<t> You've probably already discovered it but trade sanctions do stop migration (In Distant Worlds at least, not sure about the expansion.)<br/>
<br/>
Also, if you don't mind messing around with the editor, it's possible to remove unwanted species from your worlds so you can have a racially pure ...

I'll post a report of my own system tomorrow (if I remember!)
But I only have 1 monitor, so it's not multiple monitors causing it.

<t> I've had this problem myself of the cursor jumping to the top left corner (though less so it seems with the latest update, maybe coincidence), assumed it was a problem with my mouse so didn't bother to report it. It mainly seems to occur when in the game editor for me. I find I can resolve it by ...

I think they eat into your overall tax income,They give a minus GDP value and I think a minus tax value, but then again I rarely colonise lesser worlds

I think all you can do is impose a trade embargo, happy to be proven wrong though as I dislike having some of the species mixing with my Humans.

Humans mainly for me, nothing to do with their stats, just don't like playing a game as an alien species conquering Mankind, just doesn't feel right [:)]
No qualms about nuking a planet full of humans whilst playing humans though [:D]

<t> At what point will a independent world become a empire? is it population based, development level or sheer randomness?<br/>
Secondly is the population growth rate for independents wad?<br/>
<br/>
I ask because in a game I was wrapping up 30years or so in (in view of moving to 1.0.6), I ...

<t> Ahhh, yeah I see it now thanks, incidentally the shard fires once every 3.3 seconds, so good guess.<br/>
<br/>
So is it recommended to have a reactor output greater than Maximum Weapons energy per second, or a output greater than the combined energy used.<br/>
Eg 5Maxos blaster would use 60 ...

<t> So in the ship design screen a maxos blasters blurb reads: Energy used 12<br/>
But when I add it as a weapon the Weapons segment reads: Maximum Weapons Energy use per second 10<br/>
If I add another blaster Max weapons energy goes to 19, 3 blasters use 28, 4 use 37, 5 use 48 and so on.<br ...

<t> Basically reiterating what's been said but,<br/>
<br/>
After looking at your screenies, I see you have a total pop of 17.5 billion, your cap planet has 11 billion and is supplying 70% of your GDP, meaning there's 6.5 billion people spread amongst 34 planets supplying not much [:)].<br/>
As ...

<t> I see you say you've improved the distant settings for empires in the next version so I hesitate to make this report, but I just wanted to check something closely related.<br/>
<br/>
Starting a game with manual settings always seems to dump independent versions of a species near to an Empire ...

<t> Now I think about it I wonder if you miss out on spaceport income from not having any and just using the planets own two docking bays?<br/>
<br/>
As I said earlier I'll make a small design for most planets as I think each planet deserves some sort of port, also they can build the occasional ...

<t> I must admit I've never got that far into a game, but it looks too me like to many medium spaceports, near enough one for every colony, are you using the standard Ai design?<br/>
<br/>
Basically I have four spaceport designs, first very basic stripped down (1 shipyard, 4 docking bays, couple ...

<t> If you click on the game editor you can click a AI planet and it'll tell you GDP, corruption level and so forth, basically the same as your own planets.<br/>
And yes the corruption level does seem to affect the AI same as us, or at least it gets similar percentages [:)]<br/>
<br/>
You may ...

I like the fueling concept, no doubt the AI could use the help, but for me it's better than colonise a planet and automatically extend your ships range.
Perhaps state operated tankers that will fly out and top up your ships tanks.

<t> I agree if you can colonise ice planets then you should also get ice asteroids, I mention it as in the galactopedia it says colonisation of roids isnt possible. Though I understand the galactopedia isnt fully up to date.<br/>
<br/>
@Spacecadet I've a feeling Humans and everyone else for that ...

<t> Just realised I should of posted this here as opposed to the thread I posted in! Sorry[:)]<br/>
<br/>
Anyway...Was messing around with a fully advanced (full size/full Tech enabled from start) game last night to check some ships models I've picked up from the mods section and noticed I could ...

edit:Moved to tech support

<t> As has been mentioned in the update thread, I'd like to see a way of improving planet quality perhaps in lieu of terraforming, maybe a limited number of tech improvements could improve quality by 5% or so, so you couldn't take a 35% quality planet to 100% for example but maybe to 50/60%, so if ...

<t> Pretty sure I've seen this mentioned but I'd like the ability to choose which race can migrate to a specific world.<br/>
For instance as a Human empire I'd be fine with the Ackdarians moving to a newly colonized planet, but I wouldn't want rapidly reproducing giant insects moving there to ...
