If you press printscreen it captures the screenshot into memory (this is a windows feature, you can use it in any program). If you do nothing else, it'll be lost whenever you copy to the clipboard next. In order to save your screenshot you need to open a graphics program such as windows paint, and select the paste option then save the resulting image. |
Thanks - I found that out a couple of hours ago.... still a few hours late for that picture!! I'd rebooted since!!
I had this, too, but I just assumed that the 3 parsec rule only applies to starbases of one race. |
Seems strange to me if that's the case. I can see what you are saying though, you could use them as walls otherwise! It's also not really how it reads in game, but I think you've hit it there.... unless it is a bug!
by the by, that was in the campaign. second mission, as I recall. |
I had it mostly on the second and third missions. The second was the cheekiest by far with the Altarians dropping their first constructor basically on my doorstep.... AND it was an influence base. Really not in the spirit of an alliance if you ask me!
