Re: Does anyone know the formula SEIV uses to calculate score?

Well, I couldn't get them up by turn 50. All but one or two will be done by turn 90, so I won't be able to max them out. That's why I picked them over the sphereworlds. Of course, I can max out a...

Re: Does anyone know the formula SEIV uses to calculate score?

Well, glad to hear you have time to start a new game. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon12.gif I've been working on my current one for over a week, and I've just hit turn 80. I'm...

Stop that! You can't make me feel guilty, even if you add depriving your wife of both dinner out and a trip to the movies!

Ok, maybe a little guilty. ...

Re: Pop Bonus Problem

Well, that's where you'd get kicked up into modifier 21's bonus. Maybe it doesn't allow more than 20 modifiers? Shouldn't be that hard to test.

Re: Armor, Shields and Damage (FAQ)

I don't know that I'd have it randomly pick a component with each hit, since that would be a big change. I'm not sure it'd would've been a bad design to start with, but changing it now...

I don't...

Re: Worker culture on strike?

Well, I justed tested that, and didn't get an increase in construction rate between workers and artisans. Unless I misunderstood what you meant, that's not it. Besides, there's a separate modifier...

Re: Does anyone know the formula SEIV uses to calculate score?

Well, at least the issue with how ships affect score isn't really going to matter for the contest. Without a doubt, resource generation is what you are going to need to win.

Re: Armor, Shields and Damage (FAQ)

You actually wouldn't need to track partial damage to components outside of combat, so you wouldn't constantly need to store that information with the component, increasing its size everywhere in the...

Re: Worker culture on strike?

No problem. Regardless, I'm not getting that extra 5% bonus, so I'm assuming that it's broken. Thanks.

Re: Armor, Shields and Damage (FAQ)

Wow. Great work checking out the guts of combat, Zanthis. I really hope they can change things so that partial component damage is remembered specific to what initally got hit. That would take...

Worker culture on strike?

I thought picking workers for a culture was supposed to modify your production +5% (ie resources, since scientist=research).

Is this broken, or does that 5% really modify something else?

Re: Is Space Empires IV Worth Buying?

Modifiability. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: feature adds

You could always change the size of ringworld/sphereworld components to fit on a baseship, or make a bigger ship size.

Re: Counter Intel Projects

I like the idea too. Maybe next Version they could swipe a page from Stars! SG, and have a pool of spies that anyone could hire from with attributes that improve & stuff.

Re: Athmospheric modification/Gas Giant/No athmosphere

Since none of the default AI races has 'none' for an atmosphere, I don't see why this is a big deal.

As far as players are concerned, if you choose a race that lives in no atmosphere, and you use...
