[quote who="Syrris" reply="1" id="3607732"] Unlike Open Borders, Nonaggression Pact, and Exploration Treaty, the Culture/Economic/etc treaties are not mutual; when you offer it, you're giving them a benefit but you don't receive anything in return. Why would you do this? Because the AI starts drooling at the thought of receiving a boost like that and will trade a LOT of stuff in return for the treaty benefit. [/quote] This is incorrect. As of 1.4

[quote quoting="post"] You get to reply to like 3 things in a day, im not even sure I did that many today after coming back to answer the couple threads I started last night. Horribly restrictive to the point I didn't even get a chance to post the suggestions I had yesterday or today. Guess ill just read these and not bother trying to post/reply if I have to string it out over weeks just to reply and thank people for answering the couple posts I made... [/quote]

[quote who="Director" reply="2" id="3593479"] Or when you add a ship. Or when you release a ship. Or when you even think about that fleet, seems like. [/quote] Yes. The fleet name system is just like The Game. When you think about it, you lose it.

I am one of those who mercilessly uses the ability to sell techs to minor races in order to bankrupt the minor races before I roflstomp them. In diplomacy's current in-game iteration, this ends up being really, really easy to do. I play with the AIs at "Gifted" currently. Are the AIs less generous in trades at higher difficulty levels? If not, then I agree with the sentiment that diplomacy could be more immersive/challenging. As of right now, the way the dipl

So far, I haven't seen this issue again in 1.02.

Well the game (I think) was started post 1.01, but I'm starting a new 1.02 opt-in game today. I did in fact mark core designs obsolete, so at least now I know what was causing it.

The gunboat anomaly, frozen colonists anomaly, and any other one that says it gives a ship (other than the one that gives a scout) is now not giving me a ship. I'm playing Krynn. I cannot find the instructions to create a dump file so can someone point me to how to do what I need to do to submit this to support? I don't see a sticky "How to submit bugs" post. Please let me know what all you need. I've linked the save. I'm pl

There needs to be an option to refuse any gift, not just to refuse surrenders. It should also piss off the other empire when you refuse a gift. (At least a single "-" worth of diplomatic penalty, for at least 25 turns.) There's no such thing as a free gift. On the plus side, diplomacy is something Draginol talked about in the Steam forums Memorial Day AMA. Improvements to it will be a part of the first major content patch post-relea

The contrast and brightness sliders also do not work and Earth's map looks really washed-out on the social production screen in Beta 6. If this is the same issue you're talking about.

[quote who="Stohrm" reply="8" id="3539309"] Two out of three in the "Specializations" would work for me; but what I would suggest is making that set of selections researchable up to three times. Thus, if you truly want to specialize in one out of the three you have truly done so. If you want to specialize in one more than another, then that's an option as well; and if you choose not to truly specialize in any of them you do have all three (but at a third each of what
