Reply to Smack about galCiv in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I haven't gotten to play the new beta as much as I have hoped lately, but so far it is looking alot better to me. I like the very huge galaxy.. I think you could get lost in it. :) Anyway, I hope this isn't too far off the subject, but this talk over MOO3 vs GC has me thinking of some questions about copyrights and game making ideas. So if you make a game that is simmilar but better to a game that a other company has sold can you violate there copywrite? My understaning would be as lon

Reply to BETA 4: Last one in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Well, I was just hoping for some sort of process that would save for confusion. I guess it must be the engineer in me or something. ;) I am sure Stardock knows what they are doing more than me, but I hate feeling like I might be wasting their time too. Having lack of few other options,then probably reporting your personal "bug report" list is probably all you can do. :notsure: I am rambling here, but while I am at it I also thought I would metion that I like the game so far, and I lik

I was just wondering if there is or can be a list of bugs compiled for each beta release? So as new and valid bugs are found by other players the list can be updated and read by everyone. This way we don't have to send you 50 duplicates SE reports for the same bug. In general this forum doesn't seem very efficent way for keeping track of such information. If there is such a list were can I find or get access to it? Unless of course you don't want us "Citizens" to know such stuff.. :)

Reply to One more crash to desktop (SE) in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I have been slacking off on my beta testing duties.. :) But am usually tired after a hard days work and my brain is too tired to play games... :VOMIT: I was looking around to see if anyone might have see a problem where you press the dipomacy button and you get a crash to desktop. This seems like maybe a simmilar case. I had it happen before and I couldn't remember exactly what I was doing to lead up to it. I am not sure if this is the same problem Fredrik encountered or not but it sou

Reply to GalCiv AI: Beta 3E - how is it feeling? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I don't know if anyone has seen this, or if this is the bug Lucky was talking about. In my last game I got a space shark (a.k.a. Space monster ) in it. I am not sure how, but I think one of the minor race's planet switched over to one of the other major races. But When I came across that planet it had a space shark symbol on it. But the solar system text would say it was part of the major race. I was able to take over the planet without going to war with the other race. After a while the rest o

Sorry I thought my network was locked up and I retried and got two. :(

Reply to Ships Occupying Same Space Bug! in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I think it was in a different thread but somebody said that you can attack with the keyboard. I tried it out and if you manuver your ship next to the enemy and press the keyboard arrow in the direction of the enemy your ship will attack. At least it is a reasonable workaround in the short term. But the downside is still that the other AI's aren't that smart, and you end up with some pretty messy traffic jams. :)

Reply to Beta 3E in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Yep you are right about that, my bad... Anyway, I wonder if there should be some text or something indicating that race is being removed from the game to make it more clear. That is my 2 cents anyway. It just seemed wierd to me otherwize.

Reply to Ships Occupying Same Space Bug! in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Should have looked at this post first... I mentioned this problem on another post. I saw the same thing it seemed to start afer I started seeing pirates. Not sure if that means anything or not, but I thought it wouldn't hurt a mentioning. But At least I know I am not the only one. :D

Reply to Beta 3E in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Here are some more Beta 3E bugs for your enjoyment :) I thought I would mention for what it is worth, that I saw a simmilar thing with pirate ships at "Dtonn" saw. The wierd thing was it seemed like I couldn't attack any other races ( including pirates ) "Battle Crusers" 95% of the time. If I messed around enouph I would sometimes get lucky and be able to attack them , but why I have no clue. Otherwize the attacking ship would just make a invalid like buzz and go into the same tile a

Reply to Beta 3E in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I have run into a few things that are interesting. I have noticed that after the second election I my party didn't win and it has a "String not found" in the description and every time after that. This is simmilar to what others have seen, but it didn't seem like they were seeing it in this place. The other strange thing was one game I played had a Space Shark in it. When I selected it and pressed the info button the game totaly locked up. I had to kill the program to get out
