Re: My one major gripe!

Have you tried placing the game files in the standard savegame directory. I know several pbem games have set up custom directories. This might solve the problem if that is the problem.

there is a solar collector facility for crystal. It works as long as there is a star in the system. When the star goes away (ie ringworl/sphereworld) the production goes away

Re: OUCH! PLANETS ANGRY. PLEASE HELP!

I guess you took the neutral happiness type. It has a little better natural increase for happiness but almost everything you do is negative happiness. Including colonizing a world, any battle in...

Re: Help this newbie; the docs for this game are vague

you might want to double check and see that you have no stray spaces or blank lines. SE4 is paticular in wanting a specific format for its data files

Re: Am I the only person who thinks the Emotionless racial trait is a bit pricey?

I think that this is due to the change in starting happiness level from jubilant to happy. I don't know if the racial point cost was considered with that change. So in a previous patch this trait...
