Migration and Fuel Carriers

Right now those are the two things that are really limiting my enjoyment of the game.

Migration is completely borked, fuel carriers sit idle while ships limp home on empty fuel.

Fix this already!

Call fuel carrier button

There needs to be a call fuel carrier button.

The ship stops what is doing finds the nearest fuel carrier that isn't busy and calls the fuel tanker to itself. Otherwise this is so tedious.

Re: 1.0.9.8 Migration missions don't occur (Probably not a bug cause they started after population cap reached)

Early Migration does not exist. I watched and unless the planet is exceeding its population limit, they will not migrate. This needs to be fixed.

1073 Fuel Tankers still wont refuel my ships

I have 6 tankers sitting around with no mission.

My 1st fleet has run out of fuel and crawling home.

The Tankers sit and ignore the situation.

Maybe I could assign them individually. But I should not have to.

[1.0.4.9]Freighter ineffective auto design

The old freighter below has a empty space and available tonnage

Here is the added cargo space, same range, just put in point defense, missiles on a freighter doesn't seem to make sense.

Also if you put Point defense on the small freighter, it can also fit an additional ...

Re: Private Corporations

Thank you for the support. If an entity is profitable enough it could either expand and build mining vessels or reinvest capital in the general economy(put money into a massive pool for the creation of new entities)

Anyway it seems like a common sense approach to breaking the AI into smaller and ...

Private Corporations

I think the game would do better if the AI was split into multiple corporations. For example you build a resort base and that resort base is then transferred to a an in game entity. That entity owns and operates its one passenger ships. It goal is to bring tourist from and to the resort base. Each ...

[1.0.3.9] Gravillex being eaten by black hole

In the beginning the black hole will be surrounded by Gravillex. Slowly they will be killed by the black hole as my ships love to use it as a jump point and the Gravellix just run right to the center as they chase my ships and die.

[1.0.3.9] Cuprica not listed as a resource for colonized worlds and not demanded.

I cannot build space stations on colonized worlds. Three of the worlds I colonized don't list Cuprica as a demanded resource. The independent worlds I colonize or conquer have the resource listed. But any world I colonize with a ship does not list the resource. I zipped the file but It is still to ...
