Is there an option to auto-reinforce fleets? For example, create a fleet of 5 ships and set to defend a system. The fleet loses 3 ships. Can the construction AI now build 3 replacement ships at ...

Does your mod:<br/>
1. amend the galaxy map filter to remember the last selected drop down menu item (for example if I'm filtering for a specific resource)<br/>
2. allow a race's design templates to be reloaded after game creation (for example, say I want to switch from ...

Hi Roger, is there anyway you can have the galaxy screen view (hotkey g) remember the last selected menu options? It is frustrating when searching for resource locations to constantly have to reselect the drop down menu choices for a particular resource.

random number generation

The roll of the dice that determines the universe setup, within set parameters.

I didn't realise there was a way to filter for spaceports (or starbases?). How do I do that? The colony summary screen (F2) doesn't seem to have a column, or the galaxy summary (g) doesn't seem to have a filter either.

<t> I find the other race's regional capitals to be my main goals for conquest, because I can get a corruption free planet. I think I can also exceed the number of regional caps I can build that way too.<br/>

Is there any way to filter the map for planets with regional capitals? The galaxy ...

Also understand that the design template file is loaded when the game map is created. You can't change the design templates half way through a game.

<t> Any idea why the base game designs, and most of the game mods, put short range weapons In the design templates for bases? <br/>
<br/>
Is it because some races have short range weapons as a racial pref? Their research is therefore scripted for a short range weapons tech like beams. The base ...

Any opinions on putting shorter ranged weapons on bases? Are ranged weapons like torps/missiles/fighters always better?

.

<t> Ice, I noticed in a recent game that the AI puts short range weapons, like beams, on space stations. The bases can then get out ranged by enemy missiles / fighters.<br/>
<br/>
I've read through the weapons balancing thread in the original post and it doesn't appear to have a discussion on ...

Phuket, I enjoyed the AAR, thank you for posting it. It would be worth reporting the potential bug with the victory conditions screen. If not to the devs, then to the mod creator.

I'm looking forward to your next one. Perhaps try the RetreatUE version of the UE mod next time.

<t> I just play tested deleting my phaser tech. <br/>
<br/>
The DW ship/base designer still put low tech blasters on my designs despite my having high tech torps.<br/>
<br/>
Bing: I was trying to figure out how to still use the automated designs but change away from phasers, as I'm facing an ...

<t> Thanks Shark, thats explains what I'm seeing. So all the design templates are "locked in" at universe generation.<br/>
<br/>
My objective is to switch the automated designer from phasers to torps in my save game. <br/>
<br/>
I recall that the Distant Worlds design AI will select a higher ...

I'm not sure what you mean by "templates are loaded at start-up".

When I start the game and load my save game, the templates are not loaded at start-up.

<t> Is there a way to change the design templates mid game, and have the game use them? I tried copying over my race's ship design templates, which prioritise phasers, with another race's which uses torpedoes.<br/>
<br/>
I then restarted the game, and put it on 4x speed. No designs changed. I ...

I recall the optimised column directs the game to load player optimised designs from a dedicated sub-folder.
