Random Thoughts, Observations, and Questions...

Thanks Strategia In Ultima.I may have selected the auto button but I doubt it.

The excess "Current Total" was I believe from a Neutral accepting my request for their surrender. I must have received resources as well as the technology and planets.

I am building shipyards, and storage, and more research facilities. My net minerals per turn just continues to grow. It's now at 42807. My storage is at 494458 of 590000. I'm at level II storage and about to complete level II mineral extraction wich I began early. My total ships is only 58 (starting Light Cruisers now). My number of colonies is 17. My total space yards is only 20. It is year 2405.6 (stock game). I guess my empire is extremely affluent and worry free.

-----I assume that the Mega-Evil Empire function will be present in Space Empires V. Is it still quite drastic where everyone declares war on you? Even a neighboring weak empire that will be destroyed?

It would be better if the closer empires and those in good relations to you would slowly detoriorate relations with you over many turns.
