Consider that at some point in the game if you are "evil", the modules are free and you can just spam constructors until your bases are maxed out. And for the record I did achieve a solid 1000 extra per turn thanks to trade with 8 medium trade routes going out and a few starbases in the busy points. So it CAN easily help your economy but in times of war, of course, it will become risky at best to rely on it. At the very least you could use the peace time bonus to raise your industrial spending.

Um I know that after i dled something from stardock called about "galciv2 heightmaps" that supposedly optimized them, I notice that my squares are innacurate. I also installed custom graphics though so I thought those might have been the problem (ie. named files for a older patched version) but maybe it isnt.

as far as long games are concerned, I think I read that memory leak can be an issue as games get too large EDIT: Klanathu: update your sound drivers from the realtek site, that may make a difference. I know on the common bugs page the stardock people loved to talk about updating sound components/drivers to get rid of crashes. Well I did that but to no avail for my own crashing problem :/
