Game_9816. Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the outcome of combat ships vs population transports encounter be latter's guaranteed surrender? Seems, it even generates different pre-battle notification. And once again auto-resolution of such an encounter (any of 2 notifications) at Vega leads t...

but the red/yellow ones? I dunno... related to hull or systems?

Yellow is your total system health. Red is your hull's structural integrity.

I've run into a strange behavior after in the r38790 build. In a battle the game crash with a crash handler message when fighters from a ship should launched. Thanks for the report Jeff. Looks like I messed something up when I was working on engine tweaks (trying to improve Intel UHD compatibility)...

If there are other players who report finding the Phidi frustrating to play against , maybe you should look into tuning them down, but I'm happy with where they're at from the perspective of a Phidi player. Yeah, AI's don't really play Phidi the same way a player does -- in particular, the AI doesn...

Ever get a chance to check on that? Sorry, got distracted :oops: The problem with our earlier math is that I misread how the Phidi trade route bonus works. I'd told you I though it added a 50% bonus to the max routes gained from other empires trading with Phidi, but, I was wrong. Whatever my intent...

I found a minor graphical bug in the current stable version (r38774): When I finished researching Bionomics I had a 3/4 planet that turned into a 3/5 planet. After the research completion the planet has now less lights and structures visible. I guess because the game now thinks it is relatively les...

That in turn means that their bonus to your trade cap will only be (66/223)*.1 = 3% (rather than the max 10% you'd get if their domestic trade capacity was as big as yours). Oh, wait, my math is wrong here. Our guess is that your domestic trade capacity is actually 146, so the bonus to your cap fro...

I'm seeing a bit in code where Phidi empires either give a bonus to the number of trade routes they give their partners, or get a bonus in the number of routes they get from partners, and I'm not sure what applies since I'm not sure what the scope of empire.species is here. Which is it? I believe t...

... checking the code against my game, I must not be following the code correctly. I, as the Phidi Combine, currently have 223 available trade routes, and have a reported bonus of 77 coins per turn from foreign trade from the 216 routes I am currently working. As I understand that, this means I hav...

I'm just curious about the nuts and bolts of the system, which aren't really explained anywhere. It's not really that easily explained in English. In code, the core bits are here: function Empire.trade_charter_routes(empire,other) local r = max(2, round | .35 * other.raw_trade_capacity) if empire.s...

I have it but it just not fun doing it. My own feeling about pop movement is that it's an important and fun part of the game in the early going, but, can get a bit tedious in the late game. Personally, once the game has past a certain point, I tend to stop aggressively optimizing pop placements, an...

yup. removing your old mods should fix the bugs.

I encountered a bug that's recurring at the start of the game when i hit end turn for the first time. I sent bug reports every time. This bug is happening inside the "EconomyAI" mod. In theory, turning off the mod should fix the bug. More than that, if the mod you're using is Harpy Eagle'...

Game_9487. Haduir declared war for "prosecution of noble Humans" before we (Gremak) had met them (Haduir). Next turn the same will do Orthin, also unmet. Contact with Haduir displayed standard first contact dialog, including option to declare (already raging) war. Suggest to either preven...

game_9489: Got requests simultaneously from the Ashdar Colonials and Humanity to declare war on and sever relations with the Tinkers. It proves that if you agree to sever relations with an empire you're now at war with, it sets you back to a state of peace! Can easily be verified, and is certainly ...
