I heard reports about freighters dropping the resources from salvaging, on getting a different mission.

I hope those are just teleported to the capitol. It would be confusing, but better then stuff just vanishing.


This isn't salvaging, these freighters are loading from a mining station ...

Ever since 1.0.2.4 the message system has not been working right. Instead of displaying the message fully open, it is always minimized and sometimes, does not give you the options you need to progress. I wrote a topic about this where the Ghost Fleet options do not appear and the AI randomly picks ...

Some transports are going into mining stations, leaving with 100 of a resource, then that cargo just vanishes, and the freighter returns to pick up another 100 resource.

I have attached a save file. Locate Abra Junction 5 Mining station, note the amount of silicon on board, next to it is the ...

Did not seem to have this issue before, but twice today my game has crashed as I was zooming in towards a planet. There was no space battles in this area, although I had been viewing a space battle earlier. I can not reproduce this reliably, it just happens after some time of playing the game. So I ...

Just started a new game and when the Ghost Fleet arrives, they do not send a message asking for the $20k credits. The result of the event fires randomly, I do not get the popup window asking if I want to pay. I've tried this three times, once the game automatically paid them, the other two times it ...

There is definitely a bug, or more than one. I have attached saves at the end.

ATTACHMENT 1 (and 1a)
I have a planet, Wurtal 1, which is a desert planet, best suited to Securan. When I go to the colony screen and click the Colonize button, a colony ship begins being built at Gurqi 1, which has a ...

No manual way to load them.
If the ship is on automatic and a colonisation is queued, it will usually pick a colony with a fitting population.
However, it grabs every population type from the planet - not just the actuall one that is suitable.


Exactly, this is the problem. It is not drawing ...

Have you read my post? The only way to control which pop get´s loaded onto a colony ship is to do it manually.

I read your post, but you assume the colony ship goes to a planet with multiple races, It does not always do that. if you read my example the colony ship went to my Homeworld which has ...

I think planets below a certain population are not eligible for Colonist retreival.
"This planet is still growing - do not start removing population. In fact, add population via Migration"

I would guess the threshold is at 500M.
That figure is used in a lot of places.


That does not seem to ...

Not 100% sure, but i think this is the way to build stations at new colonies. Go to the Policy Settings menu and open up the Construction tab. About mid-way down the list are options for the population numbers required before certain size space ports can be built. Adjust the limit so that its ...

I changed the game settings to save every 5 minutes, after having it set at 15 minutes. (The highlighted portion is where I had made this change.) Not only is it not saving every 5 minutes, the game is saving at completely random times. Even when it was set to 15 minutes it was just randomly saving ...

I think the problem is that when creating a fleet, the game design forces you into using the premade ship types (Escort, Frigate, Destroyer, etc.) in the left had fields. Instead, just get rid of the left hand fields. The right fields would be drop down boxes listing every active military ship ...

I have discovered a work around for this. When I select the colony, then set automation to manual, I see these negative values in the data field. So what I do is:

Click the tab that says Hide Unused Resources.

You then see a smaller list of resources, which should ...

I don't understand the suitability value as expressed in the tool tip. The Galactopedia says we should strive to colonize planets with 20 or more suitability, but the tool tip shows it as '+x' which means it is additive to..something. What does it add to?

No, the + symbol is just a sign, not ...

But the tax rate on your screenshot is 0%, so you have no tax revenue from that planet.

Of course it's set to zero, to maximize growth. The question is, when the pop is at maximum, will it pay for itself (after I increase tax rate, of course)?

If you hover over the planet quality in the bottom left, it should tell you the Suitability by race on that planet.

We plan to add additional warnings about low suitability in the UI as soon as we finish dealing with critical issues.

OK. File is attached
