Every time I check on a planet I always, without a fault bring up the govern tab, it can fit on the Planet menu and it should be, such essential information should not be hidden.

I haven't had that specific problem, but i have had a dirty mouse wheel which causes related issues system-wide. Blow out the slot the mouse wheel sits in. @STARDOCK: While we're wishing, it would be nice if the map was either in 100% icon mode or 100% object mode. It currently uses a 'focal plane' to make the decision on how to display each object. In no case would i ever want a mix of icons and objects. (This would probably speed up rendering logic a tiny bit too).</

1) Forthcoming. It's a frequently requested feature. 2) No asteroid miners. There are plans on how to utilize asteroids in future updates or expansions however. 3) No espionage yet, but planned for future expansion. 4) See here: http://galciv3.gamepedia.com/Official_Galactic_Civilizations_III_Wiki

Thirded. It would help prevent accidentally moving the wrong fleet in the wrong direction.
[quote who="peteincary2" reply="3" id="3556377"] If you trade away the trade resource, the object on your colony still exists and gives the bonus levels to adjacent tiles. So yes. If you trade it away, the other civ gets the trade resource for the specified number of turns. If you bulldoze the trade resource, the other civ still gets the goods regardless. You just end up with -1 of the trade resource, but there is no penalty for owning -1 of them. Tested both of the
Mouseover the emblem or click the tile to find out what it does. They usually provide a bonus to a specific type of improvement built on or near that tile. The popup and the info box in the top right of the screen will explain the details.
I'm talking about the goodies that appear on colony tiles, specifically. So many questions: Does the bonus I get apply just by virtue of possessing it? If i trade it away to another Civ, will the physical object still exist on my colony? Do i still get a bonus from it? What happens if i trade it away and then bulldoze it? Do they stack? What happens if i end up with two of the same? (They say 'one per player', but you never kno

[quote]4. Does the vote by the Council to stop fighting wars actually work? I`ve been attacked even when I thought it had been agreed that all fighting should stop. If that`s just a belligerent AI deciding it don`t care then ignore me. [/quote] It apparently takes a turn or two to activate. I made the same observation as you , but it does work (and really saved me too!)
Here's a list of issues i compiled from playing through my first game. Machine: I'm on a min-spec machine with Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM, and Integrated graphics. I have all FX turned off. The game barely runs and requires much patience. Bugs / Glitches: Custom Ship Icons: Icons for ships that i created myself do not appear in the game (ship list on Designer Screen, fleet contents box, fleet management screen, Ship Battle Victory Screen, and similar places).

I have a similar setup with similar results. It takes several minutes just to get to the main menu. Panning on the map can have 10-second hiccups. Zooming from tactical view to closeup view just kills the poor machine. Clicking on subscreens can take ~10+ seconds to visually update. It's pretty rough.
Good news! The game supports custom races right out of the box. You can use any portrait image you want, including your own! Now you don't have to pretend to be someone else. You can actually be the leader of your own new race.
Costa Rica has no official military power. (They do have police). Maybe this is a better analogy. If you were a big hungry empire looking for a cool little country to swipe, Costa Rica would be tops on the list.
After watching the dev stream game from Friday May 1, 2015 for nearly 1000 turns, I observed something I didn't like from GC2: The AI never wins. In a typical game of GC2, the borders gel up after the colonization phase is over and then stay more or less the same for... ever. No AI empire ever seems to really exploit their position. They just keep the empire running. They shoot things down. They harass. They never go for the jugular. Basically, it felt as if the g

This is a problem even into the late game. This isn't about rushing, this is about me being in the middle of a war and need to be producing transports, and I shouldn't need to have a constructor waiting in the wings every time I destroy a Starbase just to make sure my allies don't claim my own resources 3 turns later. Actually, I often criticized GC2 for not doing this. Glad to see the AI is smarter this time around ;-) *appla
On a related note, what is the logic behind who the AI surrenders to? In GC2, empires would rarely surrender to you. Anybody but you. It would be nice if the player had some (diplomatic) influence on the AI's decision.
[quote who="leiavoia" reply="14" id="3539670"] Small wish: I relate more to the race icons than the planets. Planets are pretty, but convey no useful info. I have no idea which planet belongs to which race. I would rather have just the icon and no planet, or at least a greatly enlarged icon.

It could be as simple as having a funding slider on the main empire management screen. Somewhat like espionage in GC2. Every starbase would get a percentage of the pie. Perhaps could have individual funding priorities (Low, Medium, High, Buy-It-Now!)
I like this idea too. You could easily push it a bit further on the game config screen: [ ] Head Start (other empires wait X turns before "starting") [X] Even Start (everyone starts at once. classic setup) [ ] Late Start (other empires get X turns before you start)<br
