[quote who="j31254" reply="17" id="3558997"] hi dumhead! [e digicons]:)[/e] I'm a beginner at modding and I'm following this guide. TY for it. Can I ask a question? How do I fix the errors: Ship Design: Missing ship design for ship class static blueprint ValyrianStartingScout. Was this caused by pointing to a custom ship design? Blueprints must point to core or modded ships. <p
[quote who="SorrowKnight" reply="183" id="3559004"] AI places less emphasis on capturing resources (fewer constructors running around) Well... I tried 1.02 patch, and... AI almost not interested in capturing resources even if he have a lots of it in ZOC. Previously AI was extremely active in gathering resources, now it`s same extremely passive at that aspect.

With the changes to kinetic mass (along with the changes to carrier modules) could the GuardianFighterBlueprint get a KineticWeapon line added? I've been having a look at drones today - if you busy patchers have the chance could you take a look at my thread here: https://forums.galciv3.com/466693/page/1/ Code for suggesti
Agreed! It's way too easy to succumb to the feeling that the negative outweighs the positive, but the forums are full of people helping out with issues and improving the gaming experience together. Perhaps that means we should be a little clearer about how appreciative we are for the work Brad and the team put in to this.

[quote who="Menmaatre" reply="21" id="3558793"] I downloaded the star trek ships and added them to my designs folder but they don't show up as templates when I enter ship designer. [/quote] They will only show up starting from a new save - saves kinda lock in templates and .xml's from the start.

Hey guys, as some of you may have seen in the 'show your ships' and 'share your template' threads, I'm working on a stable of Federation/Starfleet ships from Star Trek! Due to getting a little annoyed at having to manually design and upgrade craft with my new templates, and having found Dumhed's excellent guide (here: https://forums.galciv3.com/465834/page/1/ ) I started work on a c

[quote who="Sansloi37" reply="6" id="3558600"] Hey TurielD, great post! I agree with pretty much all of your points, and have in fact modded my game to do almost everything you've suggested - increased maintenance/manufacturing costs, and assaults made into tiny missile bombers (and switched them with interceptors, so that now interceptors are the base fighter and carrier focus unlocks either "bombers" or kinetic Guardians). I also changed the high capacity carrier module into a one-

[quote quoting="post"] So as far as I understand you need to spent your own population to build ground troops. If true than that means ground troops are insanely valuable and that losing them is the same as basically losing portions of your empire.[/quote] They are very valuable, keep them protected!

What's happening is the ship designer thinks the ship is so big it needs more space - it's basically measuring the distance from your starting part to an edge (I dunno which edge). So, if you move your ship forward by grabbing the base part and moving it along the Z axis, the ship will change size in the screenshot.

[quote who="wuphonsreach" reply="10" id="3558455"] My feeling for the diplo-timer of 20 turns is that it should be scaled based on how big the previous interaction was. And it should be by "category" instead of an entire "do not talk to us" switch. Traded me for tech? First off, there should be a limit of no more then 3-5 techs traded at a time, then a 20 turn average cool-down before you can trade tech again with that race. Races that like you might be willing to
Please skip past the images below if you are already aware of the fighter balance discussion to see my suggestion/code. I was just checking out the differences between the various Fighter types, having unlocked them fairly late in the game, and noticed that the higher tech 'guardian' and 'interceptor' fighter types are vastly outclassed by the standard AssaultFighter: <img src="http:/
it'd be good to share a save where this is about to happen
It does work, but only after construction indeed. Also, is it just me, or is Builder 3 giving starbases 2 spare modules; my 8-construction-point constructors can build 8 different starbases with 3 upgrades each :D

Here's an idea: Let military starbases exude a zone of control that doesn't protect things directly, but involves the base in any battle happening in that zone - 2 hexes or so. So, if you have a starbase next to your planet, troop transports and attacking craft can't just go to town without going through the starbase. But, due to the starbase overlap issue, you will have to choose between surrounding planets with production/culture bases, or having a militar
Hey all, here's a couple of minor gripes I have with how ending a war goes while you're winning. First, the AI will tell you they've had enough, and you get this message: To which I say 'very well' because I am a benevolent god, and I'd like to negotiate the terms of their surrender. But what "Very Well." actually does is immediately accept
