Some improvement ideas in Twilight of the Arnor GalCiv2 Forums

Hi all, when I played my first two TA games, I noticed the following things which could be improved IMHO (some may be already posted elsewhere (constant dripping ... ;); and if some of the following things are already possible don't hesitate to tell my ignorant self ;)): - make it possible to launch a colonizer / transport with 1 pop by one click ("launch empty" button or something like that) - make it possible to switch through all spotted enemy ships (on larger maps I lose tra

Reply to Request for the next feature update. in Twilight of the Arnor GalCiv2 Forums

... so that "feature" should be fixed ;) It's a bit annoying to see your own self-constructed ships be inferior to the auto-designed ones ... Also I vote for the enhancement of the focus feature. I suggest you make it so that each focus area (the three kinds of weapons and defences, range, speed; for sensors I have no good idea) can be adjusted to 0-100% of the available space. Example: ship has 50 units of space. You have set your focus to 50% beam weapons, 20% beam defence, 20% sp

If all your own planets are in your starting system and you blow up its star, then you will have lost because you just wiped out yourself. Colonize one planet outside your home system before using the Terror Star on it.

Make PQ 0 planets more useful: - Introduce a planetary exploration module. Ships equipped with such a module can explore planets for things hidden beneath the surface and such - Things that can be discovered this way include: - - A cache of small artifacts that con be sold for money - - Some other artifact that helps research (current research if that is more easily, put preferably research in certain area dependent on the kind of artifact (weapon, space suit, antigrav belt,

Reply to Downloaded Version 1.80d - Still can't load old saved games. Should I bother to start another game? in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Hi, I also have the problem with a game that crashes immediately on load. It was a 1.8c game, I then updated to 1.8e and after that to 1.8f, but to no avail. I sent an a debug.err and the save game to [email protected] a week ago, but no answer so far. I would like to know whether the game is recoverable or not if that is possible. Thanks, lyssailcor

Reply to The Flawed GalCiv2 Economy in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

I don't consider "the flip" to really be an exploit ... I mean tearing down and rebuilding everything is definitely not the most efficient use of money and if you have that kind of revenue in the first place you're doing something special anyhow. Quite honestly the "all research/production" approach isn't an exploit either, it's just the result of the economic model the game is built on. That's why I put "exploit" in quotes <img src="http://image

To go back to Frogboy's question what should be changed about the morale buildings: let their influence increase over time (until a certain cap is reached that is way higher then the bonus a morale building gives now). I don't know whether that would be possible in a simple patch if the mechanics for such behaviour isn't there atm but I would like to see effects like that that need some advance planning. In fact, such a mechanism could also be implemented with money and influence buildings a

Reply to Metaverse Submission Problem in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Now I see that I have to click on my name in the forum to see my game history. There are two submitted games, but why does it say "Score 0" and "Metaverse Rank 0" then?

Ok., but then how do I find it in the metaverse? If I search for my player name (Lirgis), I cannot find an entry there ...

Metaverse Submission Problem in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Hi everybody, after a long while I played GalCiv again, and after another long while (gigantic galaxy) I even won! ;) But then I tried to submit the game to the metaverse. I seemed to work, but I couldn't find it there, even after I registered a player (and I made sure that the player name is exactly the same as the one under which I submitted the game). I then went back to the game to load the last save game and resubmit, but then something strange happened: I loaded the
