Re: Feature Requests

Additional sound options.

I have a system relatively close to my starting point that is covered with lightning and thunder.. and that thunder makes me want to tear my hair out, because its making a heck of a lot of noise unless i zoom ALL the way out. Only solution for me was to disable sound.

RE: Research in Distant Worlds 2

Different research bonuses will probably make some difference in how you end up going about it, but yes, if its just a "flat" bonus, then doing them one by one is a no brainer :)

Generally speaking, they announce things like expansions well before their release, showcasing new / changed features, and anything else that might be new (general engine upgrades, new races, ship classes, weapons, research, etc etc).<br/>

RE: Is construction slowed down in Legends?

I've only played Legends (bought game and both expansions at the same time), but months and months sounds strange. Have you checked your resources, you might be short on something that prevents the station getting completed.

RE: change these.

<r> Most "automated behavior" is severely messed up in that regard. If a ship goes to refuel, it will happily ignore everything in its quest to dock with whatever station it'll get its fuel from. It'll pass straight through enemy fleets shooting at it without shooting back... because.. well.. it ...
