Hi,

this is a repost from Discord server. I didn't get an answer there and I am hoping somebody here would know how exactly trade works:

I came upon this when I tried to decide if there is any point in upgrading commerce centers if my only trading partner has free trade agreement (FTA) with me ...

Hi,

I have hard time understanding what exactly is going on with trade. Can you help me fill in the following use cases?


1.) No trade agreement, no commerce centers.

My freighter selling 1000 credits worth of cargo at opponent's spaceport.
My state gets:
Opponent gets:

For manual fleets there probably should be a command like, refuel from own tankers. It should work like a movement order where you order the fleet to a spot and then the fleet to refuel from the fleets own tankers. An alternative to the refuel order.

I find that I often have to manually tell ...

Hi,

I want to get build suggestions only about mining stations and research stations, but not about resort stations of defense stations. How can I do that?

In one of my games I had a huge empire with zero tourism. I had a decent scenery bonus and a lot of people to go sightseeing. Other empires were making big money. So I went bananas and researched everything I thought could be connected to tourism - passengers, bigger ship, better drive - you ...

Tip. You always need more Caslon.

Oh, I assumed the production part is accurate. Thank you.

Hello,

I came upon a very strange Caslon shortage and I would like to know your opinion.

According to Resources window the mining rate is 14.00/s.
Each mining station produces 14,4/s (16 -10% = 14.4). However I have 3 mining stations and all are fully operational. I have tested this over a span of ...

Hi,

I would like to get rid of certain message types. Is there an easy way to do this?

I would like to not receive any prompts about building resort bases or defense bases, but get them for science bases or mining bases.

I checked out mods on Nexus and Steam, but none seem to be doing this.
The ...

Hi,

I am a bit late to the party, but hopefully not too late. ;)
When I looked into this, my theory was: Fighter vs Fighter weapons should be the ones with high dps. They don't do that much damage, but their overall damage is high. This works very nice against ships with low damage reduction ...

Thank you!
May I deduct if from the fee you charge for your guide?

Hi,

after watching the Scott's and DasTactic's tutorials and reading the manual, in-game help, Scott's guide and Nightskies' guide I had some questions about things not covered there. Overall it took me quite an effort to google them, or figure them out. It's nothing you can't do on your own if you ...

Thank you very much, Nightskies! This is exactly what I wanted. Plus there's a ton more! Pity Google didn't pick this up, more people should know about it.

I appreciate the work you put in, for us. Thank you.

Hi, I am making a little weapon overview for myself as to find the places where each weapon type may excel. This was due to the fact that from what I saw, high dps / low per hit weapons perform very poorly and anything that hits high per hit is a king. Especially Reinforcing swarm battery seems ...

Hi,

my tourism fell off to practically zero. All of the routes go to the capital according to the arrows on the map, but there is 0 revenue listed in the budget sheet. I believe it used to work just fine in the beginning. Can you tell me what's wrong?
