Is the bug that breaks your game if you add 'Cheat' to launch options though steam back/not been fixed? Before I updated to the new beta the game would work by typing 'Cheat' in the steam Launch Options window but now it dosnt? It seems the wiki says "dont use it though steam or it breaks your game and u need to download" however it was working for me before the update.. ---- [I was going to post a separate post with the "bug" except the wiki says do
We cant use mods which is fine, but what about ships that are using ship parts from the DLC packs? Wont they not work for anyone who dosnt have the DLC? If that's the case should we just use the existing models of designs from the races and alter the weapons etc on them? Edit: Im also guessing you would like ship weapons, Armour, ect from all different tech stages? Or will replacement/upgrades be automated in some way? Ed

Awesome work :) Noticing the difference already! [quote]What other awards do you want to see?

Im posting this as a separate post as while they are related I dont want to muddle the 2 separate questions into one post :) [quote who="00zim00" reply="39" id="3659365"] If you just mean that the total resources present on the maps will be reduced but the visual objects themselves (blackholes, nebulars) will be the same then you can ignore part of the latter half of my post. Although i do believe the placement of Nebulars on the map need to be fixed/looked into if possible.<br /
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="37" id="3659348"] -Nebula and black holes and anmalies made much less common on all settings -Spacing of stars in star generation needs to be changed (hurts AI, makes game less interesting) -Large map base object count increased from 155 to 300 (i.e. over twice as many stars/planets/etc. in a particular size) [/quote] [quote who="Frogboy" reply="37" id="3659348"] Re reduction of space stuff There was just too much of everyt
Wow great work, I learned alot of stuff I didn't even know was being done behind the scenes. Looking forward to see how the changes play out :) [quote]Fixed bug that could cause the AI to see tiles in the opposite map position of where they were exploring [/quote] Question out of curiosity. From memory, unless this was changed the AI automatically knows where every planet/resource/ect is as they dont have there own FOW? More to counter the huge d
@Frogboy I blame Paul ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Jokes btw :D! Love you guys at Stardock and happy to hear your on the ball :) TLDR: I went on a rant(in a good way), I probably am wrong and didnt think though all my ideas and they are full of oversights. Keep up the good work! And I hope for future discussions between Stardock and the community :) --- I really agree with the need for a better late game mechanics. I had this long post I was wri
Thanks for the updates as always :)
Thank you! "Dozens of core parts in functional shapes like disks, boxes, and more" I know it may be coincidence but i remember asking for this waaay back in 1.0 initial release and im so glad it looks like you read the forums and listened [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
I can add a proper post but im not sure if this was an Idle thought of Paul that was never implemented or a change that was remove either by mistake or on purpose. I thought it was changed that when you pick the the Synthetic race trait players were prevented from picking food/growth and similar as Synthetic races cant use these traits anyway and it was basically giving people "free" points. Personally I liked the extra points and being OP but I do understand why the ch
wait.. i think im out of the loop.. people have 1.6 access? I can see the "Mercenaries Expansion pack" in my DLC list, but my games still saying 1.5 and i dont have any options in the opt in drop down list?
hmm, seems like i have the same problem. Access denied
Was there or is there going to be a Gal Civ 3 twitch cast with Paul showing off all the new features and to answer some questions? Would be nice :)
[quote who="The Sisko" reply="38" id="3616717"] Will the mercs be modder friendly? [/quote] Speaking of mod friendly, im wonder if the mercenaries designs of the ships can be auto gathered from other player designs in the workshop(then ship components auto added to the ships in game), or at-least have it as an option later in a patch. Would be really cool to play a game and find some really exotic or strange looking ships appear in the list. Would really add
[quote who="Go4Celerity" reply="28" id="3616683"] My last session with GalCiv3 ended in a rage quit when a vanilla AI colony ship with stacked engines snatched up a planet in my ZOI that I was 1 turn away from colonizing. I don't stack engines or sensors and I can no longer bring myself to play the game as is. If and until it's addressed I won't be purchasing content for GalCiv3.

Just my random 2cents to help, sometimes when I first start the game I get an instant freeze or crash on the loading screen. Sometimes it happens so fast you can't even tell it opened. When this happens most of the time the stardock sdcrashlog.exe (not exact name but I'm going from memory) is open in the task manager and so all you need to do is force close that in order to start the game correctly. Otherwise you get the game already running error.. (Sorry for the bad grammar typing o

As far as the techs go that give +1 diplomacy, I assume that they modify the same [/quote] Strangely enough, the Techs and some unique 1 off buildings that give a +1 Diplomatic Bonus do in fact Give the +1 bonus to relations as you would expect to races. So they do make races like you more and counteract the negative modifies. Its onl
