So what wa the key than?

You need to research different hull sizes before you can make bigger ships. Advanced Hulls --> Medium Scale Building --> Large Scale Building --> Massive Scale Building (The Techs are colored pink or orange.)

What is the full string, because I have no Twilight\Data\Custom Maps in my files, but maybe I am not seeing it.... I thought I could just create the file, but when I tried that it didn't work either.

Hey, I would also like to see this question answered. I've run into the same problem; when you save to the custom maps folder, nothing appears 'in game'. As for the editor itself, I can answer this one. To place an object, first select the type from along the top (star, planet, resource, ship, asteriods, etc.), then place it anywhere you would like it to go. Once you have placed the base object type, right click on it to open a pop-up modifier which will allow you to alter the star's de

Obviously piracy isn't a problem with customers because typically customers buy the software. Please change your title.

You have to build up a tremendous economy. If you use the money, at first, to fund economic endeavors, than eventually your economy will be strong enough that no tarif can stop it. I've done it before, but on larger maps. I don't know if you could get this to work on a small map.

Just destroy the freighters then...

Ok, so your questions have been answered, but I have one of my own: How do I access the Map Editor?

That's a really nice photo. Almost WallPaper quality!

I would just like to thank you for posting some real information about China. My teacher is a major China fanatic, he goes there in the summer to teach English, and he is married to a Chinese woman, so both of them often tell us all about the small inter-goings of China. On my visit there last April, I learned quite a bit, and I like to share this new understanding with people. I would like to thank you for giving the 'real' Chinese spin on things, since although I do have a general idea of what

[quote]Ok, I knew this would get political.Democrats have had control of congress and the presidency far more than republicans since the Democratic "new deal" which is now bankrupting us in the form of "social security" which should just be shortened to socialism.The fact is, in terms of times of success vs. poor economic times, the Republicans have it.Sure the economy is slowing right now (as it always does in cycles,) and sure we took a 12 month hit after 9/11, but most of the last 7 years hav

[quote]to act23456, I hope your comment on "Americans are the only ones with the freedom to waste their time coasting up and down the internet replying to such posts"was meant for laughs. For those who do agree with that statement, it will do you well to remember that America is not the only "free" english speaking country, secondly most participants who post here are from english speaking countries so hence the lack of people from "unfree" countries like france . Thirdly, if you have taken the

[quote]I personally think there are two things that could happen.1. The US will fall soon because of all of the debt it has accumulated in it's recent war with Iraq.We all know who to thank for that.[/quote] Great... now he's a anarchist talking gecko... Didn't you flee the galaxy SethPenquin, or are they having these problems on your new planet too?

Any refunds are just going to go towards gas or food, and ultimately end up benifiting foreign contries, not our economy.

[quote]Why post topics like this you just get loads of americans posting and no one listens to any one else. Also america will not always be a super power 100 years ago the brittish empire was the largest in the world and i am sure that they thought that it would never fall. we just don't know what is going to happen but all things end.[/quote] That is because Americans are the only ones with the freedom to waste their time coasting up and down the internet replying to such posts as the

Nequa, People liken the Roman Empire to the US because Rome was the beginning of the Democracy. It is not implying that we enjoy conquering, have slaves, build huge walls (although the Mexican Border could be argued), or have a society completely run by men. It is only an analogy; a way to prove a point.

"That's two of the most stupid things I've ever read. Regards the US economy being in a bad way... Just turn on the news! How about a bank going bankrupt and being bought for a pittance. Banks claiming back money at records rates, record mounts of losses, record amounts of repossessions, people aren't spending their money. WAKE UP!!" You need to wake up! Ask any one of the various UPS or FedEx drivers that coast by your house numerous times a day, and I garauntee you that they

[quote]As for the future of the US, I beleive that what SpacePony says to be the truth. We are not in a recession. The recession was created by the 'Bush-Haters' to scare people into becoming one of them. The environmentalists feel that if they can scare people enough, which obviously they have since this topic came up on a Sci-Fi Site, they can gain support for not only converting to biofuels and green technologies, but they can also aid the movement to pull out of Iraq. As for pesticides versu

Ok, so I don't know if this was mentioned already, but I didn't feel like reading through 8 pages of posts before replying. What it boild down to is this: China may surpass the US Economical (along with several other countries) but the bottom line is that THEY ARE NOT FREE. The people have no say in the government. We, as Americans, at least have some say in which way our country goes. If we are in a recession, it is our own fault. In the case that China does become number 1,

Hurray for Capitalism, and of course the beauty of a free country! I could see something like what happened to the Korx happening to Earth though....

I too had this happen. IDK, this first release seems awfully buggy...

Problem resolved

I want to download the TOA Expansion soon, but I read that first you need to update all of your games. So, since I just got DSL, I hadn't done this until now. Everything was downloading contently until I came to the expansion pack, DA. For some reason whenever I click 'update' the screen switches to the shop area of galciv2.com. What do I need to do? I have a feeling it has something to do with the serial number, which I don't think I ever entered. Can someone tell me where to find the serial nu
