I am still experiencing text run-offs. When I checked out the history for shields, the text ran down below the box and I could not scroll. Is this just my computer, do I not realize there is a simple solution, or is this still a problem? (I thought it had been fixed with 1.02...) Thanks for any thoughts!

Someone wrote their monitor was too dark and wanted gamma correction. I used to have this problem with other games, and I discovered that you can usually adjust Gamma through your software: Screen Properties (Right click on your desktop) - Settings - Adv Properties and the next differs from card to card. Under the Matroxx, you could click Colors, and then another menu and you could manually adjust your gamma. Under Nvidia GeForce 4, there are about 4-5 more steps. If you a

Clearer Fog of War I could just be confused, but when I scan the large tactical map - the main one in the center, it is difficult to tell if it is in scanner range or not. Thus, if there are empty buffer sectors, and I have a scount nearby to watch for incoming ships, I can't tell clearly how far their range extends.

I think the AI does cheat at the top 2 levels, but I am not sure if it cheats at bright. With 100% military spending I was able to crank out colony ships every few turns in a small galaxy with no bonus to production. The rest of their wealth I cannot explain...

I have a lot of trouble seeing whether an area is fogged or visible. For example, they both look black to me, and I dk if it is empty space or just FOW filled with stuff I can't see exactly. I am sure I am missing something obvious but can someone tell me what? Cross example: In Civ 3, an area under FOW is darker than one you can currently see - brightly lit. Thanks!

I think I created an account for stardock.net (and stardock.com) looked for the SOFTWARE TAB but could never find it. Somehow I got to Drengin Games but when I clicked on Galactic Civilizations, it just brought me back here. What am I doing wrong? I would like to find the patch 1.01A and also any multimedia updates... Thanks (totally confused) :notsure:

Stackable transport attacks. If 2 or more transports attack a world they can attack cumulatively (admitedly, you can claim poor timing of wave attacks - a common problem in WWI & WWII and other places...)
