The 'Maso' Bug? J/K . . . ;) I find the 'Neutral' Icon very relaxing to look at, so serene, so peaceful, so sleepy . . . Zzzz Zzz Zz z z hu! Edit - It lookes remarkably just like one of my best friends from primary school, her name was Egdwina. I wonder what Edgwina is doing now? Well if your out there Ewgdina and perhaps reading this I just wanted to say, sorry for throwing your 'frizzbie' on your neighbours roof. We both knew I did it on purpose but I said I didn't. Anyway

Did that work (re quotage)? It's a riot! I never knew that about the set-up portraits screen . . . so you can go head to head with an alien of your choice! That's Excellent! I'd guess there's a penalty droping the degree of difficulty doing this . . . ?

I'll try and encourage him to do a little more reading tonight. Yes, yes a starting point . . . thats a good place to beguin! I didn't mean that to sound . . . um . . . well the way it sounded, kinda like I'm completely stupid . . . Moving right along um . . . in his sketches the Torians kinda look a bit 'Dr Seuzie' if you know what I mean (build wise) with little pregnant looking tummies, and the Yor look ridiculously robotic kinda like a computer thats just gotten up in the morning

Defenders as you can see where never really ment to lap up anything defence-wise too far beyond corvettes. As crazy as it sounds combat transports with the Galactic Councils defensive phasers bonus blessing are of great defensive capability (providing you have the tech to build them drednougth tech I think, not sure). Also +50% hit points is a prety big bonus (provided your goverment holds the senate) . . . Sometimes if you see a ship approaching your system you may be better off break

Well why not . . . Here's an email address for my hubbie Paul.

Kit I was hoping you'd see this! After your back in the black workwise I'd luv to get a script idea or two from you or any of your dark humoured GROSS bretheren.

Actually thats an interesting point regarding attacking . . . I always assumed if you clicked on a ship your attacker would track them. Noticed the other day that it ain't necessarily so . . . by the time my ship got to the place where the ship was I clicked on it was long gone. Mabye thats just a default setting thing I need to switch off though, I recall seeing something about it but forget . . .

Odi Wan, have you ever played golf on the internet like TW2003 and the like? Thats pretty popular and its essencially turn based. All you need is a clock and time-out options. Come to think of it Golf in reality is essencially turn based too . . . mabye my analergy is to close?

Thanks Obi Wan and PontiusBruinPilot! Saya anyone interested instarting a GC comic strip? My hubbie drew some pictures (hes a graphic designer . . . whatever that means) . . . might be fun? Just need a short script for the bubbles and a place to host it. :)

Reply to Thoughts on Multiplayer from the developers... in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

If you could do that!It would attract a whole new (and I believe very large) strata in the gaming community. While I'm absorbed in GC at the moment I miss multiplayer, there's just no substitute for interactive gaming. I know the long term goal of GC is to be able to emmulate any players style on the Metaverse and maybe some time off in the future that could be possible. But what you suggest seems quite viable and would be so warmly accepeted . . . What I wouldn't give to cha

Not really cheese but a useful hint for reducing lag on large maps (or slow computers)! When something rather graphics/sound intensive is going on (i.e. about 400 ships suddenly beguin to mobilize after the breakdown of an alliance or mabye 100 stacked corvettes decide its time to kamakasi themselves all over your most wisely upgraded Star Base . . . etc) You can just throw up a screen like the research page while each turn passes . . .

I sent out a fleet of Terror Stars for the first time ever! I cover the map with another screen to hasten the time it took for each to arrive at thier target planet (no graphics~no drag). This actually worked! Once I turned off pop-ups and the info splash stuff I could click rapidly watching my little bon-bons cruise around the map like corvettes! Well almost . . .

Ray in all honesty it's true! I installed GC on Paul's computer after he put a fresh re-install of Windows 2000 on it last night and kept getting CTD at random.
