Default Re: Newbie needs help

Under empire status select the tab on the right empire options. Scroll down the list on the left to the group labeled system display. Turn all those on. It gives a map grid. You can go 50 map squares without resupply, unless you add supply storage in which case divide it by engines times ten to find out how far the extra storage will take you. Example 1000 storage at 6 engines moving 9 takes you an extra 16 squares in two more movement turns.

If you have at least one population on a world, then it will grow by one. Take the current population times one tenth the population rate per year and round that figure off. If less than one add one. Example 80 @ 12% gets .96 -> 1, but 84 @12% gets 1.008 you expect 2 but get one until you hit 125 @12% 1.5 gets you two.

I modify my race profile to use 10-20 bonus in reproduction rate since the slow growth rate is frustrating to me. Climate is also a factor, as well as happiness.
