I've gone ahead and submitted a ticket (with save file) on this. #KFR-317-58810 I suggest others in this situation do the same, as the more tickets they get the easier it is for them to figure out what is going on.

Editing Star Names [b]In Game[/b] is on "The List" (you can always edit the star name list outside of the game in the XLMs via modding). No ETA yet though. As for "No Surrenders" the idea has been broached to the devs several times lately. so they are aware that some people want it. Whether it's coming or not, isn't yet known.

Talked about this in today's devstream with Paul and this [b]MIGHT[/b] be intentional (though he might not have been sure what I was talking about). But Paul said he might look into it and see if the problem is as bad as some of us make it out to be. On the one hand, the Altraians do get a couple of extra bonus terraforming improvements that literally no one else gets (they get an extra Habitat level terraforming improvement for instance). On the other hand, if the Alt

Multiplayer is undergoing stability QA. There were some issues with MP that cropped up late in the beta, so Stardock shut down everything that was buggy and they are turning them back on one by one. I think I heard them say in devchat today that multiplayer should be fully functional within a week or so. Unfortunately, QA testing on insane maps takes a lot of Stardock people hours. ;)

The last three cheevos. Results Outweigh Ideals Means To An End We Care For The Least of Us No descriptions for them, though. Looking at the icons, it looks like Ideological achievements. Perhaps filling out each of the tables? Makes sense. Also wonder if they're bugged at the moment due to the lack of description and not showing up in the "Personal Achievements" section.

Given how things are stored in-game, I presume anyone who makes a mod with these parts, their mod will be useable by anyone, with or without the DLC. Custom art is custom art, no matter what the source. The idea that these would "break" for people without the DLC doesn't make much sense to me.

Not gonna happen, sorry. :) This is something that has come up time and time again, and mostly for game balance reasons, the devs aren't going to break the One Turn One Thing Built paradigm. What you [b]do[/b] get is production and research overflow. So at least it's not wasted. But the ability to spam out 20 snubfighters every turn would have SERIOUS effects on game balance. Which is probably why it is [u]very[/u] rare for a turn based 4x game

[quote who="00zim00" reply="3" id="3548360"] You know what I feel is missing, techs that give a flat reduction to empire approval. Even maybe even a one per player building that decreases approval penalty on a global basis. Although would I prefer a tech as if your planet with the building is taken your screwed. The game Endless Space had this and did it very well, it allowed you to expand at your own pace and as soon as you started getting to big you could just research say a 20% empire
