Reply to job completion - aggregated management in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

i like the drop down icons, but agree constantly having to click on them is a micromanagement prob, specialy when the build queue is still ongoing. i suppose on large maps the icons will soon "overstack", in which case, maybe only a planet build notification drop down icon when the build queue is finished? i assume there will be some governors incorporated at some stage, so don't know how that might affect things.........

in restrospect, i think point 4 and point 6 are linked ie the transport didn't 'die' when the invasion failed. 9. when taking an ai planet, the planet sometimes produces an ai generated ship after a few turns, despite having no starport!

Reply to method for ship refit in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

i'm into strategic ship design, but am not personally into the bling element as I'm easily pleased by basic designs - tend to use the base generic hulls and just fill 'em with goodies.

welcome aboard crusher! you'll find it's a great community here, although perhaps a little quiet with everyone testing the GC2 beta. make sure you check out the empires thread left. as for spelling mistakes, i'm not sure. they do intend to keep updating GC1, but parhaps with all the work on GC2 they might not get round to it at the moment....still can't hurt to email them through... :)

Reply to Metaverse not working now that GC2 is on the way? in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

the gc1 metaverse is still going (although a little slow and problematic - i believe it's in the process of being moved over to a new server). i submit the score with no firewall (i have mcafee too) as i have found that this is the only way it gets through. there may be other issues with your player id, player nick, email etc. try submitting with no firewall, and if that fails perhaps post a note on the gc1 forum and someone smarter than me will work our if your play
