I'm not so much worried about freighters, but much more about builders. I have to check those status once in a year and usually there are even over half of builders with "No mission" - status, part of those has even large cargo loaded what tells me that they were going to build something before ...

Luxury resources directly effect colony development. The more developed your colony is the happier your people are. The happier they are the more taxes they pay. Taxes from your population are the only source of funds for the private economy.

I'd go check out Scotts guide, he has a really handy graphic that shows the flow of money.

Probably a bug then

You need the tech for recreation centers, population transport, and small cruiser liners to build resorts. Double-check that you have all those.

The first research I take after skip drives is always the V2 construction yards. I'll then make a manual design and call it shipyard or dockyard and throw another construction bay on, doubling the amount of ships I can build for the inevitable que of private industry freighters that will be built on ...

I changed governments once to something that was in everyway better, just had a core colony declare independence, had a troop transport there within the month and took it back. Could be a bit more severe, like a malus decreasing over time as the government restructures.

Another useful overlay to help with Rss shortages, if you zoom out all the way to the galactic view, go to the mining tab and find the resource that you need, any planets with this resource will be highlighted with an orange circle to make it easier to send construction ships. Doesn't solve all the ...

Nice. How is that game running on your machine? Any performance issue?


I hadn't had to many issues up until this point, it is a 700 star galaxy, and unfortunately during the war I encountered a lot of crashing to desktop as I was zooming in and out rather quickly to manage all of my fleets and ...

Just want to say a big thank you to the devs and all those on the team that made this game happen. I'm having a blast!

It's finally time to launch my first real war, the mortalens have launched a savage campaign to my north against small underdeveloped worlds on my border. From their core world of ...

Thank you for the reply! This area seems to be taking longer than usual, 9-10+ years. I have heavily invested in the region, building just about everywhere I could. Only one or two systems have a stray building from another empire. At this point trade is starting to pick up and I'm seeing noticable ...

Hello everyone, I have a question about territorial border expansion. I am playing the cyan colored empire in the picture. When growing my borders initially it seemed I just had to have a majority of mineable world's claimed for the color to flip to my nation and deny other empires access. Recently ...
