strange? moves allowed changed on me in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

i have version 1.05.071, and some weird things are happening -but no crashes :) my deathstar's moves say "8/1", instead of the the "1/1", and the weird thing is that its a "8/1" instead of "1/8"! well anyways, i got a deathstar that actually can move 8 spaces! i cant really complain. i only have one deathstar in that game right now, i will try building another after work today to see if it also gets the same 8 moves. (by the way, the deathstar isnt in a fleet or anything).

.event files question in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

i wanted to see the programming behind the .event files, so i downloaded one from the library and opened one with notepad in a separate directory from the galciv directory. but now all the .event files show up as a notepad file instead of the "unknown file" type. will this effect the game when it tries to load an event? and if so, how do i assign .event files from being a notepad file back to the "unknown" file?

whats with the "stardock certified" thingy beside the "dangerous animals" event? i cant find any other mod in the library with the same certification. are they going to make it that the only mods allowed for metaverse submissions have to be "Stardock Certified"?

Reply to So, was Space Empires IV any good? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

i downloaded SE4 demo a while back, but i didnt get into it for some reason, even though i loved SE3. the only thing i didnt like about SE3 was the fact that it was nearly impossible to keep good relations with the AI. i dont know why or what but the SE4 demo just didnt appeal to me, even though i spent many "all nighters" with SE3.

Reply to is this game REALLY hard or is it just me? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

also, what size maps are you tryin? dont pick the tiny until after you get the hang of the game, maybe try medium. the tiny maps are not all that forgiving due to the fact you wont have too many planets. medium would be good, big enough to make room for mistakes, and not big enough to make it hard to keep track of everything.

Question about AI not asking me to make peace with someone else in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

happened to me too. i alterians where getting there asses kicked by the drengin bad, they were down to just 2 planets on the other side of the galaxy from me. i wanted the alterians to stay in the game so that way the drengins would be preoccupied with the alterians instead of me. i gave the alterians all my techs for nothing, and i also gave them a lowely level 15 planet thats deep in my territory to give them an economic boost -next turn the planet turns out to be owned by the pre

Reply to A request for more medals in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

the average age on here is 32?! really? thats interesting. im 24 right now, i wasnt expecting that! im finding it very difficult to get some good game time in this game while working full time, so i was kinda thinking that the players on here with huge scores would be more younger people who dont work full time yet.

just wondering, what is the differences between moo3 and galciv? i never played any of the moo games before, and im wondering how they differ. reading the reviews of moo3 hasnt helped me, all i got from those was a lot of flak about the micromanagement, but nothing of what exactly the gameplay is like.
