Are there any plans to fix the 'show me' function so it doesn't zoom to blank space? also it would be very helpful if when zooming to a ship in hyperspace it stayed at system zoom level so you can still see the ship. This "Show me" issue is usually that the location has not been propery l...

Looks like I have stumbled over another issue : Troops are only picking up 50% of rations, even when sitting on the SHQ for serveral turns: . 1.26k2_Troops0.5Food.png And yes, I have 1592 food available, and I have not run out of logistics. Unit card says "Received 1 food, requested 1 food&quo...

I have a true love/hate relationship with this game. Disclaimer - I'm terrible at it. But my suggestion(s) are: 1. Can we please rename our planets? Too many of my planet names look like random strings of letters. 2. The planet generation/regime generation seems broken. I keep playing on the beginn...

Did you look for all your construction ships? Perhaps one is hidden under the station. The mining station was retrofitting to the next blueprint but said "Under Construction" not "Retrofitting to X" so was confused. Stations should blow up if their construction ship is removed m...

Hi all, got the DLC, played a game and had Boskara as immediate neighbors. They got freakin' 36% to over 50% growth rate on their planets. Heck I am just bombarding one of their planets and its still growing by 33%. Are these numbers off, or plausible? I am slightly puzzled, and can't remember this...

Can someone check major regimes for me, whenever i select any, they all show green "peace" to me. It kinda looks odd because im pretty sure at least 4 out 5 of them would hate me even before we made contact. They used to start on "respect borders". That level where you aren't qu...

As for the nuclear warfare. Note that on easier difficulty the AI will be less likely to research the needed techs quickly. Also I wanted to say I hope along the line somewhere to improve diplomatics and also get some sort of rules in where all out destruction with ICBMs could be avoided, especiall...

The latest version, 1.26e, i dont know if something got changed about non aligneds but i think im starting to see a pattern in change of their behavior. Previously they used to walk out from the wilderness and walk into your territory. Now im playing a volcanic world map, and they basically stay in...

Returning to the game after a long hiatus. I remember one of the things that used to frustrate me was how freighters always appeared to make a run without filling cargo holds to capacity. Or were they? Now I wonder if they really are filling to capacity but we just don't know exactly what capacity ...

Does anyone know whats going on with this town? A few turns ago they started 'quiet quitting' in the private economy. Slowly stopped working, until we got whats in the screenshot. Now its a cycle of going downhill as they are not providing their own QOL anymore. I think it worked fine until they bu...

Also on the topic of making the game more accessible, I think the main issue is still the fact that the game doesn't clearly let the player know when there are resource shortages in a clear way. It regularly comes up on Discord and it's hard to explain people that their tanks don't have fuel becaus...

Currently, the logistics system seems to simply cut the deliveries of each item by the proportion of logistics points missing. 2000 / 7140 = ~0.28, so the logistics system delivers 68 food and 1932 ammo. yup The food vs ammo proportions are a little closer for simple infantry of course. But I'd be ...

I think such priorities should be made manageable by SHQ and OHQ settings where OHQ demands can override a general SHQ setting. For some OHQs in certain it might be needed to prioritise e.g. fuel over recruits or as said food over everything and so on. I would eventually also like to see to able to...

A bunch of people in the Discord server has mentioned that their troops are starving to death, not because the logistics are insufficient, but because ammunition is prioritized before food. Now, I know SE is not quite that granular, but if I was the logistician I'd prioritize it the other way aroun...

This is a interesting Extra Credits episode on how Culture affects game design:

Especially the part at 4:30 seems very fitting for Shadow Empires.
And "Victor Reijkersz" does sound pretty eastern European to me

I love these brilliant attacks ;-) Looks like they are following the Art of War "Attack where your enemy is weak". Can't be weaker then having 0 forces! The ones that get me is the disastrously executed attacks, where somehow despite attacking an opponent with 0 ships, they still manage t...

I don't care why they where on the planet when the Dissolution War happened. Games says "Keep in mind that over 262 years have passed since the Dissolution War started" ... how the **** did those arachnids survive for so long on a planet that is A) too cold for them to walk around outside...

3 problems I'm having in my latest playthrough: I have an earthlike planet at 4.25AU: -31°C median temp. Very dry planet with 2% ocean and 3mm rainfall. Yet, the whole map is covered in snow which mean "Water Lvl 9 umlimited" ... and the map generation places "Water Deposits Lvl 8 20...
