Cant make terror star with V96

Has anyone else managed to make a terror star with the latest build (including the ship component availability patch)


I don't seem to be able - no option avaialble.  I am playing a custom race with a altaian tech tree if that makes a difference.

I thought I read somewhere here that thet removed Terror Stars for .96, but I'm not positive.

What?

They removed terror stars from Iconians in the campaign so you would have to research the tech rather than bypass research and trade for it.

Terror stars are still in the game. 1.96 doesn't even mention them in the patch notes.

Okay, so to run down the list:

* You researched terror stars

* You sent constructors to build a terror star

* The option to build one was not available

Are these things true? If so, is there a UP resolution in effect to ban terror stars?

DAMN! - That was it!


Thanks Phaedyme.


Damn Damn Damn - Now I feel stupid. Damn!


Actually it might be nice if it had a disabled button that said why you couldn't build the thing. All the same, I am thick.

It's easy to forget UP resolutions. I'm hypersensitive to that particular resolution because it derailed one of my GalCiv 1 games. :(

Moose, you can leave the UP. If you choose to, their resolutions should no longer be binding and you *should* be able to build your terror stars again. The drawback is you can no longer trade with the other races, but that is a fair trade-off since trade has been nerfed.

Give it a shot and let us know if it works.

1.95 or 1.96 un-nerfed trade. At least it fixed it so that trade routes now earn more the farther away they are, the way it originally worked.
