The OP is right about one thing the poor documentation and no one can say the contrary.That there isn't any civilopedia or similar is OK but that the game mechanics, abilities or concepts are not clear is a mistake of devs that they should manage.Personally i have learnt this game 30% playing 60% on the forums and 10% on the wiki and this is not good.A lot of changes made to balance the game weren't supported by changes in typos and documentation in ga

Posted by draginol: Claim: "The AI trades with each other too much." This is another one of those "I'm losing so the game must be cheating" type things. In 1.0 to 1.0X the AI literally does a ulPlayerIDToTradeWith = rand()%(ulNumberOfActivePlayers);. IF it's the human player, it pops up a dialog and offers to trade X for Y. ELSE it just simulates the same thing with the other player deciding whether they want to make the trade or not. In

The further your freighter is from the start, the more money you collect. If a freighter is destroyed then it needs to start over at the beginning of the trade route. I believed that freighter movement on the trade route was only eye candy because i receive money every turn, i assumed that their posi

Ok it's not very clear, when my freighters are destroyed but my trade route is maintained i continue to perceive money? If i continue to perceive money what affects destroying freighters?If all my freighters in the trade route are destroyed but the latter is not cancelled automatically will be created new freighters or what?When a trade route is cancelled you can no more build a trade route from homeplanet to alien planet?

I have recently finished a game in which i won a diplomatic victory after a head to head with torians.After taking a lot of their planets i noticed that Torians AI manage their planets like a dumbass.There were stock markets on research bonus tiles, manufacturing capital on a planet with a PQ of 5, some really good planets were nearly unused, some bonus tiles weren't used while other normal tiles were used. I'm playing at intelligent level 1.1 bet

Thank you Peace Phoenix you are always a resource of useful informations . One last question about resource starbases coverage area.

I have 3 questions that i noticed playing with 1.1 beta 2a about starbases -I have seen an enemy influence starbase moving; i believed that starbases were fixed.So can starbases move or not?? -After destroying starbases resources are not shown.Bug or feature? -I have seen starbases in space tiles that there wasn't nothing before so i assume that they were moved in this space tile So are starbases mobile and is it normal that i

I'm one of the people that hate so much the tech trading in this game, and now i'm very happy about no tech trading option(but diplomacy is broken).In my opinion the problem of tech trading in this game is due to some factors: -tech tree is so large that you have always a technology that other races don't have, so you can always trade a more valuable tech for a lesser one to continue the cycle of tech trading every turn.Personally with recent patc

About minor races i would ask only that everyone get their own portrait and they could colonize their star system.It's not too much but implementing these addons and changes in the game would be really good: -with only 1 planet on large maps minors totally sucks -having 25 minor races but only 3-4 portraits is really sucking and unimmersive.I have played a gigantic map with only one major race to see all minor races and <img src="http://im

I don't know if it's dumb but i noticed that enemy starbases moved of 2-3 tiles precisely it was an influence starbase.I knew that starbases are fixed so it's me that is wrong or starbases can really move?If starbases are mobile how can i move them???

i'm playing with 1.1 beta 2 and i noticed that after i destroy enemy starbases resources are not shown.I think that there is a bug showing resources on my computer because often i don't see any resource and after i see enemy starbases where before there was an empty tile. I have the debug.err but i can't open it because i don't know what program to use. Considering that i have continued my game for a lot of turns after i noticed this bug; the debu

I think that would be very useful if in the next patch or very soon costs of tech and improvements would be exposed.Having all costs exposed would be really helpful to plan your strategy in the game instead of going always to desktop to consult galactopedia; it wouldn't be also hard to implement in the game.

I have today installed the 1.1 BETA and i tried varous races to understand how population growth is changed. Playing as humans with earth at 5 billion pop. i noticed that pop. growth per turn was 50 million, as thalan with homeworld at 5 bil. pop. growth was 60 million and as torian 80 million per turn. With a new colonized planet with 0,10 billion pop was needed some turns before pop increased to 0,11 with terrans fewer turns were needed as
