I can confirm that every galaxy size has a maximum number of players that is allowed. The number is different for each galaxy size. It is possible to go higher than that, but the game won't allow you to leave the setup window until you reduce the number to an allowed value. I haven't found these limits anywhere in the xml files. I'm not sure if that means I missed them or if they are hard coded somewhere else. Also, this is Intrigue.

According to the description for Eyes of the Universe, it does not reveal all homeworlds. Instead, it reveals the homeworlds of all hyperdrive-capable civilizations. This may indicate that a tech needs to be researched before they are considered to be hyperdrive-capable. The problem with this is that everyone starts with the Engineering tech, which allows the hyperdrive, so all races should be hyper-drive capable at the start of the game. Maybe the g

I have reported this exact same behavior in a support ticket and in several posts. It still exists in 3.0 and Intrigue. Only the devs will be able to fix it completely. I have partially fixed it by making a mod that changes the default colony ship population to 0.5. The Yor are then able to send out 8 colony ships with population to settle 8 planets before they resume sending out empty colony ships. I think they will send out colony ships, empty or not, as long a

This has existed since Crusade was launched. I made a post in March about it and other bugs and how long ago I created support tickets about the problems.

Foreign and enemy are considered to be the same in this game. Check the Sentry command to see how it actually works compared to what the tool tip says. My ships are slowed if they go through the area of effect of a starbase owned by a foreign race with the Vigilant trait. It doesn't matter if we are at war, or if we are allies, or anywhere in between. AI-controlled ships are never slowed.

[quote who="AdamMG" reply="6" id="3708593"] Firstly, it feels very crowded like they've shrunk the map again intentionally or otherwise. I haven't bothered to look for the settings in the files but has anybody else noticed this? [/quote] [quote who="AdamMG" reply="6" id="3708593"] The maps seem a bit smaller to me as well. [/quote] I guess I noticed it, but it didn't really register with me. I have been keeping track of the galaxy sizes since the Alph

I have only been playing Crusade until the V3 Beta became available. It does not happen in Crusade. It does happen in the V3 beta that is available.

Sounds reasonable. I'll be slower and see if I can prevent it.

Here are some bugs I have found in the V3 beta. Paxton's Emporium Paxton's Emporium has this in its xml description: true true This description indicat

This continues my list of bugs in Crusade. It Is Possible to Build More Than One of One-Per-Race Planetary Improvements This includes the following: Central Bank Computer Core Galactic Mainframe It seems to need to follow this sequence to work: 1. Build one. Now I can't build another one.

There are several bugs in Crusade that are causing problems and should be fixed, hopefully before Intrigue is released. Two of these bugs allow the AI to cheat. Another cripples the AI when it is playing as Synthetic. I have reported them on support tickets. Today I found out that support tickets should no longer be used. See Reply #7 in this post. AI-Controlled Ships Are I

[quote who="Rhonin_the_wizard" reply="7" id="3708461"] Support tickets are no longer used for reporting bugs/crashes, rather post directly on the forums. [/quote] When did this happen? I have usually used support tickets to report bugs because they would always be in the support records. I always get a response from someone in support saying the information has been forwarded to the developers, so I assumed the devs would see it and do something. Does thi

WOW! Bower's World must really be bad if you need to tell me 3 times that I shouldn't go there. I'll be sure to stay away, unless I'm playing as a synthetic race. They probably don't get the "stomach flu", unless they get something worse.

OK. I agree.[e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

[quote]You've heard the term "tourist trap". [/quote] Will there be other "Tourist Traps" in the game besides Port of Call? I seems to me that some of the races, or types of races, could have some different and interesting types of "Traps".

[quote who="AdamMG" reply="6" id="3707055"] Quoting iRedEarth, reply 5 From what I've seen, the AI always goes for the longest trade route possible. So the only way to encourage trade is to be in the corner of the map. I see this all the time. [/quote] I also see t

I've had it occasionally in my recent Crusade games. The last game I played I saw it on the planet of another race. I've never been able to clear it when it happens to my planet. It still existed after I saved the game, quit GalCiv3, the restarted and loaded the next day.

What type of alerts are you getting? If it is something like this "Beware, [Your name]. We have received reports of pirates. These scavengers destroy anything they come across.", you can ignore it. It is just one of several generic conversations that the AI can initiate as part of the Flavor Text. They don't mean anything.

x = HexSectorSize Total Hexes = 3x^2 + 3x +1

Using the HexSectorSize for the galaxy sizes in MapSizeDefs.xml, I get different, mostly larger, numbers. Map Size Tiles Tiny 1,261 Small <

I see this on a 4K monitor with the UI size set to Large. UI sizes of Normal and Medium don't have this problem. This was long before 2.8 was released. What are your monitor and UI sizes?

If you have enabled cheats, you can use the console to destroy the Peacekeeper ships. In case you don't know how to get to the console, here is a link . To get rid of the Peacekeeper ships, do this: Click on a ship Open the Console Type in destroy , then hit Enter. Use the Esc key to close the Console. Repeat for each ship you find. To keep them out of new games, I think
