Can those of you who are having crash problems please send me your prefs.ini file from your data folder?

Reply to Hopeful Suggestions/Queries in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

We're working on getting tooltip messages into the game, but we've had so much other stuff to do that it's been difficult. The game will autoturn when you have moved all of your ships that are not on autopilot.

No, I don't think that there's any code behind the slide bars.

Reply to Beta 1 problems in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

The advisor meant that until you have encountered a ship of an alien race, you can't have relations with that race. But once you encounter him, you can destroy the ship (thereby declaring war) or you can trade with that civ, etc. I'm pretty sure that the choices that you make when the event window pops up after colonization only affects that colony.

Reply to Funny Numbers in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

If you count in billions and apply the fibonacci sequence, which has been used to model the growth of a rabit population, you can get above 60 billion in 11 years. I don't know if we're using the fibonnacci sequence or a variation thereof, but I figured that I'd use some of the math that I had to learn. :) 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 33 54 87

Reply to Spelling Errors in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Yes, there are a lot of spelling errors, typos, grammar mistakes, etc, but those are the least of our worries. :) We'll run the input files through a spell checker before the game is released, so there's no need to report things like this.

Debug utility to help us determine what is causing your crashes - please read in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

www.stardock.com/temp/smartexception.exe If you install this program, it will generate a report when Gal Civ crashes. The file will be called GalCiv.EXE.CRA and a dialog will pop up. If you select Open Log Directory, it'll open up a window with the report in it, which you can then e-mail to me at [email protected] Thanks. :)

Yep. Red, can you send me your save game with the reproducible crash, please? Ralph, was this also with a save game? If yes, please send me your game as well. [email protected]

Reply to Beta reporting procedure - and a few bugs in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

You can post bugs here in the forum. We prefer that you post separate bugs in separate posts, to make it easier to go through the posted bugs. This also helps to cut down on redundant posts. So a subject title that indicates what type of bug is being reported is helpful. Typos, grammar mistakes and spelling are low on our priority list at the moment. Before we release the game, we'll run our input files through a spell checker. I keep a list of bugs that have been report

Reply to Find a Star System in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Dominic: if you hit the button between the two arrows at the bottom of the planet data screen, you can change it from the planet view to the system view, so that you can see other planets in the system. Also, if you click on a planet in the planet list, it should center on that star system. Hope this helps at least a little for now.

Yeah, your chances are definitely better on a gigantic galaxy, since you have a lot more stars and planets.

Reply to Something is wrong with the ship selection algorithm, but I can't quite describe it. in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Well, for number 2, it's probably being caused by the mouseovers on the ships in orbit. It doesn't give up focus easily, but I'm working on that. The only ships that will be selected by the Find button are ships on the map (not orbiting) with moves left, that are not on autopilot, and not on sentry duty. I think that there might be something goofy with the way the ships are being de-orbited, so I'm looking into that.

Reply to Planet score?? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

The better a planet is, the better its morale is (all other considerations aside). Population growth and production is affected by morale. I think that the highest that you can get to right now is a class 34 planet.
