Re: Randomised technology tree feels punitive

I had to start over from my 20+ hours save, because I was stuck with tier 1 government tech while I was already investing in tier 4 stuff. I had over 50% corruption across my colonies and there was nothing I could do about it(none of the factions had it either). Couldn't think of a more game ...

[Possible bug]Planetary government tech won't go past tier one

I'm currently playing as humans with non-fixed & randomized research settings. About to research tier 4 stuff(Year 2826), yet my governmental tech is still stuck at tier one. Tried spy-stealing but not a single faction has this tech neither. I'm told that this shouldn't have happened, thus the ...

How do I unlock more planetary government tech?

I'm playing with hidden and non-fixed research settings, mid-game now but the most advanced planetary government tech is still 'Planetary Governance(tier 2)'. What are some ways to discover it? I tried spy-stealing but none of them seem to have ...

Could someone please explain what 'Trace Scan' and 'Shield/Armor bypass' mean? Thank you


For details like these, you should look up the component in the galactopedia. It's usually explained there.

Shield and armor bypass is a measure of how likely it is for a weapon to ignore shields or ...

I can't figure out why my tankers ain't refueling my fleet, neither auto nor manual setting would work. All they do is RTB to the nearest port when running dry.

Any advice? Thanks!

Fighting with the tankers myself. They seem to ignore all fleet orders, including movement.

Re: DW2 FAQ/QnA megathread - Ask your question here!

How do I find out the maximum size of ships my spaceport can build? I just researched 'Interstellar Destroyers', but it isn't shown on the build menu. So, I assume it has something to do with that?

#Edit: Problem solved, had to add the new hull design from the ship design menu.

It would be nice If we could have an additional option for explorers to prioritize planets over asteroids.

Re: Auto-exploration

I was going to post this exact issue, but I just read that automated explorers would ignore asteroids If we don't equip them with resource scanners. Haven't tried it yet myself tho.
