When a planet build queue is empty and the manufacturing is set to zero then there will be no "Idle colony" on the turn button. How to reproduce: Rush buy an improvement and have no other items in the build queue; Set the manufacturing to zero, for example set it to 100% wealth or research; Advance to the next turn; The build queue will now be empty, but you will not be notified of this on the turn button. Therefor the game allows you to ad

[quote who="Rhonin_the_wizard" reply="1" id="3534437"] The devs' concerns with cloaking was that the AI wouldn't be able to handle it and that they would need to make that effect when the ship is invisible [/quote] The problem was that if cloaking made the ships shimmer to indicate cloaking that would give problems to both the AI and the player. In my solution a ship is either visible or not. And because the default cloaking of zero, the ships without cloaking tech w

There have been a lot of talk on the forum and in the dev feeds about cloaking (and its absence in GalCiv3) therefor herewith my proposal for a workable cloaking system within the game. Premises. Every ship has a cloaking factor (default zero); A fleet has the cloaking factor of the lowest cloaking factor of the ships in it (corrected by any fleet cloaking components that are installed on the ships in the fleet); Every planet and sta

As which race are you playing? Because the TechDefs.xml file is used for races that do not have a specific tech tree. For the Terrans you should change the TerranTechDefs.xml, for the Thalan you should change the ThalanTechDefs.xml, etc, etc... This means that if you want to change the research cost for all races you will have to supply modified versions of all the *TechDefs.xml files. Note: You did not alter the research rate you altered the research

Known bug. [.72.2][Bug] Benevolent Exporters (Traders I) does not gives an additional traderoute

Ray, i was going through a fast test game in which i (except for the starting turn save) made no save. Therefor i have no save prior to this bug.

Ray. Ticket submitted.

Ray, ticket submitted.

Sometimes when your survey ship tries to grab an anomaly that is protect by pirates the warning prompt stating that fact does not show up. This means that you do not have the choice to withdraw and combat ensues whether you want it or not. In all cases that the warning didn't show, i won without taking any damage. So i did not lose any ships, but it is a bug never the less.

After starting a new game my custom (tiny and cargo) ships showed up in the shipyard build list, and i was able to produce them even while their current mass was way above the mass maximum. I was able to build a cargo hull with 4 colonizer modules on turn 1.

How to reproduce: Place a rally point next to the shipyard; Attached the rally point to the shipyard; Build ship; Observe how the ship is not deployed on the rally point. And please give us (an easy) ability to see which rally point is attached to a shipyard.

I have not checked all my ships but in a short game i played some showed up correctly. And a number of customs ship which i should not have been able to see also showed up (with current mass larger than the maximum allowed mass) for my current tech and miniaturization level. However ALL my custom ship classes (as defined in a custom XML) fail - XML errors during game start up. SD seems to have changed the XML structure for this. More than 50 ship classes down the drain.

[quote who="erischild" reply="31" id="3528966"] I am trying to use the "spawn" command which I saw Paul using on the dev stream. It is asking for names for ship types and nothing I am trying is working. Anybody got any deeper insight into the command console? [/quote] It only works on ship designs by specifying the full ship name, which is a hassle. Better to use short ship names. Furthermore the ship name must be limited to just letters and numbers (a

stephen3 without any specifics, about start-up settings/the actual current turn/initial generated map/usage of custom ship designs/modded files/etc..., it is very hard to make any statement about whether there is a problem with the AI level and/or compare it to the game play results of another player.

It should give extra hit point bonuses (5 HP base and 1 HP per building level) to all newly build ships. At the moment you can not build it because it is dependent on the tech "Hull Strengthening" which is disabled (in the Beta). And even if that tech is not disabled then it will not function because it use the "OnConstruct
