Sorry for the late reply.

I was playing with the current beta version. I have switch back to the latest standard and paths seems less extreme.

Fleet are still making some strange workaround (instead of direct line) for some systems but i think that it’s only with systems within green bubbles so it ...

I don’t understand the pathfinding, especially for fleet.

Even with 2 systems next to each others, they will sometime traverse all my territory, go trough multiple nebulas just to go from one to another. What should have take few days will take month if not years (ship will use all their fuel ...

There is a 2nd distance indicator when selecting a single ship - likely the single-jump range.

There is no way to view fleet engagement range yet, but it could propably use the same 2nd indicator - given that you do not get that range information for fleets.


Yes, something like this would be ...

Thanks lucos. That was part of the problem/solution. I actually successfully completed the game a couple of weeks ago (my daughter was married since then, so my attention has been else where [:)]). [:D]

<t> Hi!<br/>
Each time I cancel a treaty with pirates, the next treaty get more expensive. As Vardis said, first payment is always made when starting the contract. If you don't have enough money to pay it, they refuse the treaty. <br/>
I also had the case of pirates staying around after signing ...

<t> Hi! Actually, I had a similar experience in my last game. It happened 2 or 3 times until I found out the reason: one of my automated military ship was attacking an empire I was not in war with..<br/>
This empire had some military ships in my system and my automated ship tried to attack it. But ...
