Reply to RTS Battle Mechanics and Ships in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Frogboy has created a very lively discussion about ships, fleets and tactics. In many ways, I agree with everything that has been said in this thread. However, in order for the game to be playable on a wide spectrum of systems, there will have to be a limit as to what can be included. I am all in favor of using fleet organization - it will make this a much improved game. Personally, I like the system employed by Space Empires IV. Ships can be added to fleets. Within fleets you can also c

I liked what EvilleJedi did for his Star Wars mod for Homeworld 2. In it, bombers would launch a salvo of rockets/missiles, but wouldn't be able to do it again until they docked and relaunched. I like that idea. Or if not a single salvo, certainly a resticted limit before having to re-arm.

Before going any further, I would like to say that this game has the makings of a great game - keep trying to improve it. My following comments are attempting to be constructive, but I don't necessarily have answers or suggestions for all of the situations. I also still have Stars! but have not played it in a while - yes, it is a very good game with some very good game play ideas. Phaselanes/space lanes - I completely understand everyone's arguments both for and against them. H

Pause issue in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

If you pause the game, then select the Reasearch screen option, the game "unpauses". Is this a change in the latest release ? or a bug ? Yorkie43

First off, I agree with the majority of the people that say this has the makings of a great game - please don't screw it up. The "Load Game" screen when in single player mode has the scoll bar going up out of the screen to the top edge of the monitor viewing area. I had 2 saved games and was reloading one of them.

Reply to 1.0X patch in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

I'm also having a problem / confusion with the latest patch(s). The new patch shows as 1.0x.09. When I download it, the next patch shows as 1.0D1.008. If I download this one, it then shows 1.0x.09 as the next available patch. The cycle continues from one to the other. Anyone seen this problem? What is the correct sequence of patches? I have the preorder special edition with the extra stuff. Thanks

1) If you display the planet list immediately after a United Planets vote, your income displays as zero. Everything else looks ok. 2) Have an example of the Altarians surrendering to me without my knowledge. The game autosaved and everything was ok. I then saved the game as a backup copy - just in case. I then loaded my saved game copy and found that the Altarians had surrendered to me. I still have the 2 saved games if you need them. 3) Destroying a shipyard while it

Reply to SAVE KILLING BUG! in Bug Reports Stardock Forums

It seems that I read in another thread, that if you have been making ships obsolete, then that might be your problem. Something to do with what the game has and what it thinks it has.

Reply to Beta 4: BUG REPORTS HERE in Ideas Stardock Forums

I created a separate post for these, but I'll add them her too:- Beta 4c has problems loading saved games. I installed the latest version and started a game from the beginning. Saved and loaded OK a number of times. However, today, none of the saved games would load - not even Autosaves. The Domestic Stats panel of the Domestic Policy screen shows a six digit number for Misc. income. After an Autosave, game does not always find completed projects - there is
