Second reason valid, but as far as the first part of the first about being customisable any option no one would use is useless. For one I shut off surrenders and most victory options. See I take advantage of options, but if they are something I don't like like shutting off tech trading. I would never use that option. As long as my computer could handle it I would leave options on, but you already said after a few times you would shut it off.

As of Twilight there were two kind of treaties that would work a research treaty or alliances. I like research treaties because of the names if they went with alliances instead they could, or they may have a new option.

That is basically the Thalan. That doesn't mean that you couldn't have another insect. The main reason I like them is because I thought they were creative. I would like them to do better. I'm just not that creative. I did think that alien or their copycat when originally aired the Undine were pretty creative. I thought that E.t. and the Vesari looked pretty cool. I think that the new Xander look is pretty cool they should make that a faction instead. Shape shifters and parasites p

This is a great way to advertise the game. I know I watched a couple walk throughs of distant worlds before I decided that the game was worth buying.

Well Willy if we only had one per planet then you would only be renaming an already existing unit unless this was something everyone could build. The only way that you could have 10 per game is if a faction could build more than one of these otherwise they would be super projects. We don't have one per star system improvements. We could have regional wonders cover 1/20th of the map that way if all factions were even then is wouldn't be like a super project where it would cover t

You would think they are going to get wiped out. Maybe the Humans might be able to strike a deal. If it goes down to humans fighting with genocide their will always be activists and reservations, besides each side may be able to stalemate each other like the Koreans. Their is a few wild cards that hasn't been played. or a combination of both. 1. Now that the terror stars has been destroyed the Thalans may look on the Drengins, and decide that the Humans make better allies. Then tu

[quote who="OvermindPrime" reply="50" id="3439390"] Well, finally the Terran game programmers have realized that it is completely, and morally, ethical to eat the cattle species when they taste good. Also, knowing that exterminating vermin species to make room for the Chosen Race is an ideal to be admired and encouraged, it warms my heart to see the understanding this is not evil. Besides, it is fun! And don't forget, enslaving other races is good for economic growth and stability,

[quote who="odjntrade" reply="31" id="3439004"] So this really devolved into Steamtalk. Each species should have a baseline tech tree that is always available and then unlock random branches. For instance, research materials in space provided you with increased research rates and that was it. Why not tie in a system that gives you access to a new branch of research for holding that material. You don't know what it will inspire your people to design and thus be

[quote who="Zydor" reply="89" id="3439014"] The current plan is that the production wheel sets the civilization default with the ability of players to override it on a planet by planet basis. This allows players who want to micro-manage their planets to do so without forcing them to do so if they don't want to. The question is: What level of per planet tinkering do you think the game should have and why? [/quote] This I guess this is the games way to specialize

Not talking game terms but feasably unfeasably if one of these things were able to be build it would make no sense to move them to a distance of an astronomical unit, but make them much closer resource wise and make the habitat modules seperate and further back beaming the energy back to the habitat islands. A Ringworld is almost a Dyson swarm except a Dyson swarm is a bunch of satalites doing the same thing.

[quote who="WIllythemailboy" reply="85" id="3438690"] I see you're still having issues with this. There is no such thing as "the custom tech tree". Custom civilizations, both player civilizations and custom AI opponents, could be assigned any tech tree in the game. I think the default option was the general "minor civ" tech tree, but there was no reason to leave it that way. Just an idea not an issue. If you want this tech tree it is only for customized factions

Reply to Megastructures in GalCiv III Founders GalCiv3 Forums

A Dyson swarm maybe. A Dyson circle maybe. But a Dyson Sphere is very unlikely. If we turn the power consumption when the satalites hit the ecliptic plane and turn the power consumption on when they left then it wouldn't affect the other planets and stuff, but this would give less power. This should be an option to use if you want. Whats a ringworld.
