The game needs a relatively new version of Microsoft's Media Player to play music, I think the required version is 11. If you're on Windows XP you may have an older one. <e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>

RE: How do I see an overview of everything built at a colony?

<r> Yes, I assumed they might be items I just hadn't researched yet. Still a shame about the lack of a colony overview that gives all of the info in one place, though, as that would really help with enjoying this game more. I've got all the music files and can play them on their own, looks like I'm ...

How do I see an overview of everything built at a colony?

<t> Hi all, newbie here.<br/>
<br/>
I want to able to see what is built at a colony - defensive bases, research centres, etc - but can only find a screen which gives me a breakdown of each type across the whole empire. Is there a screen that shows them per colony? I assume I'm missing something ...

RE: Commander Mortality in Detailed Combat

I voted for 'please let them die less often', but only just. I think it only needs the slightest of tweaks to meet my exacting standards ([;)]), so I wouldn't mind too much if it stayed the same.

RE: v1.2.14 Limited Beta Posted

I think all the colours are a bit too startling at the moment, to be honest. They are certainly a lot clearer than the old colours, but just a bit too bold, IMHO.

And is there no Undo for development mistakes? [:(]

RE: surrenders

<t> A running total is kept at the bottom right of the Treaty screen, such as '1500/5500' meaning you have another 4000 points to 'claim'. This changes as you create each proposal, so any you are not happy with can be altered or removed. What's your definition of 'nothing serious'? I would have ...
