Manual research has never prevented automatic ship upgrades...

It fixed itself after a few re-installs and purging of the game files. [&:]

It doesn't work in Vanilla either. I start a new game and rush for energy collectors - When it finishes I am given the chance to upgrade all of my stations for 0 credits.

Or in other words - No upgrade at all.

Like I said - The only mod I use that alters gameplay is the Extended Races mod. Everything is purely interface and visual image replacements.

And as for Extended - I grabbed the newest version fresh a few days ago from its thread.

<t> Right so I am getting back into the game - Quickly downloaded and merged my usual mods (Extended races and some interface and visuals only), and I quickly noticed that the game doesn't actually attempt to upgrade the default ship designs at all.<br/>

No solar collectors, no basic ...

Edit: Turns out it will run if you re-install it enough times and force-reinstall everything it depends on.

I'll leave the thread as is in case someone googles their way here.

Or you know - Just type in %appdata% and Windows will take you to the Appdata/Roaming folder fast and easy.

I was also experiencing this, and wondered if it was due to my Documents folder being on a different drive to my C: drive?<br/>

Anyway, I fixed the issue by manually creating the game settings folder, i.e. \Documents\My Games\Distant ...

You'll have to place the new planet in the same rough orbit (distance from the star), edit it to match the old one, and then delete the old one. [>:]

You could build some facilities to add to the spawn chance. Same with scientists (different facility)

hmm... no no, we're not killing the planet, just us (and a lot of others species). The main issue being, i think, overpopulation.

Quite the opposite - We're naturally counter-populating.

I don't think you can add new types of planets to the game.

Exactly the point I was making - Stating such a claim is entirely useless because of how we decide to set apart species and genus in various ways.

Humans are no in way or shape dominant on this earth. We may rule it, but not through numbers.

Now you are just making a case against virtually all mods. So let's go shut down all mods...

Just ignore his childish quips. He's obviously trying to get off on it and nothing else.

You need to cancel their current mission first.

There is no such tech - Aside from the Resupply and Carrier ship roles, the rest of them are exactly the same. The only difference is that the game has pre ...
