thats about as big as or even bigger then a pretty well outfitted capital ship. lol...

<t> A resupply ship is more or less simply a movable self-refueling base. Given that it is about as well defended and shielded (at least originally) as a small base, can move around AND can refuel itself and any needy ships, its pretty much a cornerstone of any fleet and therefore, pretty much ...

i think a spaceport at every planet is pretty extravagant tho lol...

having at least one spaceport in every system is a good thing but one at every planet? I find the maintenance costs to far outstrip my profit.

btw i will update this compilation once i am able to try out the 1.04 patch so as to be able to accurately update whatever that needs to be updated ^^

yea that aspect that astorax pointed out doesnt make sense. utilizing galaxy wide resource values for the cost and maintenance of ships/structures shouldnt be right.

im not too sure bout this but i do believe that transported fuel is transferred to the cargohold of the station first and it refuels itself from the cargo?

<t> one problem that i thought might arise was if the automation updates all your designs every time a new tech arrives. While that is certainly a good thing which i think should be done, it does present the problem of retrofitting all your current ships to the new design which, if at late game ...

oh this is a little funky...lol

when u hit print screen u have to open an image processor like paint and paste it (crtl + v) in. It doesnt save images by default.

yea there was this suggesting on the wishlist compilation about having a visual economics graph for all that cost/profit calculations that enabled you to actually track what happened the past couple of years to identify trends/problems. I guess its a good time to implement it now

<t> hmm to put it simply, you want more player-controllable details about your worlds? Like how well are your people being fed, whether they have electricity or are drinking from wells etc...? Something along the lines of galciv2 maybe? where you could customize each world's economy into something ...

<t> you can view what happened via the event viewer. click the start button in win7 then in the 'search programs and files' box, type in event viewer. It should open an entire administrative window that shows you a log of every single thing that has happened to your computer. Your program freezing ...

oh yes....i like how the world destroyer is practically indestructible and i admire the possibilities that it offers that might help you reduce your in-game lag i.e. by directly reducing the number of planets present. Well done matrix games!

<t> actually, thats a good idea. create absolutely gimped designs for you escorts and destroyers (havent really seen much pirate cruisers yet) that have not only extremely limited weapons (like one blaster) but also a generous lack of armor, shields AND engines and enough reactors to power the ship ...

it should be implemented such that when a player switches government types, taxes are all automatically set to half of their original value as a buffer.

<t> In my opinion, individual aspects should have individual AI doctrines governing them and each and every AI would have a certain sort of minor link to another AI i.e. like the ship-building AI periodically checks on the economy AI to see if it has enough funds and income to support a new fleet ...

<r> i believe agriculture and mining belong in the same subset i.e. raw material extraction. Both are also commonly found as primary industries in the early stages of a countries economic growth, which is that of a subsistence economy primarily focused on utilizing and/or extracting resources from ...

will the fleet based troop loading command be present in the 1.04 patch? oh boy i sure hope it would.

oh ok. so i guess every one luxury gives you 10% development?
