@Naselus: I noticed it working correctly after i started modding, and i didn't do that till after i opted in to the 1.1 beta patch. It's possible the break happened somewhere in the beta of course.

Hmm possible, i know i didn't look at blueprints till a while after i started modding, before 1.11 but either at the end of the 1.1 or after the 1.1 beta. It's hard to be sure which. If they did add it last minute to 1.1 then i guess that makes sense.

Browse to the GalCiv3.exe executable, hover over it, and it should say 1.1.12.0 for version 1.12.

I get this too, but I find going to a previous game save and carrying through can move past it. I have autosave set to every turn now.

• Battles are often out of synch meaning: the 3D battle and the ship status icons often do not show the same damage level. 0hp ships are often still shooting and being shot at, and the summary screen sometimes does not show lost ships correctly (it is correct though if the battle is replayed)
• AI does not seem to use diplomatic treaties most notably alliances. How would a trade embargo look like if applied against the player? Would the AI terminate the trade route? It might also be that the AI does in fact use these but they are not visible (with the exception of alliance)
• 10% bonus of planetary project seems odd on how it is used. So no matter how much manufacturing capacity is present it only applies 10%? That is what it looks like in the summary but does not seem a logical thing to do as in this case the player only has to have 1 point of manufacturing to apply the bonus and the rest is wasted
• Order Constructor button does not order basic constructor but the default one unless it is obsoleted. Maybe use two buttons?
• When AI requests tech - hover over the tech name could display the benefits (not a problem in case of trading offers)
• Is there any case when the AI is using a nebula? After quite a few games I have never seen it and all the ships just go around them like space-hills.
• Nebula effects are not readable as there is not enough space to display them in the fleet quick properties window

Can we please have a number next to each faction leader on the diplomacy screen indicating when we can trade with them?

Currently it is only visible that we are on a "cool down" when a conversation is initiated which results in a lot of clicking each turn for a couple of dozen races to check whom the player can actually initiate trade with. It is important to use each turn for trading when building alliances

CIV name is not displayed when an AI is requesting peace

Picture and background is visible but that is usually not enough to identify a CIV when there are a lot of them (The same pictures and backgrounds can be used multiple times when there are a lot of CIVs)

Here is another bunch, just let me know when I can stop :

• Carrier module spawns two small escort types fighters instead of assault fighters like mentioned in desc. This also messes with fleet movement as all the escort ships start right in the front line causing them to scramble right in the beginning in all direction (there are no fighter skirmishes before the large ships get to each other)
• Please do not have "Guard" mode deactivated each time a new ship joins a fleet. The command has been given to the fleet and the new ship is simply a new asset, the command should not have to be issued each time reinforcements arrive
• AI LOVES to spawn carriers but only if it is set on a minimum of gifted difficulty, otherwise there are no carriers to be seen in around 300 rounds - needs balancing
• If a ship blueprint is overwritten instead of given a new name two problems arise:
• Ships already produced of that type will have no ship icon in the lower left corner of the management window
• Shipyards will continue to produce the original setup despite the modification to it (and send out the new ships without the image like mentioned above)
• Shipyards are a great idea to reduce micro-managing but the current balance encourages to have a single shipyard per planet due to production mechanic - which the AI also applies already on Gifted difficulty. If the player is to keep up, the benefit of the yards is mostly lost. A solution might be to make them so expensive to maintain that no-one would dare produce them for the heck-of it
• Shipyards also cannot be upgraded with better Defenses. Can we have at least 3 tiers unlock-able via research? This would reduce the grinding of yard destruction. Yes, ships can be used to defend them but why produce ships even for this? We do not need to in case of star-bases yet these are more important and like mentioned above there are a LOT of them
• Military alliance research is not clear what it does. The player already researched Alliance at this point so what is the difference? It does not seem to be an independent treaty type but if it is applied on existing alliances then what exactly is its effect?:
• Does it force the other member to declare war on your enemies?
• Or only if you are attacked? (defense alliance?)
• Does it give additional bonus when fighting together? -Needs description and effect displayed in diplomacy window
