Hey there! There will be a keypad, and you'll be able to make your own parts by combining existing ones and saving that as a full part. You won't be able to "saw" parts in half though as far as I know :( Your english is decent too! Just a few words wrong here and there.

[quote who="perigrine23" reply="23" id="3473129"] Have you actually tried climbing up multiple trees? Because I did and it became impractical fast. The game mechanic is balanced as it is. There is no real advantage in pursuing multiple trees. It becomes cost-prohibitive fast and you won't be able to reach the higher tiers without spending all your production building and destroying improvements that grant ideology on completion.[/quote] On current maps. </

[quote who="Jarac" reply="16" id="3472719"] I like the idea. One thing I will say though, is that at a certain point if you pursue Malice more than Benevolence and vice versa, it should lock you out of the other tree. After all they are complete opposites. It wouldn't make sense if you tried to pursue both Benevolence and Malice, because I think that would destabilize the hell out of a nation in real life (would be an interesting thing to see). I think both of the extremes can work

One thing I intesely dislike is the fog of war, it needs a visual overhaul. I know, small, piddly little thing, but you see so much of it, it needs to look passable.

If you want to RP your empire go for it, but dont restrain those, that dont want to RP or otherwise specialize. "This is bad because it means that those that specialize, or otherwise RP their civilizations will be put at an extreme disadvantage for not pursuing all three branches. Specialization should be rewarded,

Yo dawgs. It just suddenly came to me in a flash of inspiration; the alignment trees need to be limited in a way. Look at my mock-up of how they are currently; (I'm a professional artist as you can see) As it stands, you can select whatever you want from the trees so long as you have the requisite amount of points from random events and

We're currently limited to the small maps because of the way ships are rendered. Bigger maps should be out in a month or so, possibly with the next large update this month. :) Are you the same guy from Steam I was arguing with over where you bought it? lol. Sorry for being an asshole earlier.

Quite the DARCAstic thread we have here. I'm fine with big robots as ground forces, so long as they are given a handwave and a semi-plausible explanation. For instance, in Mass Effect, Reapers (huge metal space Cthulhus the size of small mountains) can land on planets because they can project an intense mass-reduction field, making them nearly weightless/much lighter when exposed to gravity, where they would otherwise fall apart/mangle the ground.
