My guess is no, since most people, myself included, don't use the standard ships. Usually the situations I get into require specific ships that aren't core ships. However, I do sometimes use standard transports, freighters, and space miners depending on the situation.

I believe teh calculation is there's a pool of money equal to 1bc for every 100 million popualtion in the galaxy, and then you get a percentage of that equal to the percent influence you exert over the galaxy. For example, if the total galaxt population is 1 trillion, the pool is 1 trillion/100 million which equals 10,000bc. Now, if you influence was over 1/4 of the galaxy, you would get 2,500bc. I believe the question at hand is, is it based on the entire galaxy, whether or not the
Wow. That is crazy. Did you still win?

If I remember correctly, it may have to be classified as "Aquatic" though.
According to the manual, they are the new Jihad. They've built increased followings based on a strict moral code.

So is 1.59.078 the beta, or an update before the beta? Thanks!
I just hat ewhen I lose an invasion by less than 1000 troops. Cause unless I happen to have another on the way, I have to go out of my way to make another quickly, and get it there before the population rises too much.
Yah, it would be hard to balance it. It just is frustrating because sometimes I swear I'm at lasers and the AI is 4 weapons past that, so they have like 3-4 ships in a fleet and 250 beam attack (for example).
I suppose, but technically lasers and plasma weapons have little to do with one another other than being beam weapons. Lasers deal with light intensification, whereas plasma is more gas-based (as far as I know). I guess I just feel that you shouldn't have to miniturize a weapon first before you can start working on a new type of weapon. Just my opinion.
It usually depends on teh bonuses I get on the random pop-ups. I usually try to end up neutral to good (I'm just not an evil person) but I won't not play evil if it means too much given up.
Geez, here I worry about people actually liking me, and trying to keep morale up as high as possible, and it seems most people oppress them and keep them just happy enough to avoid a revolt. Silly me.
I was reading the manual, and I was thinking about weapons, and armor to a degree, and I had an idea. Using the beam weapons as an example, once you research Laser 1, you should be able to research Laser 2 or Plasma 1. All the 2-whatever do is make the inital weapon smaller, so in theory you should be able to research a new type of weapon. However, you could tie in the idea where the more you research to make the previous weapon smaller, the quicker it becomes to research the next weapon(perh
Especially since it's in the bug reports section. I could "maybe" understand if it was in the Off-Topic forum.
Isn't there a "hyperion computer" or "nano recorders" or something that also increases research?
I usually see a few planets with one or two, usually low end stuff, occasionally one with a biggie, and on rare occasions with a couple biggies. But then again, they're "bonus" tiles, so they should be rare, that's the point. I play the last patch before the 1.6 beta.
Yah, don't lease items ha ha. Well, you could raise taxes and keep your people on the edge of revolt, you coudl decrease production until you aren't running a negative income. Also, research higher economic buildings and place them on your colonies. Finally, if you REALLY need money, trade your techs to other races for money I don't advocate the last one, as I play with tech trading off, but some people seem to think it's a good thing to do. They do suggest selling it to all races though, t
Oh yah, running last update before beta 1.6 of Dark Avatar, and I saved/quit right after it happened.
Not sure if anyone else has had this problem. The Kork had just surrendered about 1-3 turns ago, and all of a sudden the minimap just became a mess. It had the right colors, but it was just a garbled mess of colors. It was like some of the squares got moved, or it was a different resolution or something. However, after saving, quitting, and restarting/reloading, it was fine. I saved the debug before restarting, and is as follows: (BTW, not a big deal to me, reminds me to stop, and
As much as I hate them, I could really use them in my game right now, the Altarians and Dregnin could more or less wipe me out in a heart beat.
or you could cause a rebellion in an another civ with spies I believe you could do this in the old Master of Orion series. Would be an interesting tactic.
Regarding colonization techs, why do you stil have to research the 1st tech (for example Barren World Colonization) if you steal the advanced tech to get 100% production. Wouldn't the advanced tech include the basic one?
Here's another one that might work. If a planet has a high pop, put spies on their morale buildings, it might help get more people for info warfare if you can get it low enough. Never tried it though yet.
If you create a custom race to use for yourself, is it possible to start at either good or evil ethics, or do you have to start at neutral?
