RE: Shandar can't build Carriers

Did you research the tech level 3 fighters yet?

That is the tech that unlocks carriers, not ship sizes.

RE: Enemy Empire Reserved All My Steel

<t> A followup on the original problem:<br/>
<br/>
My own freighters also maintain reserved materials in the enemy empire, and they happily throw themselves into the enemy's waiting guns in the vain hope that they can get to and grab the reserved resources in the now enemy bases.<br/>

RE: New Player introduction

<t> Aggression is not the same as being good at war. [:)]<br/>
<br/>
It just increases the chance that war will happen, and the odds are good that the aggressive race tolerates ongoing war quite well.<br/>
<br/>
On the other hand you can have a passive race with tech advantages, who will prefer ...

Manufacturing Plants

<t> Do you need all three kinds to build something? - Or can, for example, a HighTech Plant build all items?<br/>
<br/>
I think I saw a post somewhere, where it was mentioned that they could, but they would build slower when making components of the "wrong" techtype.<br/>
<br/>
Can anyone ...

RE: Construction Ships on manual control

<QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Jake Hamilton<br/>

I have found in most cases that a construction ship almost always has to refuel before taking on a new project. It irritated me in the beginning to watch it haul off in another direction from where I wanted it to go. Now I just give the ...

RE: Maximum Colony Development Cap of 155%?

No one knows if ruins stack with wonders or not? :-)

What is the highest level of development you have achieved in any single colony?

RE: Modifying Fuel capacity and jump speeds.

<r> Except the current freighter AI does not know how to do pit stops. It will try to fly the distance anyway, and fly on empty incredibly slowly.<br/>
<br/>
Reducing the hyperspace travel speed will indirectly also increase fuel consumption, as the drive will be running for much longer before ...

Maximum Colony Development Cap of 155%?

<t> Colony Development is stated can be greater than 100%<br/>
<br/>
A bonus of up to 50% comes from population up to 500billion.<br/>
<br/>
Another 50% if you have access to 10 luxury resources.<br/>
<br/>
Ancient Ruins on the planet can give a bonus that stacks on top, up to 50%.<br/>

RE: Are construction ships too eager to build research stations?

<t> Well, assuming you take care of your actual needs regarding research capacity through other stations, then all you need on a research station is just 1 lab, and I usually put 1 of each.<br/>
<br/>
The bonus for research locations is Empire wide, so you do not have to have many labs in the ...

Enemy Empire Reserved All My Steel

<t> Hello<br/>
<br/>
I think I have discovered a bug.<br/>
<br/>
I had a neighboring empire that I was trading with, however due to his proximity we ended up going to war.<br/>
<br/>
However, the resources that his freighters had reserved in my colonies were not "released" when the war broke ...
