The dropdown boxes when creating a game (galaxy size, game type) don't close if you click other buttons, or even when moving to other menus. For instance, if you open the dropdown for gametype, and then go back to the main menu, when you return to the galaxy setup screen the dropdown will still be open. Very minor, but an oddity. Perhaps by design?
I was curious if the final build will have a loading screen for the main menu? It's obviously not game-critical, and I'm used to it now, but I can imagine someone new wondering why they can see some buttons but not others for a little bit. No obvious reason to it from the user's POV. Anyway, here's hoping your crunch isn't too murderous.
Actually, not just save games, but the entire GalCiv2 folder in My Documents... I always hate it when anything uses that folder. If windows allowed it, I would turn it off. I have my Windows installation on a very size-limited partition, and when anything starts stuffing things into it, I run out of space there quickly. I don't mind if it's the default, as I imagine the majority of users don't care, but it's always been a peeve of mine wh
If you put your mouse cursor over the approval rating it will pop up with what is causing it. It tells us what is causing it, but those things vary to such a degree as to make that information feel almost useless. For instance: in my last game, on my home planet, with 10.72 b, and a tax rate of 68%, I had -158 from taxes. The next turn, I had
The sticky for "All beta testers read this!" states that we shouldn't post new bugs in someone else's post. Yet we're compiling these massive bug lists (4D list initiated by Icewyng is already at 41 posts). Are these massive lists prefered by Stardock? If so, shouldn't the sticky reflect that?
Is it possible to set it up so that my arrow keys will move the camera around the map? Or make it so I can scroll faster - I saw the slider for mouse scroll speed, but I want it faster still. Diagonally? Most important to me is mouse scrolling though.
Sound is garbled and scratchy. Nothing recognizable. Might I have a missing or corrupt file? It fades back to music as soon as I leave that window, and becomes messed up whenever I enter.
