I'm having tons of fun and each time I turn it on I learn something new. I believe it will take a good 5 to 10 games before I truly understand let alone expect to win at any setting. But I am having fun, everything is making sense (Some of my choices aren't but I am learning from them)and I am enjoying it. Thanks for the Posts they do help out as lot when I check in and get a chance to read them I have had many times where I go "Oh that's how it works" I have frequented the FAQ's (Which I downloaded and put in Word Form and Hyperlinked everything so now searching them is much easier) along with a lot of sites that show up in them and in Posts on the forum. I figure by my 5th game I will be making informed and reasonable decisions instead of my irrational ones I am making now because of my "what would happen if I do this" mode I am in.

Anyways thanks and look forward to the next thread or email.

JLS:

Which, if any, of you AI's files might be able to be retrofitted into a Proportions AI? I have quite a few race styles with no AIs and I'd like to have races with some personality rather than simply copying and renaming some files from an existing Proportions AI.

At a guess, Speech, Anger, Politics, Settings might be transferable. Is there anything else that might be or are there any pitfalls that you know of that I should avoid?

Thanx,

Talenn

Sorry, all Primary AI files 'Anger, Politics, Settings' and most others AI files. Will have little to NO positive effect in currant Proportions 2.53. For very many reasons.

However most BASE se4 MODS. With AIC Race 'Anger, Politics, Settings' files {may} help that AI be a little more responsive. This, however may give results, beyond that designers intent. For Very many reasons.

Note: AI Campaigns: AI Design files, and All AI construction files also incluisve most minor AI files will not work with any Current Mod. This also applies to most of AI Campaign Data files as well.

Some info on the game I am playing

At this point no. The Zynarra are separated from my home system by a system I took control of. This system has a warp point that leads out to the rest of the quadrant that I have not explored out. Leading down from my home system is another system that I have a planet in and that leads to another system that I have a planet in.

(Z3)
/ \
/ \
/ \
/ \
--X2----X4 X6
/ \ /|
(HS1) X5 /
\ /
\ /
X7---X8---X9

HomeWorld=(HS1)
Planet in X2
Planet in X7
Planet in X8
Planet in X9
Zynarras in (Z3)
X2 leads out to rest of quadrant

Current Resources Blue = 101416
Green = 53
Red = 56300

I think I was negative on empire screen on all three and was going to tonite try to reverse that flow and then try to strengthen my position here. As far as I can tell research is going fine and I don't think that I am lagging to much there.

That should work better.

!!!GREAT MAP of your Galaxy (cluster)!!!

You need farms soon as possible !!! Is there a planet in your Home System (HS1) that has a colonizable planet (*) with 80% Organics(green) value or higher?

Build one trade center any planet and it constructs real fast!
The way your Empire treasury is now I would.
Trade 60000 Minerals and 20000 Rads for
Organics
If your planets are building resupply depots then at your HOME WORLD scrap you�re SPACE DOCK being careful not to select anything else. Build the Trade center there for now.

If you have trouble building Trade Center; due to lack of resources hit f7 key [usage] and put on [hold] the item using the most organics until you have traded.
After your trade from the Trade center, your good to go

For now build only one colonizer at a time (FROM Home World) until your Organics net researve increase to save levels; +20000. And you will notice fluctuations in you economy as you build on planets, Maintenance on ships etc. and Colonizers that were in route; land

~TIP: Set up some Mining outPosts and Organic Domes on nearby asteroids that are rich in the appropriate resource� (one per asteroid and only vacant planets!)
