Reply to Galactic Civilization III: v2.3 Released 6/19 in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

@admiralWillyWilber the colony ship penalty could be resolved by giving Xenophobic a -20% to Admins (citizens only give 4, techs only give 3.2), with a lesser penalty to ship construction. This wouldn't target colonies directly, but would certainly make colonizing more difficult. to be sure, I'm not certain I like this, but it would be a way to mod for extra colony cost, with allowances for warships, and seems to fit for Xenos

Reply to Pick 2: Polish, low price, sophisticated gameplay in GalCiv III Dev Journals GalCiv3 Forums

rewriting code with a new architecture (no pointers? ugh!) sounds very frustrating and difficult. personally, I'd pay a little bit more for some polish, with gameplay being at the top. But how much more $$ for how much more polish is a tough question. One of the reasons I enjoy this game, is having to deal with those sorts of balancing acts in a fictional universe (and ignoring my real-life dilemmas). the AI work on this game has improved so much since

Reply to Asteriod mining in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

Asteroid mining is a civilian activity. You can force them to redirect for a while, but it is cheaper and easier for them to just ship to the nearest planet. Talk to the union rep.

Reply to [Mod] Crusade Anomalies in GalCiv III Modding GalCiv3 Forums

also, I've noticed that the pods don't give whole amounts. I love seeing 0.3 of a resource in my inventory, from anomalies. I also really appreciate the color coding. Nice job on this mod (and also the resource missions one)

Reply to [Mod] Crusade Anomalies in GalCiv III Modding GalCiv3 Forums

Will check out update. I've liked this so far, but I've had one bug.. sometimes I'll get a defended anomaly, and will get the "fight" screen, but there is never a fight, it just closes out. I believe it is always a Capsule-lightly defended which does this. It stays on the screen forever.

Reply to Social Construction in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

Not sure if anyone else already mentioned this, but here goes All Construction adjacencies will give a bonus to every Manufacturing type (All, Social, Ship). All Construction buildings will only gain a bonus from All. The exception is the Slave Pit (and upgrades) which claims to be All Construction, but actually gains from Social and Research as well. I think that's just a bug in the tooltip text.

Reply to Cities... in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

[quote who="Moser_Alchemist" reply="10" id="3679908"] Unfortunately, for those of us who like to play synthetic, it seems like just another advantage for "flesh bags".

Reply to Wanted: A better way to depict remaining moves for ships in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

Agreement here. Movement counters and the stupid auto-upgrade thing are my biggest annoyances with both standard GC3 and Crusade (especially now that upgrades cost valuable resources). I don't know how many times I've forgotten to unclick auto-upgrade, until I realize that I'm spending Durantum faster than I can produce it. I'm sure the devs have a lot on their plate, but those things have been requested since the beginning, and would make play SO much easier.

Reply to Do more with planetary tiles in GalCiv III Future Ideas GalCiv3 Forums

Rather than a tile improvement, I wouldn't mind seeing a planetary project to aid ship manufacturing (similar to Aid Research). Perhaps dismantling a ship in a planet's orbit could be used for "swords to plowshares" as a one-time boost to Social (at some percentage of the ship's cost). Naturally, both of these would require a tech.

Reply to Citizens appearance should be more randomised and names... in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I like the 1 citizen every 10 turns the way it is. Citizens are a resource, and the player decision as to how and where to place them adds a lot to the game. Basing their frequency on population, in my opinion, ruins the Tall vs Wide leveling. Not to mention that there are techs which unlock specific citizen types (e.g., spies, legions*), as planetary projects, right now. *legions are technically not a citizen, but being able to build them means that I do not HAVE

Reply to GalCiv3Crusade - Ideology in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

there have been issues with ideology on colonizing planets lately, they do not always do so nowadays. Used to be, all planets provided ideology upon colonizing (unless in your home system). Events will certainly give you points.

Reply to GalCiv3Crusade - Ideology in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

it would certainly help if the tool-tips were somewhat accurate. Trial and error is fun, but I cannot take a game seriously until I've played a few "practice games" for each ideology path.
