Alrighty, I've played all the tutorials, but I still have a few questions since I'm new to 4x strategy games.
1. If I build an improvement on a planet, does it affect my whole empire or just that planet? For example, if I build an economic improvement (market) on a planet, will my net income increase? If this is so, why even create specialized planets if all the improvements affect me as a whole isntead of affecting individual planets? Also, am I correct in assuming that a planet with a lot of factories will be able to build ships faster than one without a lot of factories?
2. I always seem to be low on money. I bring the tax rate up when I'm the dictator at the beginning of the game, but after voting starts, I can't keep doing that or I risk another party winning the elections. Any tips on how to keep the cashflow strong?
3. How come combat view doesn't initiate 100% of the time? Is this a bug with the game? I have it turned on, but sometimes it won't go into combat view during fleet battles and sometimes it will. Kind of weird.
I have more questions, but I can't remember them so I guess that's it for now.
