Galactic Civilizations II 1.1 next week

Galactic Civilizations II 1.1 next week

One more beta this week

We're still doing QA on Galactic Civilizations II 1.1.  We've been working on a wide variety of things such as increasing performance on lower end systems, improving the computer AI, adding more alien dialog, fixing bugs, and the other usual stuff.

We will be putting up a new beta this week. Then next week we'll officially release 1.1.

Lack of keyboard shortcuts is becoming a real pain. Some items like the ship construction screen would benefit greatly with the use of keyboard shorts. Example: Rotating the ship up, down, left, right would be much faster and easier by using the arrow keys. This could be done while manipulating the part with the mouse in order to place a new part. Also rotating the part (the three dials in the lower right) could be done much faster with keystrokes.

In context, moving around the main map could be a bit easier by doing the same thing. Point and click is slow and tedious and for me will kill the playability of the game from the endless requirement for mouse work.

Looks like I will wait for the general release of 1.1 then.

Pity as the changelogs you have been putting up make want to install the Beta now.

Thanks for all the hard work putting these together!

Any idea if they've made it easier to select and get details of individual ships and starbases in fleets... at the moment performing certain actions seems trickier than it needs to be... what about a R click to bring up ship details and individual options for example... any idea if this has been improved in 1.1 patch?
