I have no issue with star bases, my only issue still with diplomacy exploits and other bugs...

Dear Stardock, Why does the AI value these agreements so much? According to the information on a free trade agreement, this provides a 25% boost to the economy and last for 50 turns. In my current game the vast majority of the AI is earning less than 100 per turn. Using that number a 25% boost is 25 credits, over 50 turns 1,250 credits. Now I know the economy will increase over 50 turns, however, why are they willing to pay in most cases twice that value for th

[quote who="pshaw" reply="7" id="3632070"] Thanks for the report and ticket. We'll look into it. [/quote] Thank you, I don't know if you could also help me on this, in this same game, ships launched from my home planet's ship yard seem to move 50% slower for some reason as if they are being effected by a slow ship module from some where. There appear to be potentially 3 star bases that may have effect passing over my ship yard, however, 2 of

[quote]So which Race is the best? [/quote] The best faction in the game that doesn't judge you by the faction you are but, on the individual you've become. Personally of the core factions I prefer the Thalan, Altarians, or the Torians. However, I rarely play the core factions and tend to play a custom faction I developed.

[quote who="BuckGodot" reply="5" id="3631893"] What I have seen is if your starbase radius falls within the radius of ANOTHER faction's starbase and that second faction's starbase is mining/studying something, [/quote] There may be another factions star base mining materials off to the left of this star base, however, there still isn't any relics anywhere near either star base even if that is what your saying. I also thought it was calculating range w

Sorry it took so long for me to post the ticket on this, #RAC-944-10670 this is still happening on 1.7 patch 4.

In the new game I just started Kaupleja V is about 10 tiles away from it's parent star. This seems quite unusual. I have submitted ticket #RAC-944-10670 . Below is the screenshot. A second screen shot added... at the beginning, notice Latlynn II is 8 tiles away from it's parent star. One thing I noticed on this one is that the planet was fairly new, it wasn't there earlier in the game. <img src="https://i.imgsafe.org/c6ce49b.jpg"

[quote who="hfxnikolai" reply="10" id="3631867"] That said, I do really miss the 'upgrade all' option lol.. [/quote] The upgrade all ships of x type is in there, just buried in the Govern tab under commands. Hopefully this helps, the only thing is it's very easy to put yourself greatly in the negative by doing this so be careful ;)

[quote who="mormegil" reply="2" id="3631851"] bight [/quote] bite, sorry to be picky... As far as the diplomacy changes I like what I'm seeing, however, the AI still doesn't see multiple trade resources, example. I am trading 1000 credits for (1) snuggler colony. The AI will accept. I now am trading 1000 credits for (3) snuggler colonies. The AI will still accept. They see multiple as the same value yet.

Updated this post with additional ideas in blue. Please feel free to post your suggestions here too....

With the Diplomacy work being done, will the AI see the multiple trade resources trade (3) snuggler colonies as (3) and not (1)? I haven't seen this being mentioned in the improved diplomacy work as well as I've noticed they still don't care on the amount in which they are trading?

I've seen this problem but, only sometimes and usually it's rare and I haven't been focused enough on the issue to create a ticket on it. However, yes it does happen.

[quote who="bertranhalfwaite" reply="5" id="3631484"] Now I'm not a founder so not very invested, nor do I really care about the game, I've had fun up to date so had my money's worth and so on so I'm not going to go do silly things like leave negative reviews on Steam, heck I'm much more likely to leave a positive one tbh, and might buy the expandalone anyway if nothing else takes my fancy before it comes out as i could see enjoying another hundred hours, so at the en

What is your issue? Maybe the community can assist with you or confirm that they have acknowledged the issue? Thanks.

[quote who="Publius of NV" reply="1" id="3631242"] The same problem was also reported by someone else in this thread. [/quote] Thanks

Going into my current battle against the AI, showed Victory Very Likely. Watching the battle in viewer, shows my ships didn't do well, in fact I lost all three of my medium hull ships and they had surviving 3 small ships and one transport. After finishing the battle and going back to the game screen, I won, having 2 remaining medium hulled ships left and the AI nothing. I noticed this prior to this when I killed 1 of their ships but, I lost it showed I killed no

[quote who="Larsenex" reply="7" id="3631103"] Seilore, Gaurd keeps the fleet/ship there without having it ping back. It does nothing other than keep the ship there, Sentry does the same thing except if any faction cruises into view the 'sentried' fleet will pull you back for an action before letting the turn end. Does that make sense? [/quote] Yes, I just missed it, I was thinking of a different post completely and got them cros

I started a game 1.7 Opt-in 2, saved the game right away and had to leave as I liked my starting position, however, upon returning to the game, I lost my free race specific trait research points. Why?? Thanks

[quote who="pshaw" reply="5" id="3631069"] Guard: We added it in the latest opt-in last week. You sometimes need to restart steam for opt-ins to update correctly. If its still a problem, then please let me know. [/quote] Don't know what "Guard" is referring to, maybe I have missed something... I think you're referring to the save game bug, which you had stated that 1.7 - 2 you had a fix for, than several of us pointed out was still sticking

[quote who="pshaw" reply="2" id="3631068"] Hi, Yes, a save game would be helpful. Thanks https://esupport.stardock.com/index.php?/Tickets/Submit [/quote] This is happening in every game I've started so far in 1.7 - 2 so I think it would be fairly easy to reproduce, however, I'll create an official ticket later today :)

In this game the star base shows the Archeology Lab available but, there are no relics anywhere near this star base? when hovering over the lab it says all have been claimed by another player which is incorrect as well.

I haven't seen it in my last few games but, it's a random pull of 36 of a possible 72 mercs available I believe. So I think it's still there.

[quote who="erischild" reply="3" id="3630555"] It would aggravate the cheesiness of Tech Brokering, though. The buy low, sell high, principle would make large population galaxies a Diplomacy free for all. [/quote] In my suggestion, one would not really be buying low and selling high as in the game everything will naturally continue to increase in value but, never decrease, except for if a faction is being conquered then trading anything to them may be view

[quote]1. Shipyard defenses. Shipyards are easy to replace if destroyed, but it'd be nice to be able to build better defenses and weapons for them (with constructors) to avoid the annoyance of guarding or rebuilding them. Or perhaps they could be attached to an economic starbase on a neighboring tile, so that enemy ships would have to destroy the starbase to attack the shipyard (or destroying the starbase could also destroy the attached shipyard). [/quote] This was talk

This is what I've been thinking about with all the ease of exploiting the AI when it comes to diplomacy. Why is the AI so easy to exploit? Here is what I would change... First off lets say Custom Faction A has a high priority on Research and a low priority on Culture, with everything else in between.... I would make it so that this AI is going to pay more in either credits or other items for anything that will help them accomplish their goal to obtain research
