Re: Attacks without war?

My economy was better than theirs so I quickly replaced my fleet and beelined some tech improvements, after which they stopped pestering me. I didn't really want to war with them because I didn't have any invasion fleets with which to recapture any colonies they managed to snipe, which in my ...

Re: Retrofit path woes in new betas

I actually feel it has gotten worse in 1.1.0.0 vs the previous beta. In my experiments today I tried so hard to maintain an upgraded and basic SSP for my main vs new colonies, respectively, but no matter how hard I tried, all the SSPs would soon end up with the same design (yes I confirmed the ...

Unselectable and buggy design selection for upgrade path [1.1.0.0]

Hello,

I am trying to maintain 2 SSP designs with the same hull but the new retrofit path selection is fighting against me at every turn (this appears new to this latest beta; the previous beta from last week did not have these issues in my experience). In this particular case, I believe I have ...

Re: Attacks without war?

I also find this pretty annoying. In my last game the boskarans kept attacking my fleets and planets, and even managed to wipe out my best fleet (the AI seem remarkably capable at keeping up with my military strength, quite scary actually!), all without declaring war. Now my reputation is in the ...

Retrofit path woes in new betas

I love the new ship design retrofit paths but I still find myself constantly fighting against it. The problem is as follows: if I have a design called "Nugget", and another called "Chipmunk", both for the same hull, one specializing in close combat and the other in standoff, and I use the upgrade ...

Re: 1.0.9.8 Public Beta Update Available

Loving the update, but I feel the leader change events could do with some tweaking. In my current human military dictatorship run I've had 3 coup d'etat in the early game alone; during the first I lost one of my 3 colonies to rebellion, and on the third I was down to single digit army strength ...

Vassals almost immediately declaring war on me after subjugation [1.0.7.3]

Twice I've beat down my Ackdarian neighbors and subjugated them, but both times within a short period we are at war again, and they are claiming that I broke the defense treaty. I am absolutely certain that I did not order an attack after the war ended.

I did not ask for a defense treaty, and can ...
