This is a great patch with the sphere range,colonisation range have really helped mold gameplay to my liking.I hated messy borders so I am very happy with this.Same with the new design system that is no longer wasting my time fiddling with private ships.

A longer term issue in my view is the economy in mid game onwards.Later game economy is crazy big.Ships,planet buildings and super projects should be much more expensive to purchase and scale to map,planet size.You basically have a zillion moneys and it kills strategic choices in gameplay.Maybe a options slider this too[:)]

+1

For now it's impossible to destroy your economy. I remember my old game where I found debris field and began to repair ships in it. Then I got a huge shortage of cash and as result lose my game. Other example. I wanted to begin a preventive war with other empire. Began training troops. But I ordered them too many and my economy went to hell. Remember this situation with nostalgia.

As for me it would be useful for gameplay to implement some punishment for zero skills in economy planning. Not only impossibility to build a new ships or stations but decreasing available troops, abandoning ships/stations, impossibility to repair ships, stopping science researching...

they are enemies or they are friends ?
If they are friends they maybe got a defence pact with some enemy of you thats why they are forced to trade sanction you, but your relations are still good enough with them so they keep the good things up and made you a gift.

If they are realy an enemy that dont make a sense you right.

I never used the word "friend" anywhere in my post

Also I don't know why enemies which has a trade sanction against me would give me Monetary Gift? So they want me to pay them to Lift Their Trade Sanction but will gift me some money too? I don't think that makes sense.

Another CTD with snapshot and now I can't load any of my saves.

+1 to balancing the economy to scale with larger empires. I keep getting obscene amounts of money. No fun at all. I understand this could be very difficult to tweak, so perhaps make some values moddable? We'll figure out the rest ourselves

More bugs found...

Fleet when retrofitting will forget its original orders. A fleet which I ordered to patrol one of my border system which had no port yet, decided to retrofit because its on auto-retrofit and after it has finished with the upgrades it then decided to just stay at the port where it conducted it's upgrades.



Weird bug where my empire has asked me to remove my ships from my own territory. So I went to check what this was all about and was able to trade techs with my own empire. So to test it out more, I declared war on myself. Now my populace is angry that I am at war with myself? Happiness went down across all planets.

Now I keep getting messages to remove my forces away from my own territories. Strange...

Sure hope they fix that fast!

Bugs should be posted in the tech forum.I am not sure Elliot looks at the main forum much.

That's it for me, it's crashing too much now. No more beta testing till next patch update.

I have been using Legends 1.7.0.10 patch for several days now, problem free. Perhaps you are using an old save game file or alternatively something on your machine like the antivirus or insufficient memory is causing problems. Remember that a large map needs 2 GB of FREE memory, not 2 GB of hardware...

Let's see...Beta Patch

So it must be perfect.

Any reports about possible problems must be the beta tester's fault. Obviously it has to be anti-virus software causing all those problems. Must be. Blinders and earplugs back on....lalalala

That first bug you posted (about the second copy of your empire) happens when you add a new empire with the editor. It doesn't always double the players empire, but some empire always ends up cloned when you add a new one (At least in my games).

Gets some advice

Responds with rude snark

Time to see if that green button works I guess. (for the first time on this forum).

I have never added an empire to any of my games. I have never come to the point where I am the dominant force that I have to add other empires. I make it so that when I start, my empire is the weakest one there is. Surviving is my early goal and adding more would make it even tougher for me.

I have been trying out some strange strategy to see how the game handles it which could be causing the problems.

I have been adding fighter bays in frigates, gas mining stations, mining stations and defense bases. I then build defense bases on each planet that has my GMS/MS with one frigate to defend it. So each one GMS/MS has a lot of fighter cover.

Maybe this is the problem. If it is then I'd like to see it get fixed because I kinda like this strat.

It looks like this beta has been pulled for the upcoming new beta?

The new v1.7.0.12 Public Beta is now available. Please see the first post in this thread, which includes the updated change list.

Regards,
