Bug: Computer knows where everything is even if he didn't explore first. You can easy test that with the autosurvey funktion with your ship. Don't explore just klick "a" for autosurvey. Your ship will find all anomalies but you haven't even explored one piece of the universe yet. AI knows where all planets are etc. Thats anoying. I have to purchase 5+ colony ships in the beginning all the time and fly them blind into unknown space to have a chance to get some new colonies. If I would wait till I've explored those areas first and then build a colony ship then you can be sure that the AI will have those planets already. As I said AI knows where everything is and that needs a change. You can easy test that when you just start a new game and press "a" (autosurvey) on your fleetship. The ship flies to every anomaly as if you would already know where it is.

I believe this is as designed for the autosurvey and was changed to do this late in gamma. Do a search on this as it has been brought up quite a few times.

Occasionally the Drengin will refer to themselves as the [TheirShortName] in diplomatic discussions.
When declaring war on you the Humans boast their giving away Hyperdrive "Technologu"

I initially posted this in tweaks, but think it may actually be a bug: Fleets of ships do not show up on the diplomacy screen when trading with other races, only individual ships. If the fleet is disbanded the individual ships appear again, but there is currently no way to trade fleets. Also, there is only a black screen when clicking to check where in the galaxy a ship is located during diplomacy, rather than the minimap which popped up in GalCiv1 (and looks like it should here too).

- Planet class resetting on load.

Build a soil enhancement on a planet and the planet class increases by one. But after saving and reloading the game the planet class is reset back to the initial value.

The PQ resetting to base value on reload is the second most annoying glitch I have encountered and would like to see fixed.

A couple of easy ones that will just be xml edits probably (but I guess doing them myself would invalidate metaverse games):
VR Centers only give +40% Morale, whereas Zero-G Stadiums give +55%
Advanced Farms only give +8Mt Food, the same as their predecessors.

Not had a chance to confirm if the next one still exists in v1.0x (as don't like having to reload due to PQ reset), but building the No Mercy Invasion Center caused reproduceable immediate CTD whenever an invasion was attempted after it was built. Simple answer is not to build it of course, but if one of the other evil races built it would the same happen if they invaded one of my planets? Also if the planet it was built on culture flipped to me, would the error re-occur? If so, it is a potential game-breaker!

AI behaviour - they're still building cr@p on resource bonus tiles (had a farm on a +700% manufacturing bonus tile on one planet last night, with 4 factories built elsewhere)

Finally a couple of things to reduce micromanagement that would be nice to see implemented:

The ability to fleet up more constructors, to save having to wait for 14 (when building an influence starbase) to move individually when you give the stack their initial movement orders. Setting the logistics value to 1 for constructors would achieve this. Is this possible? Obviously this could allow for a potential exploit by fitting a huge hull with a constructor module and then adding weapons, so I guess there would need to be a check that all weapon values were zero in there aswell - still, it would make life easier.

And on to the most annoying thing in the game... please make the Esc key always replicate the action of clicking on the "Done" button. It does for some screens (e.g. GNN News, Tech screen etc), but when you hit Esc with the planet window open, or the relations screen, or the economic screen you just get the options menu. Most frustrating!

Got to be a great game if it's a minor UI glitch that annoys me the most.

Don't know for sure if 1.0X caused this, but it never happened before I got the patch. Whenever the Terrans conquer a minor race, the entire map is flooded with Terran influence. It happened to me twice so far. Didn't notice if it was the same minor race both times. Every planet ends up with a >900 Terran influence ratio. Needless to say, it is kind of a game stopper.

and please add some way to check how many routes we have left.

Try going into the economics screen (F4) and selecting the trade tab....

If you have a survery ship set to auto-survey, and then upgrade it to another ship which does NOT have a survey module, you will sometimes get an always-repeating popup about how this ship can not explore anomalies (by always repeating I mean that as soon as you dismiss the dialog it reappears). It is possible this only happens if your ship would explore an anomalie on the same turn that it comes out of upgrading.

1.01X.0009

Invasion bug, getting trillions and quadrillions of inhabitants after invasion. Resulting in cultural territory consuming the entire map.

Planet quality grows after loading save game, once improvements i.e. soil enhancement are made, and a game is reloaded, planet quality has grown, SIGNIFICANTLY. all my planets are 20+ now.

Cultural territory shrinks, then re-grows after loading a saved game.

Random Crashes to Desktop.



I've noticed far more bugs in this build than the previous.

1) Espionage doesn't go away

2) Unless I'm very much mistaken, dropping your espionage spending to zero doesn't remove your espionage ability. As soon as you hit a level of espionage, drop the spending to zero and come back say 52 weeks later. Your level of espionage is unchanged, and the stuff in the report tab appears to be up-to-date (In that it's different than it was before, so the assumption is that it's current info). This seems wrong. Dropping your spending should drop your espionage level.

I'm playing the game on Simple setting (still learning the game) and after I had a Defender ship blow away the Andinians' three scout ships it had orbiting Andinian IV

I asked the Andinian's to give me Andinian IV as tribute, and they agreed to give it to me. Great. Only when I go back to galaxy mode, it shows the planet still under the Andinians' possesion, and when I go back into diplomacy mode, it shows the planet under their possesion still as well.

It did the same thing in another game when I attacked the Paulos on Paulos I with a ship and took out all the planet's ships in orbit. I went to diplomacy mode, asked them to hand over the planet, they agreed, and I clicked send. But it still showed them as controlling the planet in the galaxy mode and the diplomacy mode, even after they agreed to give it to me as tribute.

Running 1.X.10...

1. Loading the game up with a desktop of 1280x1024 yields a 1024x768 sized black window.

2. Hitting ESC in the tutorial window causes the game to hang.

- Nobody

The thinner tiny hull for terrans has a hardpoint with a wrong axis. It's in the "tail" section, and looking from the back, the left hardpoint axis should be pointing to 10/11 o'clock (as the right one points to 1/2 o'clock), but instead it's pointing to 9 o'clock. Here's a couple screenshots to make it clearer:
