I doubt this will be included but could you combine multiple traits in a future version? Some are mutually exclusive, but I would like to see really important planetary traits and multiple variables like MOO1 or MOO2. It makes the galaxy feel far more immersive. Like high gravity + fertile + terran, or volcanic + low gravity + rich. Traits have very little influence on planetary performance compared even to the random distribution of tiles. And if racial ab

Does this preview include data changes under the hood mentioned by Frogboy? Safe to mod with a relatively stable structure?
To check if I understand correctly: Enormous galaxies tend to blast the GPU but quality or power of the GPU doesn't matter - it's because communication between CPU and GPU flood capacity of the port and everything has to be synchronous because of DirectX 11? And graphical memory contains logical data that is not exclusively related to rendering as an optimization because otherwise memory requirements would go through the roof.
I actually created a mod to make the capitals buildable - you delete your random capital and rebuild in 1 turn. It should definitely be non-random in vanilla. Randomized maps are just necessary to the genre, but random building location definitely is not.
I had one of these on GIFTED. It was Thalan and turn 31.
Proprietary compression then?
Seems interesting and that is some amazingly fast turnaround with autoupgrade option. With the increase in arable land I wonder if the entire mechanic of arables should go in favor of simple agriculture improvements. Wasn't it added to prevent food from being too common? And give planets more individuality, but that can happen more effectively with more special tile diversity and planetary traits. With population growth becoming the main resistance to colonizat
Where is the information about mods stored in saves? To apply a mod to one
[quote who="SchismNavigator" reply="4" id="3775245"] Logged this in Jira for one of the designers to take a closer look at. [/quote] Thanks! I noticed lots of posts about this through google so looked to modding instead of a suggestion. On some of those they suggested a "global governor" to be the default settings on new colonies or a way to mass apply. [quote who="Horemvore" reply="5" id="3775255"] Yes order matters....alot.

Oof, order does matter. Will make mod maintenance a pain.

The autoupgrade feature is bassackwards and impossible to turn off without individually setting it on every colony I noticed this setting in Trade Resource Defs but it does not seem to work with other improvements. Any idea how? ThuliumCatalyst ThuliumCatalyst_Name
I have everything but ship toolbox, retribution, and star control. Put it in Documents\My Games\GC3 Crusade
Before main screen I get message about numerous "incompatible faction detected", using generic values +Unknown Ship Style. There are no Star Trek factions in New Game. Same I noticed a few minor things from core are working but most of the mods are not.
Been wondering about a more immersive colonization mod in which administrators are changed to "planetary study." Colony production would be more dramatic, taking social production and science to build.
The top is better IMO because it's brighter. Water especially. But these are quite different planets so the bottom might be specific to shrouded planets. More planetary character is welcome. Definitely something I care about. Especially if planetary traits can be made prerequisites to events or improvements, or if racial abilities can give bonuses on specific planets a la the way Bulrathi get normalized production in high gravity.
Related: Colony spam would be more realistically countered by simply raising homeworld starting productivity and reducing colony starting productivity. Why can a colony on an alien planet be 1/3 or 2/3 as productive as homeworld in one year?

Better yet make it class 3 to respect population cap of 3 on base colony capital and lower its starting population from 5 to 3. The population drop due to overcrowding is incredibly mismatched with benevolent ideology. Class 1 planets are super annoying to manage too.
Moved "Word on the Street" window to the Govern screen. Optional please? Prefer immersion to queue size
The Stardock CEO recently said this is intended
Benevolent traits, brindle's observatory, and the hidden alien base event generate colony ships or planets with 5 population. This is apparently intentional to make them useful, but civilizations that put 5 billion citizens in 3 billion cap planets and kill 2 billion of them do NOT feel appropriately benevolent. You can transfer population with colony ships but it requires incredibly awkward micromanagement and delays the ability to activate the ideology. AFAIK Benevolen
Suddenly, save or load require many gigabytes of memory - task manager says upwards of 10GB of RAM. The load can take many minutes. No civilizations are even at war yet! Only 13 colonies. 13 total factions. Windows 10, Gigantic galaxy.

Large quantities of a resource are virtually useless when antimatter weapons cost 10 less production than regular ones and require a distinct design. They are valuable in early game wonder rush and colony rush but ridiculously redundant later. The Thalans offered me stellar folding and now not even engines justify it.
