This has been bugging me for a while now since I'm in the middle of a Star Trek marathon. In GalCiv we only have one engine type and that's it but in most if not all Sci Fi they use two in conjunction. Usually it ends up like this: You have Sub-light speed engine for normal travel (I.e.: Battles and Intra solar system travel and such). And you have Super-Light speed engine for inter-stellar travel which is usually de
Agreed but I'd rather like a web page that I can load with all the others when I drink my coffee (I LOVE the 'Open all in tabs' for the bookmarks in firefox.
I used to come over here everyday hoping to get a new Dev. Diary or some other Stardock nes but those are getting rarer and rarer. I don't really care about Demigod and I am intrigued by the unannouced Fantasy TBS but I would like to know if there's a central location that exist where SD news are posted and where's there's the Dev Diaries. Don't really care if it's for a game I don't care about. Hey it might convince me to do care. So... anyone?
That wall is in the teraoctects (ie 1000s of Gb ) for the 64bits OSs so no. What you hit is the "emulated" 32bits memory wall which still affect 64bits systems using 32bits apps. That why, with GC2 and any other 32bits apps, using a 64bit OS makes no differences (except lower performances of course).
No you didn't. Radiation is a general term. It encompass a lot of stuff like Thermal Radiation (Heat), X-Rays, Gamma Rays (Nuclear), Beta Rays and a lot of others. Radio and Radar use modulation of EM Radiations to do their jobs. See, there's Radiations and Radiations. Not all kinds are bad or even deadly. As for the topic of WW3, there's a distinct possibility of it occurring. As for the nuclear weapons, I believe they won't be used. Not at first a least. See, using N-Bombs me
Oi, sure then, I start a new game into window mode now then, will give you infos asap.
Also, if you look into the propriety page we see in the screen shot, you seem to be able to change pretty much anything from Quality to type to whether it has a moon or rings to its physical appearance.
I'd have to try it, but I don't think it will since the whole point of the alt-tabbing in this case is to free the resources used by GalCiv and them reload them.
AdeliadeBread is right. NATO does have a military tho. NATO has a certain number of military units that it can always call upon in time of need. The units belong to the members states still but respond only to NATO (thus making them 99% NATOs)
About borders, perhaps go another way and have Influence and political borders independent. Political borders would be enforced, but influential wouldn't. Also to had a "twist" you could claim an area of space that is inside your influential borders but outside your political (those are always claimed). Claiming another civ world would ofcourse make them hate you but could perhaps accelerate the revolt of said planet? Or perhaps even just be impossible (I.E.: Impossible to claim space in a peace
Very much probably only in GC3. Except if they decide to include a 3rd expansion with Hotseat which I very much doubt. Thing is, there is many things in the game that don't translate well to Multiplayer and thus, making the game mutliplayer would require even more work than just, you know, adding multiplayer.
I love your ideas. I have some more suggestions if you will. I love the mining base and planet claming thing but I think they should have differents rules when it comes to planetary invasion. Dunno if anyone of you played Europa Universalis 3, but in that game, if you have a colony (wherever), and a nation with which you are at war against send troops there the colony flip automatically (w/o the need for a peace treaty) if you win the combat there, if any, of course. T
What you are suggesting is Vassalization pure and simple.
there's no hotfix at least not a free one (need to contact support centers wich cost a LOT) oh well, I'll wait.
Where did you find that? To learn about the Arnor, go there and search for "The Mithrilar" w/o the quotes. What follow the titles is the story behind the Arnor. https://www.galciv2.com/Journals.aspx?AID=100828
My favorites were the cycle of foundation bay Azimov, and Starship Troopers. I loved many books written by Azimov but that series kind of stand out to me.
Also, I want to point out that Neutral alignement auto-terraform the planets up-to the tech you have in the terraforming branch. I.e.: You still need to research the techs for the effect to be full.
check your tax spending. 100% production means 944 or whatever your actual total but if you spend let's say 30% toward research then your total will be modified to that level after the other bonus. I agree that it should work like the production where the levels of each planets are calculated and thus valid on the colmanager but if you did that you would lose some research from rounding. so: 934 * research spending level = actual research. Using that calculation I'd
First one is a "Good" bug ie. an exploit.: When you use the colonies manager to buy stuff, the game don't look at your finance for the restriction thus allowing to buy beyond the 0bc threshold (I.e: you can still buy if you tresaury is negative). The second one is slightly pissing me off. The UP has passed a law that force everyone to operate under Democracy (Was a good idea at first). But the Thalans seem to be exempt because the society tab under report tab of the foreign rel
so the bussard ramjet wouldn't work here. Which is unfortunate, I thought the idea was awesome. there is only one thing wrong with this and that is they are using an ion engine on a space probe going to or at the astroid belt. Which is still in interstellar space. To get to Stellar Space, you would need to get past pluto at least. I.E.: Pretty much escape the gravity well of the sun.<b
if the race is selected as A.I., your selected bonuses are changed by the A.I. (To reflect the points allowed for according to difficulty levels). So it doesn't really matter, but if you wants to revert them to original, just delete the Customraces files in the Documents\My Games\GC2DarkAvatar folder. It will be called X.customracexml where X is the name given to the race.
Aye, one of the only reason I research trade early.
Hi, I found a work around! At least for vista. Now before you get your hopes to high, I can't prevent the error from happening, but at least, once it happens, with my "workaround", you can get back in and save/restart or simply continue playing more or less as if nothing happended (i.e.: No artefacts). Now when you get the error, in my case almost always when saving, you alt-tab or are pushed to the desktop with the game still running. Close the error message and the
That's not what he's asking. To upgrade mining base beyond the basic one, you need to research the Space Mining branch of the tech tree, it will unlock a new level for each techs.
I you could destroy a black hole so easily, I would be far too easy to destroy entire galaxies. I case you don't know, the black hole cluster at the center of each galaxies is what holds it together and make it spin on itself. Without black holes there would be no galaxies. I believe that black holes should be seen as impassable terrain with slowing effect that decrease proportionnaly with the distance from said black hole. (I.e -5 PC/week at core and -0pc/week 6 til
