1.2 questions to you beta users

from GalCiv2 Forums
Is the game faster on the large maps with the 1.2 beta?

Is there a focus option or better yet, is there a way to focus sometimes and not others?

what do you mean focus? do you mean the planet focus on research/social/military? thats been there since before 1.2, or do you mean a way to focus on performance sometimes? could you explain what you mean by focus?

By focus, I mean does the game map focus to the ship instead of staying where you have it? They were going to put an option in to not focus on a ship/fleet.

Also, you didn't answer if the game is noticeably faster on big maps.

Thanks for any input.

It does seem faster, and yes the focus is now an option that can be changed during gameplay.

You should download and try it. You can always revert back to the older version if you don't like it.

well I noticed a noticably lesser memory usage on gigantic maps
but I did not notice any change in speed

for focus I suggest you read the changelogs
