lol no it is not a quirk it is a feature [:)]

The framed resources are the resources that give a bonus to your race. Remember, planet bonusses are actually taken by the main race on the planet, not your Empires main race. But, the bordered resources are just a quick visual reminder of the bonus resources for your main race. Hope this helps!

Hi all!

I just started my first game, and something strange happens. All my starting military ships, and their designs, have no weapon. Also pirates have no weapons. Is it a bug as I suspect? Or a feature / game mechanic I don't understand well?

Thanks!

This is a known bug that has been posted several times already in the beta stage of the latest patch.

Version 17.0.16 has some serious issues. Sadly, the tech support section has received not much attention in the last months.

I can redesign my military ships, but will AI empires and pirates remain without weapons for ever? If yes, this version is unplayable. Or will they soon make new designs with weapons?
