[quote who="pshaw" reply="1" id="3633070"] Thanks for the report. We're looking MP right now. [/quote] Thank you, we spent about an hour last night attempting to get the game working with multiple configurations. I had verified my game integrity, the other player had completely removed his game and reinstalled. This had no change. All games included just 2 custom faction (normal ones we've played with before with no changes) and/or several c

Basically just what the title says as soon as we start a game the game crashes as soon as the game loads for the joining player. Didn't matter who hosted the game. Please see ticket #SLJ-860-23051

[quote who="The Sisko" reply="6" id="3632958"] It's essentially a broken promise. It was meant to be one of the first things fixed coming out of the beta, but has just been continually pushed back and now will never be part of the base game. Given it has been pushed back so far hopefully that will mean we'll actually get something meaningful. Also I hope that they take the opportunity to look at the combat system as a whole. It needs significant work as we

I thought this was resolved prior to release about a year ago, however, in 1.6 & 1.7 I've seen this a few times. A specialty tile is occupied by the planet capitol. Why is this? Isn't there a check that states do not place capitol building on special tile? See image below.

[quote]The UI leaves a lot to be desired. Examples: Simply getting a count of the opponent's planets? And other such statistics. [I later found this one in the diplomacy screen, but that's a bad place for it to be exclusively. [/quote] A: One can estimate number of the average player in the game. At Gifted - Godlike AI just after the colony rush the AI typically has anywhere from 50-100% of your number of planets. (Should you be decent at colonizati

[quote who="Bainn" reply="2" id="3632480"] Thank you Seilore. So in other words, these option will display is certain criteria is met? [/quote] yes

Open Borders - One needs to have semi good relationship with in order to initiate this agreement. Should you already have an agreement with the faction, one won't be able to initiate another agreement until that one expired. Some tech trees may even require one to research basic diplomacy for this option. Peace Treaty - In order to initiate a peace treaty one must be at war. There is also a cool down period (I believe 20 turns) before that AI faction will even sp

[quote who="wpkelley41" reply="15" id="3632446"] When I attempted, the bar read: "None-Opt out of all betas." I was unable to change anything. Does that mean the beta is gone? When I start the game, it reads version 1.7. [/quote] Sounds like you're good. You could click on verify game cache if you want to be sure.

[quote]can you add a setting to default this option to NO?!? its annoying as hell to have it set automatically on when building a new starbase [/quote] The only thing that I see as a benefit would be to have the ability to turn all off or all on but, otherwise I don't see an issue with new games. Only current games that this is an issue.

[quote]Is it possible to make some "repeating techs" that can be researched over and over again? Every time when a repeating tech is researched, it provides some bonus on economy or military...... So that my empire can still make technological progress even in very late game. [/quote] It's been suggested many times, unfortunately at this time there hasn't been much of a conversation from Stardock on this feature. Personally I love the idea.

[quote who="wpkelley41" reply="10" id="3632361"] If we 'Opted-In" for 1.7, do we need to do anything to ensure we update to the official release? [/quote] Opt-out

[quote who="Zhen724" reply="31" id="3632362"] Removing bonus stacking would reduce the number of economic bases. [/quote] This would be a huge downfall. What I'd like to see more is bringing back the fees to build star bases. This also could add additional technologies to be able to reduce the cost of star base construction. I liked the Galactic Civilizations II way, where the first one was free, than next one cost a little, and next a little more, ect

So playing my current multiplayer game, with 88 factions and limited planets there is a great need for events that provide Ideology points. Unfortunately Multiplayer is excluded from mega events so no extra Ideology events. Therefore one only gets points by colonizing which we've only been able to colonize a couple planets. Needless to say, in this game setup Ideology is a mute point and a wasted feature in the game. Please think about adding these events to Mult

[quote who="androshalforc" reply="3" id="3632313"] yes but it also effects the lower levels by the same amount [/quote] Solve your issue increase the mass for environmental support to 6 (ratio 1.5) , Decrease the mass of Deep Space Support to 8 (ratio 1.875), Decrease the mass for Support Field Generator to 9 (ratio 2.0) and, they will have the ratio in order from beginning to end.

[quote who="mormegil" reply="2" id="3632238"] I think the idea of having an influence threshold the AI looks at before colonizing is good, this is really an edge case since most colonizing is done early on, but if you do not colonize mars, i can see how this would happen. [/quote] This became a huge issue in my current game with the special even that spawned random class 25 planets all over the map. AI was colonizing everywhere and most were culture flipped by the domi

That's too much math, :P Don't forget you get several mass reduction techs along the way that by researching any of those it unlocks the mass reduction on those parts.

[quote who="mortili" reply="9" id="3632225"] Do they belonge to an AI with the Vigilant-Abilitie? (Arcean) It stats to slow down enemy ships around all starbases [/quote] Really, yes they do. Didn't realize that thanks for that :) you're awesome.

They flipped it from me through culure.

[quote who="pshaw" reply="6" id="3632203"] We noticed there some unusual star names in your save file -- are you using any mods in that game? [/quote] Nope, never have, what ever star names I have are either from custom factions (home systems) or general stock. Mind you on a huge map with 88 AI almost every other system is from a custom faction.

[quote who="Old-Spider" reply="4" id="3632146"] The black hole seems to be still moving through the galaxy. [/quote] Either that or someone is developing a star killer base...

In the most current build of the game, I just had a planet flipped a few turns ago, yet it still appears on my planet list of my planets. I am unable to remove it. see image below... Ticket # #LQW-979-83086 Also, saving and reloading game reset the values so the save game won't be much help...

Updated with a second lost planet in different system. Same game.
