Re: Control Update Bug

Hi Maxim

I only have one save file to upload, and it shows the second construction ship on its way to the moon to build the research station even though it has already been built. The save file is a little over 33 megabytes in size so I can't attach it to this post.

Please let me know how I can ...

I think I have spotted a bug in the control update version of the game.

I approved an advisor suggestion to build a research station at the moon near my home planet, and my construction ship went off and successfully built it. however, during construction of the station I received the exact ...

Re: 1.2.8.6 Beta Bug

Hi Maxim

Sorry for the late reply, but unfortunately, I don't have any saved games from that session as I have auto saves turned off and I forgot to make a manual save before exiting the game.

I'm very sorry that I'm unable to provide you with a saved game.

Kind Regards

1.2.8.6 Beta Bug

I've just recently had a situation in the 1.2.8.6 beta where I gave permission to have a mining station and a research station built around the same moon as each other. Both of my construction ships then headed out there as normal, but they then proceeded to build the two stations directly on top of ...

Re: Missing Sounds

Thanks for the reply maximKI

I'm experiencing these sound issues on both the stable version and the current beta version (1.2.6.6), I started my game on the beta version prior to the current one.

Austria-Hungary Strategic Advice Not Popping Up

Hello all

I've just recently started a new 1914 call to arms campaign as the central powers, and I'm finding that Austria-Hungary is not receiving the popup at the very start of the game where it gives the player Austria's strategic advice. In fact, I did not receive any popups for Austria at the ...

Missing Sounds

Hello everyone

Ever since I upgraded to my new pc, I no longer hear the sound of the Gravillax shooting its laser beam at my ships when they engage it in combat. I hear the screech of the Gravilax but not the sound of its laser firing. It also seems like certain weapon sounds are missing too.

Excessive CPU Usage

Hello all

I've just recently installed Distant Worlds 2 on my new gaming PC and I'm finding that the game is using roughly 50% of my CPU capacity right at the very start of a 700 star new game. As soon as I go from the main menu into the game proper, my CPU cooler fan goes crazy fast and loud as ...

Possible Save System Bug

When I open and close this game it uploads something to the Steam cloud, it can't be save game files as I have deleted all my saved games. If it's not uploading game saves, then what is it uploading?

Is this game supposed to sync other files with the Steam cloud apart from saves or is this a bug ...

Game Is Skipping The Launcher

Every time I start the game using GOG Galaxy the launcher keeps getting skipped and the game automatically starts instead. Has the launcher been phased out or something?

I am using the latest public beta as of the 30th of August 2023.

Kind regards,

Re: Artillery



Just a quick question.
For instance when firing from two hexes away is there still a difference between; minimize losses; limit losses; and ignore losses.

Distance is irrelevant. What matters is whether the artillery is bombarding (sans ground assault) or supporting an assault by ground ...

Three Ideas For The Future

Just my two cents but here are three ideas for the future that may help attract more people to the game.

1. A patch to fix the bugs with the previous patch, in particular the problems with the Steam version of the game as it's currently broken on install.

2. A more comprehensive manual that ...

Understood.

I hope they hire some more staff to help you out with this game one day Bob, I imagine it's a lot of work for one person to handle. At least you're still on it though.
