Re: Ring and Sphereworlds

Lintman, I will tell you what my problem is. It is pre pubescent little idiots like you that spend more time trying to figure out how to cheat than to play the game correctly. That spend more time...

Re: Finite resources

I just thought of another question. My personal race has a 10 percent mineral mining bonus. Does this bonus even matter in a finite resources game?

Re: Ring and Sphereworlds

How much anybody would care how many turns it took you can also be a formula. X+Y-1 Where X is how totally useless and impractical what you did was. Which in this case is near optimum. Where Y is the...

Re: Ring and Sphereworlds

Yeah they are awesome all right but right before you get the ringworld tech you get the tech to change all the planets into your atmosphere which if you have any decent number of planets going would...

Re: FAQ...First 50 turns

I do ship construction first and get frigates for exploration. With extra supplies they have 5500. They are also on a one way trip as one of 3 things happen to them. They run into another race and...

Finite resources

I just started a new game with finite resources to see how things work. One thing I immediately noted is that instead of a value percentage for production of resources there is a tonnage of available...

Re: Ring and Sphereworlds

I am not sure how a ringworld could be a very effective defense considering the time it takes to build it. It certainly couldn't be built on the front line of a war. I would use cloak or suicide...

Re: Ring and Sphereworlds

I would be very interested in knowing about the resources. I bet in finite resource games there is a limit set for the system at the beginning of the game based on how much each planet starts with....

Re: Ring and Sphereworlds

Not to mention that for the cost of a sphere you could nearly build 2 ringworlds and get the 200 percent production bonus twice instead of once. Another point however it would seem to me that in a...

Re: Ring and Sphereworlds

Thanks for the info very interesting. However even with your change since both the ringworlds and sphereworlds can hold over 20B I still see no reason to ever build a sphereworld. There are more...

Re: Ring and Sphereworlds

Yeah but the ringworld costs 500K of each resource and the sphere twice that much not counting the cost of the shipyard ships or the cost of the facilites. Not to mention all the population you will...

Ring and Sphereworlds

I built one of each today but I basically postponed winning for a long time until I could finish them just to try them out. They are awesome structures but it seems to me highly unlikely that a game...

Research Problem?

Seems the top level of ship tech and fighter tech does appear to do anything. Is there something going on I didn't catch? Perhaps there is tech to be added?

Cloak question

I finished my first game to the end and have a question. The cloak tech blocks level 4 scans but level 4 scans are the highest. Does this mean it's impossible to detect a ship with a level 4 cloak?

Re: Space Port usage

You need one in every system unless it doesn't produce anything. For example if you just have storage facilities on all the planets.

Re: Ring World question

Ring World question

Just about to try to build my first ringworld. I got 11 shipyard ships now if I gather correctly I have to build 11 bases with the 11 components to build it on them. Can I build these all in one...

Re: Need to be able to move supplies between ships

That is pretty much what I do. I make ships with nothing but supplies and engines and the things they have to have and usually a shield generator and a point defense just in case they get attacked.

Re: Problem with Research Points?

Re: Need to be able to move supplies between ships

Yes that is what I have been doing but like you say not the best method but you can manage. Not very effective when you just want to bring in fresh supply ships and send them back tho. They go back...

Need to be able to move supplies between ships

Can make do without this but it would be nice. Not too many people posting they all are too busy playing the game to bother. I am going back to it myself. Great game.

Strategic battle problem

In my latest game had the problem of hitting strategic battle and my ships kinda swam around in a circle never going after the enemy. Twice the enemy was only a fighterless carrier and once a planet.

Can you change the defaults?

Is it possible to change the game defaults to your preferences so you don't have to reset them everything you start a new game? Thanks.
