I use the "+" character. Not sure if that is necessary.

I have encountered this as well. It consistently happens after acquiring a discovered ship and then zooming in after it has been damaged.

Reverted to the previous version and have had no issues.

Thank you.

Will check it out this weekend.

<t> I bought DW on the day it was released.&nbsp; ROTS too.&nbsp; One of my favorite games. &nbsp;I finally had to quit due to the eye strain.<br/> I had hoped this one issue would have been resolved in this release. <br/> Maybe the next release will resolve this issue.&nbsp; I would...

Thanks Data.&nbsp; Good research.

<t> You can reach the default sort by double clicking any of the titles.&nbsp; Then close the window and when reopened you should have the default sort.<br/> I found first sorting a wider column to such as 'names' to see the little sort arrow and then double clicking to make sure the arrow vanis...

<r> Ashbury is correct.<br/> <br/> From the galactopedia:<QUOTE><s>[quote]</s> Planet Quality<br/> Note that each planet and moon has a Quality rating that indicates how habitable it is.

&nbsp;Yes, and saving the settings to the current customization folder would be ideal.

You can save the defaultOptions file in the 1.5.0.4 folder to another location(or possibly rename it, haven't tried).&nbsp; The 1.5.0.4 folder contains the savedgames folder.
You can then restore a setup by replacing the current defaultOptions file with the saved one.

I think i found your problem.

Sorry I couldn't help.&nbsp; Hope your issue is resolved soon.

Do you have ROTS installed too?
If so, do not install the original game into the Distant Worlds folder. Create another folder with a different name and direct the install there.

<t> I did some further research running the original game.&nbsp; This was never a feature in the game.<br/> In the original game you could not scrap mining bases at all (Except maybe through the game editor-did not check)<br/> I apologize for posting this as a bug.<br/> <br/> On the other hand y...

One or more, does not matter.

<t> I cannot scrap mining stations or gas mining stations from within the ships and bases screen (1502). <br/> These stations can still be scrapped elsewhere in the game on an individual basis.<br/> <br/> As far as I can tell, the scrapping of other bases works fine within this screen.<br/> <br/> <b...

<t> Elliot stated this was working as intended.&nbsp; All he is going to do is place the slider on the starting position when opening the tech level window.<br/> At least that is what he said in response to our Tech Support posting.&nbsp; Then again, I may be misreading his response.<br/> </t>

<t> All you can do is place the slider to a particular level and press the accept button.&nbsp; The entire tree is set to that level.&nbsp; I don't think there is a way of adding individual techs to an empire other than changing special techs in the "races text" file in a customization folde...

A build order link through the fleet screen would be nice.

Choose a fleet
link to the build screen
order ships
ships created in the area of the fleet's home-port
Built ships automatically join the fleet

Those times I need that kind of ship building control, I just revert back to building ships as I had before the expansion.
Ship Bases screen - spaceports - build at whatever port I want.

I would like to see fleet formations as being described.&nbsp; I would also like to be able to put a distance (or some sort of timing mechanism) between groups of ships within a fleet to allow wave attacks by a single fleet.
