Once again, the launcher option fails with a FTP problem. [:@]

No issues with the d/l .exe. [:)]

RE: Please Do Not Change Logistics System

It was a subtle conversation during the beta test that the game would not be dumbed down like many other "strategy" games... and Vic was always in agreement with that ethos.

I doubt he will change his mind. Don't worry.

RE: Anyone think end turn takes too long?

I think minors are an issue... I just started a game on Normal size, which generated 6 Majors and 32 Minors. That is 37 AI entities to calculate each turn... granted, Minors do not take that much power, but there is power in numbers [;)]

Small request: I think it would be a good idea to have a tool to raze unwanted or obsolete (in utility) roads or similar.

Yes, plenty of range. Automated, they just move inside the home system. Before last patch, they were working fine.
