Re: Report - Current Bugs and Issues

I have two save games now that have failed to continue by a LUA error. "chibi is missing required field: race -> nil" in MoraleReports.lua, 85. I'm on v38803 (GOG "development branch"). I never had any issues on the stable branch. I guess I need to return to it. What are the chan...

Re: Suggest - Features and Improvements

You can end up with "ghost ships" (ships that are awaiting refits) forever if you lose control of the planet on which their refit projects are "stored". For example, annex a neutral colony of another race, then queue on that planet some refits for ships, then, to demonstrate, em...

Re: Slave armies?

Yeah... This is a case of "put them on trade ships in the corner of your empire and forget about them. Or disband the ships while they're populated just to get rid of them. Gremak's really hard to play because you can only barely use their slavery mechanics.

Re: Suggest - Features and Improvements

We're just a couple days shy of 2 years since the last update. I'd love to see a new update, even if it's a small one with the text fixes people have submitted and integration of one of those universally-loved mods (like the population panel). I hope Sven and Jim are doing well and all that. SiS is ...

Re: Comparative Ship Strengths

If medium is 3, large must be least 6, because a large mount can be used as two mediums. (In fact, this is often the optimal choice for ships that have no issues closing to range, and for particular techs - many twin medium mounts do more damage than a single large.) Indeed. I do hope there's an of...

Re: Got Dzibix?

I always felt it was strange that, of all the empires, the Tinkers functioned oddly/differently when annexed. The others give you their big perks, but not the Tinkers. Nice hunting to track it all down!

First research goals

No matter the faction I'm playing, I always prioritize Containment Fields + Fusion as my first research goal. Every game varies from there, though there's a strong bias toward Market Theory then Self-Organizing Networks as early as possible. If other plants have useful but not friendly species, I'll...

Re: Unscanned systems

Thank you thank you! Hey devs, please put this in the core game! I think about this every time I start a new game.

I could see galaxy map appending a ? if it's unscanned. "Denebola?"

Re: Help with Humans

As such I have proposed to have Boarding Pods function like missiles in that they could be intercepted via PD, AM and fighters Or remove them from the game to not tempt the player :) Isn't that how they work? When you have tank/marine in your berth, it's a 4th type of smallcraft that goes out and a...
