG to someone else to try and see if the bug is repeated on their setup?

Templates do not store any systems or weapons. They just contain the ship parts and design. Even if you see them in the pics, they are not contained in the template.

Yea, that's just not right! I would try a complete reinstall...
I've used it without any problems.
Some techs are RACE specific. Let's say you capture or influence an Iconian world with a pop of 16b. If your Terran, you will end up with all the food and morale building getting destroyed as you can not get those techs. So, you'll wind up with a 16b down to 8b population loss on the next turn and you will not get any of the Iconian morale buildings. You'll have to choose to let the population drop or purchase a Xeno farm and be left with 16b unhappy Iconian campers!!! :LOL:
Who'd have thunk it!!! :LOL:
All you can do is edit it. If all the parts are there it won't take long. I had to do that myself and it wasn't as bad as it looked! If you need to add parts, just click on an existing one and then the new part. It will be sized automatically and will be on the same angle (if any) the original part is. Even the 'force' can't help you now!!! :LOL:
