Litcube, I found that baffling when I reported it in back in the beta days... It's a carry over from the GC1 version of the building, I believe... or atleast an old beta version...
Also, many people who use the Catalyst drivers had to properly re-install the drivers to avoid any issues with the game. Uninstall Catalyst, reboot, Install latest version of Catalyst, reboot. Mayhaps that will help you here....
I removed your "comment", Dan Greene. Continue to behave in that manner and I will have to involve people more powerful than myself. Please dont make me do that!
I am working on creating such a site, starlost. Stay tuned.
Indeed, I think from now on Im going to start deleting these kinds of threads, or moving it to the OFF TOPIC forum. You want something fixed, spell it out.
I think one thing we all tend to forget when applying "constructive criticism" of this game that we love so much is that alot of features are the way they are because of the "fun factor". The developers have done a pretty stand out job at turning a spreadsheet game into a *fun* game that appeals to a pretty wide audience... In order to accomplish that some people are going to be turned off to how "simple" the game may appear on certain fronts.
Holy crap, I had just noticed that it opened a new window (which appeared behind the main browser so I never even noticed..) Usually I get these sort of things trapped in a new tab... My apologies.
GC2 website "theme" integration issues (i.e, missing CSS) https://www.galciv2.com/MyAccount.aspx?p=3 AND https://www.galciv2.com/MyAccount.aspx?p=4 Also, that last one does absolutely nothing for me, except assure me that me eyes can indeed be pained by colors. (no errors, but clicking the button results in no action)
Hey, T-Man! I alerted Dark-Star to an annoying glitch with Firefox and displaying the "Average Difficulty" medal... see screenshot here: http://www.mavx.net/temp.jpg BTW, to anybody following closely with the Mods & Metaverse conversation, here's a direct quote from Cari... [11:21] Absolutely, positively, no mods? [11:21] <
Okay, okay, I removed the offending comment from the original post, and all subsequent replies about it. (EDIT: Okay I thought I did, but I cant seem to edit the post... anyway.. just ignore it for now! ) Please refrain from making derogatory comments about people, whether you intend to offend people or not. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Smile.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmidd
I'm about getting tired of hearing about how the game shouldnt get new features for fear of writing AI subroutines. Sooner or later those damn dogs will have to learn some new tricks!
How about mimic the Ship Upgrade timer function? Say there are a handful of modules required to get a fully functional Terror Star (each, of course, with their own requirements to build, costs to create, etc)... when applied to a (military) starbase, they have a base "construction duration", rand(1,5) weeks...the further you are away from your empire the higher the duration goes... As soon as you start constructing this beastly weapon, everybody gets a GNN popup... "Somew

Whenever you copy something, you save it into your systems "clipboard", which is just an imaginary place somewhere deep inside Windows. If you were to highlight some text here, right click, and choose to "copy" it, that is also saved into the clipboard, then you can either right click on the text field and "paste" it, or.... you can use Ctrl+C to copy and Ctrl+V to paste... So, when you hit the print screen key what you are doing is "copying" a replica of what is on your sc

They've planned all along to release a map editing tool... but all focus is on making the game stable across the board and adding features to it. They have an extremely finite amount of resources (development time) to spend working on the game, so it's hard to justify spending time on a map editing tool when there are some pretty nasty bugs cropping up on weird hardware setups/configurations... you know? Have patience... it will come even
I dont remember you. But... I wasnt big on the forums back then either...so... Welcome back?
How in the hell did Stardock Central destroy your desktop? That seems absurd. At anyrate, SDC has evolved *quite a bit* since then. You really should try it out.
Economic starbases most definitely only apply their bonuses to ships (trade) / planets (production inside their circle of influence.... (mind you these are NOT the economic *resources*, as all resources are global)
Also... it's a game. In the interest of keeping this a *FUN* game all planets will have the same birth rates. It might not make for a bad addition in the future for the different races to have different birth rates...but that is not something to be casually thrown into the game... forgetting the code it might take to implement such a feature, there is a tremendous amount of play testing and balancing necessary. Think of all the things popula
Indeed, starbases are a reactive force. Consider them the light side... they are for Defense and Knowledge ONLY.
You get the tech, but you still have to research the pre-requisites if you wish to advance beyond the tech that you just traded for.
