[quote]Also it would be nice with an automatic "add to starbase feature" for which one could specify if the rallypoint should add cultural/military or economic modules to starbases. It is a lot of unnecessary work creating culture bombs or mining resources. The game should be able to take the best pic.

Reply to Systems Defecting in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

As far as recall there are 3 things that will make your planets defect: 1) Low morale (i think its planet with moral less than 32). Planets can defect to the I-League, unless the I-league has already been killed earlier in the game 2) Culture flipping. If the AI influence in a sector is more than 200 points higher than yours, there is a risk your planet will flip 3) Fundamentalist. If you have an evil Alignment (this can be seen on your domestic screen by clicking on societ

A little more in regards to Altarian Prophecy - editor: There are 3 new "modules": map editor, scenario editor and campaign editor. The Map editor will let you create maps from scratch -I can't find the possibility to make player starting positions (stars) The scenario editor will let you: Make teams Decide universe wide settings such as level of moral, influence, pop growth, research rate, starbase limits etc. Decide which "rules" should be

My first sightings Map Editor: I can't see the "borders" of the universe. Seems i can zoom out infinitly.

Sirian - i hate to say this but....i've come to the point where i almost agree with you on all accounts [quote]I'd say you didn't quite understand what was going on in that game[/quote] I did see why this was so significant in this type of game (one planet), but i still think it's a possible exploit. Bottom line...i was hoping for an easy way to achive those goals, but i can see your points (i haven't given up on the idea tough - just need more time at the drawing boar

JaxomCA - i think we pretty much agree. As i said the best would - no doubt - be to make the AI react better to human moves (eventhough i think it is hard to do) LDiCesare, My point about lowering the part of the bonus, that is free production, is based on my own playing style. I grab 2-3 tech ressources and mine them, this makes it pretty easy to out-tech the AI. I'm not suggestion lowering the free part to nothing just maybee 50% instead of 66%. In regards to influen

Sirian, I agree with you that i would be a good idea to [quote]change "AI Tech Victory" to a LOSING condition[/quote] I also agree that the best thing would be to make the AI able to respond better to Human behavior, but my point was to try and come up with a simple solution to what i see limiting my own gameplay (score-wise) Regarding tech victory - you say you disagree, but i don't quite under stand why you think this change would be bad. I wanted to make it har

Reply to upgrading versions in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Just to be perfectly sure... After clicking the update button the download should start and when it is done it should say something like "install complete". From Stardock central you should be able to see which version is installed (in the second column "installed"). What version does it say when look there ?

Reply to Morale Tips in Strategies Stardock Forums

If you have enough cash and it is only some or planets taking a moral dive: On your planet screen, click details, on the bottom of that screen should be a slider which lets you spend money to boost morale on that planet, but its an expensive way to do it. I only use it if that planets has fallen a bit behind on improvements and "it needs help" to catch up.

I know we have just gotten 1.13 and should be playing our asses of, but still...i have been thinking about this for a while and can't keep it back any longer. I would like to be able to go for cultural and tech victory without it hurting my score. Apart from wanting the nerfing of scores for these 2 victory conditions removed i would also like a change in gameplay to make it harder to achive these 2 victory conditions.

It is aslo a good idea to try and get tech boosting improvement, tech's and ressources. Only 1/3 of those tech boost/improvements counts as expenses, the other 2/3's are for free. This can be seen when you look at your planet screen. Your spending for the planet will be displayed like this: Military(x+y) Social(x+y) Research (x+y) All the y's doesn't isn't added to your expenses, but you still benefit from them.
