Re: New player struggling

Andy, I'm a person in the same situation, and can say this is the VERY BEST forum ever. They have answered ever question I've asked (no matter if it's dumb or not!). As for me, I play my game until I...

Supply Ships

I remember seeing this topic some time ago, but can't seem to find it on a search. My question is, how are supplies divided when a fleet splits? If I have a ship running low on supplies, and it joins...

Re: Overall Strategy and Massive Confusion

Thanks to KDC for the good idea. After looking at the program you suggested, I found a shareware program that I think is great for this kind of note taking. It will keep notes and pictures in a tree...

Re: Well, I have no life....

I think all you guys are AWESOME! You concentrate on the good things you have, even though things aren't as good as you may like. For me, I have a fantastic job (firing rocket motors for a defense...

Re: Overall Strategy and Massive Confusion

Re: Print function for Map Editor

I normally use ALT-PrintScreen, as this only copies the current window, then open Microsoft Photo Editor, and paste. After doing the Negative function, I print. Use the fit-to-page and landscape mode...

Overall Strategy and Massive Confusion

I'm still in the process of playing my very first game. I'm at turn 130, with a small empire (51 planets), and only a couple of dozen ships. My problem is that, even though my empire is small, I have...

What is the calculation for research points per tech level. For instance, if it takes 10000 points to research level 1, how many does it take for level 2, 3, 4, and so on. Thanks!

Re: New features I would like to see>>>>

I like the idea of the history file. Who cares how big it is! 10MB, 20 MB, no big deal, I've got tons of hard drive space. Also I would like to see a command to output the current state of the game....

Re: Goodbye.

I think that if Smiloid230 is not enjoying the game for any reason, he should find one he likes. The end product of playing games is to have fun, and if he's not, he should move on to something else....

Fighter Groups

I know this is most likely very simple, but I can't figure out how to split Groups of fighters. I have 100 fighters on a carrier, and want to make Groups of 10-25 of them. How? Thanks!

Game Duration

Is there some report that shows the enemy ships that are currently sighted by my ships or in my systems. Not the enemy designs on the design window, but the ones in space.
