For Jmenschenfresser's treaty problem, and should I run into them before the Tyrean fade away from their deficiencies, I would propose to work out the following :

if a trade & research is concluded with only part of the tribes, I would propose to reset it at regular interval, which would reset the percentage of data/material gained, thus simulating the fact that only part of the tribes are making business with you.

I cannot imagine how to deal with war/trade&research/non agression/trade/trade&research situation. But that would make some coool stories...Miam !

Brings up an option for the next installment of SE:

Being able to limit trade% in game...below a peak value.

If that were possible I could increment the T&R 4% for each tribe you dealt with, or some other % given that some tribes are 500-600 million people, while the Sa'ah are around 40 million.

BTW put a tribe's identification on each of your colonies' name, that could be helpful..

I said in a previous post that will be my Last post until first contact has been made.

I lied.

Ok...now I have met one other race.

And the game is actually slowing down. Having run my minerals down to virtually 0 I can only build on several planets at once, and since my first two research projects were theoretical, I've spent almost 3 years on two projects....

Now if only I can get myself to write more Posts per week.

Cool, you made contact? You kind of glossed over it in your post.

Anybody else make contact? You don't have to say if you don't want to, I am just curious.

Also it looks as if several people have found ruins. That's good. At least they aren't all in one part of the galaxy. How about events? I got hit with one. I left them on for the game but IIRC I set them to mild, so you shouldn't lose your star or anything. Just little things to give you something to write about.
