A question regarding fuel tankers: do they require cargo bays or fuel cells to store fuel? There's nothing about it in the Galactopedia, but the automatic designer puts several cargo bays on them.

They need 1 fuel cell and cargo bay.
They can move fuel from bays to tanks, but only do so around ...

Does anyone else get the game settings reset on every GFN session? IIRC, for the paid tier, the settings should be persistent; at least they have been in some of the other games I've played.

A good habit to develop is to regularly check the Exploration tab for the status of your explorers and the Construction Ships tab under the Ship Construction tab for the status of your constructors. It will tell you what they are doing and if they are idle. I regularly consulted the corresponding ...

+1 for individual ship queues from me too. The early game is more fun when you feel you are directly involved with exploring new planets!

Also, not sure if I'm just missing the setting for it somewhere, but it would be nice to get a notification when an explorer set to manual has finished surveying ...

Just a flavor thing, but it would be more immersive if all planets in the starting system had unique names instead of being labelled sequentially. Curiously, if the homeworld is a moon, any sister moons currently do come with unique names, but the planet they're all orbiting still carries just a ...

Oh no lol, this just doesn't end...

Woot!

Sorry to be pushy Erik, but have you heard anything from Nvidia yet? Was really hoping to be able to play this weekend, and Nvidia's customer service is of course mum beyond the rote responses.


We reached out to them and heard that there was some kind of delay on their side. While waiting for ...

The Matrix version is not available for Steam orders I guess?

And yes, the random tech tree can really shaft you. I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing though. Roll with the punches, etc.


It seems the randomness should be at least somewhat bounded by race (and maybe government). It'd be strange to play as a commerce-and-diplomacy oriented race and ...

Thanks, Erik!

Well, it has been 24 hours, but the game is still not on GFN. Given that all the other new games they added this Thursday seem to be working, could this be an issue on Matrix's end?

AFAIK, GFN has its own savefile cache, so you don't really need Steam savefile sync.

Was in contact with Nvidia support; they suggested to wait 24 hrs.

How soon will the game be available there?

A manual or just a copy of the Galactopedia would be nice though, even if it's just a draft, given the complexity of the game.

Yes please! 9-12 US EST sounds good for us Europeans too, would be around 15-18 here so we'd still have time to play!

I'm sorry if this has been covered already, but will cloud saves be available? I bought the game through Matrix and prefer not to use steam, but will if cloud saving is available since I play at home and on my work computer.


As a workaround for the time being you could use GeForce NOW cloud ...
