Can this glitch be fixed with the editor?

But yeah razing/abandoning colonies definitely needs to be a thing. Let us wage a scorched planet campaign if we wish.

I'm sure the devs want tankers to refuel ships that are creeping along, it's just a matter of working on it, and getting it to work.

Is there any point in having tankers in a fleet? I thought that would be smart, but they don't seem to do their job. In fact last time I played a found one of my fleet tankers way across the galaxy instead of being with the fleet.

I'm having the same problem with Terra. I think I manually sent a ship with humans but will try again.

The colonization range is set only at the beginning of a game, correct? That seems odd, seems like something the tech tree should affect. But I do understand why you wouldn't want the AI to sneak ...

My rule of thumb is to always build one unless there are only tiny amounts of common resources. It seems like sought-after resources have a red box around them, I always build in that case.

I've ordered (constructor, exploration?) ships to gather them before and I see the crystals in the cargo for the ship, then what? Have it dock at any spaceport?

Usually after starting a new planet I just wait a bit. By the time I go through my exploration ships, fleets, and other planets making sure everything is ok then the materials will be present on the new planet to build a spaceport. That would of course depend on whether you have any resource ...

Yes, Not Yet, Not in thousand years, Never and shoot the advisor who came up with this

That's actually about what I'd like lol. Maybe add 1 year and 10 years in there.

Best tip I've seen so far is to warp them into the other side of the system from the enemy, let them all arrive then issue a move command. This will be easier if/when we get queued movement commands.

This looks really good, I'm hyped!

The game runs at about 1 sec = 1 day at 1x speed, so at least for some planets they should be rotating even faster lol.

Love it when games have multiple solutions lol. "Here have this free state-of-the-art exploration ship. Just one little catch, it's stuck in an ion storm."

Yeah it's sort of realistic that a ship might run into something new and unknown that would disable it, but at least let us abandon it and not keep paying for it. Also if it can move the AI should be able to fly it out without it reverting to No Mission over and over.

I flew a military fleet into the system and IIRC I got a bunch of pop-ups saying the ships had been added to my fleet. Keep in mind if you don't need all the ships you can scrap at least some of them and you might learn some technology.

Definitely another vote for queues, when I'm manually controlling a ship it would definitely be useful. Could also queue movement orders to have a fleet approach enemies from a certain angle without issuing every change heading command real-time.

I tried to get into DWU and could certainly appreciate the game, but I personally couldn't get past the UI, graphics, and 2D overhead view. It's just me, I need my space games to be 3D. I could see that DW2 would appeal to me more, and I've been playing it since release on Thursday. DW2 is beautiful ...

Awesome, the purchase confirmation email had said I would be emailed when the game releases, I somehow assumed the Steam key would not be available until then.

From "My Page" I got the code and redeemed it. Steam says the game releases in approximately 1 day 22 hours, which would be about 10 AM ...

Release date less than 2 days away! If we purchased from Matrix what time (EST, UTC or something) should we receive our Steam key?
