Thanks for a grand game! :D 1) On the point everyone is making about the number boxes for peddling money/influence: It works fine, just it seems everyone would like 'Overwrite' the default behaviour, instead of 'Insert'. I would add further, allow the space bar be used to overwrite without causing problems, eg Changing '100' to '10' by typing '10 ' (one zero space) instead of having to reach for the delete key. Allow the keyboard insert key to still toggle between entry m

It is awesome that I'll be playing this game in the (distant, admittedly) company of people like Hurley, who are gutsy enough and have enough character to own up like he has done when he's thought he's done something questionable. Kudos to you, Hurley, for your last message despite the very apparent frustration you've been going through. If it is of any comfort, I've been trying to download just the core game for about the last 60 or 70 hours :notsure: . On a 56k6 modem. In New Zealand

Reply to Once more to the breach, dear friends... in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I know the subject for this thread is a misquote. When you step back and consider that 'unto' once meant 'where' or 'why' (probably 'why', as I remember), then me saying 'once more to the breach' is what I meant to say. Not 'once more why a breach'. Quibbles, quibbles ;) Damian ~SDC~

Once more to the breach, dear friends... in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

It's only the fifth or sixth time this evening that I've got the time-out message on anomoly.md_ . Which means there's been three times that many attempts to download it by SDC. Who's been hogging so much bandwidth that a 56k6 modem in NZ cannot get more than 500KB to 1MB of that file downloaded each time... and sometimes less than that? *sigh* :( I'm NOT giving up... but I've gotta sleep sometime. Suggestion for SDC: Auto-nurse option that, whenever there is a file

It's a specialist single player game, Feannag. Why ruin it with multiplayer? (Similar argument with MMORPGs - why ruin them with a single player mode? It'd be a completely new and *different* game). As for suggestions... Invent a way for a 56k6 modem to download at T1 speeds. ***Please!!!*** ;) Damian ~SDC~

Reply to Download Manager of SDC: Not sure it is working right in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Think I've partially figured out the answer. Answer being, check download log, delete last file that was downloading, let it all go again. Reason I think this is I got up at 3am NZT to check download progress and it said 'file foo is incorrect size, check log?' BTW, when this happened it didn't continue with any other files or attempt to redownload that particular file. Oh well. *sigh* The things we go through for a decent game :) Damian ~SDC~

Also you may wish to have right-clicked on the GalCiv program and then clicked on 'save to archive' or whatever that option is, instead of going for the default 'install'. Also, do you have .99b of SDC? ~SDC~

Download Manager of SDC: Not sure it is working right in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Was 30MB into download and home alarm system cut the line (I'm on 56k6). Set SDC to download and archive again, and it seems to have started from scratch again. SDC version is 0.99b.141 Any suggestion about how to get it to resume in the future? I'm off to bed now, so won't be picking up answers for about 8 hours. Later all. Damian ~SDC~
