[quote who="Sole Soul" reply="2" id="2047292"]What you "believe" is the Domestic Policy mini-screen, accessible from the bottom row buttons, because your civilization's net and gross income are far more important than any one colony's net or gross. I'm unsure exactly why the numbers may be different in those two places, though.[/quote] Yes, but when I'm looking at a planet and tryinig to decide what improvments to build, I tend to look at whether or not the planet is sustai

after thinking about it for a moment, I think what I have realized is that when trying to decide between econnomic structures and farms, to think of it this way.... which will benefit more, X% of population increase from a farm or X% of economic increase from an economy building. But the thing to remember is that when increasing the population you will have to account for the extra morale penalty that will come from doing so.

When I look at my "Colonies" tab in the "Civilization Manager" section it might say that has a positive cash flow, but when I go to the screen for that specific colony, and do the math of the income minus maintenance and spending, it may come out as a negative number. Any explaination for this? Which screen to I believe, the "Civilization Manager" or the screen for the individual colony??

I'm trying to figure out how to balance between population, and economic structures, based on planet quality. At what point does it become more sensible to build economic structues rather than more farms?

I got this too on DA 1.61.090 I reloaded and it went away...

I have a couple questions. When a minor race infests your empire, does it always overthrow exactly two planets? Can more than one minor race invest your empire at the same time?

I got a message that the "Fundamentalist" minor race had been created. It said that they had over thrown several of my planets. Well, I only had two planets at this point, and guess what? They over threw them both! I hit end turn and that was it, I had been instantly defeated by this minor race! Is this normal or has it ever happened to anybody else? If it is of any relevance, I had encountered one of those moral choices just before this happened. It was the one where the government is

This problem still happens in DL 1.5, just letting you guys know.

4X games are mentally taxing games so a bit of comic relief is welcomed IMO.

Sorry to resurrect such an old thread, but this problem has still not been fixed and I was wondering why not? It is indeed annoying when the starbase details screen tells you there are modules available for installation and then when you send a constructor over there you find out otherwise. I'm playing DL 1.5 btw, so if this has been fixed in DA then forgive me.

I purchased Galactic Civilizations II Gold Edition [direct download only]. Everything went fine with the download and the game is working fine, but now I am kind of wishing that I had chosen the [download + CD] option. Is there any way I can still get the box and disks sent to me?

I have Gold Edition and I read in the manual that you can zoom in and out on the tech tree using the mouse wheel but it doesn't work for me? How do I do it, or does it only work for Dark Avatar? I'm playing the original right now. I can zoom just fine on the main map but I would like to zoom in tech tree because it is so big!!
