Used Points are shown when resources are transferred to units or between zones. In case of assets like mines that are inside your zone they produce directly to zone stock visible in items tab and then the zone stock is send out using truck station to SHQ so the used points goes from city not from ...

Zone's inventory contains public food only so they do not use it directly, but they consume food from SHQ sent for free. If you block sending it back to SHQ it may cause problems.

In your SHQ you had after sending to zones 4975 minus food for units 1183 so you end up with 3792 which is exactly what ...

Btw. There is a nice video about artefacts

The earlier answers are correct. I did a check and removed all irrelevant roads, I kept only rails and one road to the front line.

You can see that the 800 LPs contain supply for my units and they pick it from ...

I was wondering the same. In my last game, I built railhead near the frontline and truck station in the same hex.
Here you can see the rail going into the hex:

Idea shared initially by Battlemode on his YouTube channel. When you start a new game, after planet generation phase, you have to answer the 3 questions that affect your initial profiles.
It would be great to see what each profile gives you in form of a tooltip same as when you hover over profiles ...

What is your security council Covert Ops? I loose some spies constantly over time, but to loose all each turn sounds indeed suspicious.
If this is not a bug or your AI become conscious and exploit zones logic I would double check manual at 5.14.2.3. LOSING SPIES if there is anything that matches.

You may find this comment interesting https://www.reddit.com/r/ShadowEmpireGame/comments/l2agtx/comment/gk6fvj0/
It's about planet generation and they speculate what can affect GR equipment.
Also recent thread from this forum about planet generation history events https://www.matrixgames.com/forums ...

I don't think you can turn it off. Maybe you can try different planet history with less remaining GR technology.
Or you can change the strategy.
I remember similar situation with farmers having walkers, but when I noticed it I stopped my units and started diplomacy. Invested into good foreign ...

If your early nearby Minor regime is a Surviving AI then it may be tough as described it the manual 5.4.2.4. SURVIVING AI.
Looks like they don't attack if your tech level <4 so I tend to passively block them without attacking and even surround giving exit path to slowly push them back without ...

Thanks!

Hello. Right now Stuff council can discover and operationalize formation types same as Economic or Military councils discover and research techs . But the latter have a tech tree and the former has nothing. I know there is a kind of hierarchy for formation types so the game could show similar screen ...

+1, small change but useful. I was thinking about it after Nth load

this is great! Thank you

Thank you, it's very interesting what you say.

I've checked few of my leaders history and I've found such mapping between backgrounds and skills:
rogue - bribery
mechanic - demolitions
scientist - science, inventor
farmer -agriculture
enforcer - interrogation
community leader - oratory
trader ...

Thanks for your answer. This was my first thought but statistically there are too many successful skill increases compared to the % so I doubt it is it.
Update: after watching https://youtu.be/J1KDliJEYJk I think the answer above may be correct. The % may be tested more than once depending amount ...

Is there any information about how the initial background of the leader influences the skill learnings, liked job or stats?
I know that if a leader was a farmer he may be good as a governor or if he was a soldier he probably will like to learn military skills and work as unit commander. But this is ...

Metal is rare and I never had it close to the starting location but yeah it depends on planet and RNG. Usually you have to rely on scavenging and good governor to increase the output. My prospecting could discover metal level 1 or 2 in my zone. Later I could find better metal on next minor regime ...

Maybe it was because of your truck logistic assets? Thay consume some fuel to provide logistical points. You can check the oil drop icon with a number on top of the asset or use MNG>Assets and click the oil CONS cell in the top right table, it will filter all assets that are consuming oil. Btw. If ...

In case if zone events it depends on low zone statistics like described in the manual here:
5.3.16. ZONE EVENTS
Having certain statistics at low (or high) levels can have consequences in
terms of certain Events being triggered.

These fall in the main categories of Population Unrest Events, Worker ...
