Some anomalies give a choice to add a weapon to the survey ship. When that choice is taken, the weapon is added, then removed when the ship is moved. The 0.50 change log indicates it has been fixed, but it’s still broken. I started a new game with the update and played until I found an anomaly that had a weapons upgrade. Look at the weapon stats at the bottom left of this screen shot to see what weapons my ship had when I surveyed the anomaly.<img src="https

[quote who="Seilore" reply="30" id="3815843"] Just got an event to give me a free class 5 planet. However, I don't have any class 5 planet in my inventory. Not to mention, this event doesn't auto align to said planet so you can see it or tell you the name of said planet.[/quote] That event usually gives a class 3 planet or maybe a class 2 planet.

I had some strange things happen in my current game. It is a new game started with the 0.50.190544 update this afternoon. The Corporate Sector sent the Gaze, one of the new command ships, and several tiny ships with 1 missile attack, which never formed a fleet, to eliminate a group of pirate ships and their shipyard. When the ships got to the area of the pirate ships, they all just milled around each other without attacking. This went on for several turns. <b

In 0.45, every time I could trade with a race I recently met, Subspace Scanning and Subspace Streams were always two techs that I could trade. Much later they did get those techs because I sometimes found them in sectors that weren't their original sector. In my 0.50 game, I got this trade offer on turn 87. Notice the Subspace Streaming is

I found a bug/exploit when my survey ship had a drone module. When I used the short-range missile attack, I got two drones added to my fleet. This continued until I made a normal attack, then they all vanished. After that, I still got two drones added each time I used the short-range missile attack. I already posted on Discord a link to a save showing this. Derek indicated he was already checking it out. I'm just putting this here so it is less likely to ge

[quote who="Publius of NV" reply="1" id="3815572"] The History description for the Festron is truncated. It ends "Those that conquer Festron worlds, or welcome Festron colonists to theirs, will soon learn it". On my 2560x1440 screen with default display settings, it looks like there should be two or three more lines available to display text, so I can't tell if it's a problem displaying the text or if the description itself is incomplete.

New features, more new features and even more new features! Wow!! I was thinking about starting a new game in 0.45 as The Navigators, but the coming new features started me thinking about waiting for 0.50. Then I read more. Terran Update - Maybe I should wait for 0.50 and play as the new Terrans. Navigators Update - or maybe play as the new Navigators. Drengin Unlocked - The Drengin, I have to try them.

Reply to No Ship Designs Error in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

A year or so ago I had that problem for no obvious reason. I think I fixed it by starting the game and waiting until it got to the main menu, then clicking on the Resync Mods button at the bottom of the screen. It will take a minute or two to finish, so be patient. If that doesn't work, exit the game and go into your Documents\My Games\GC3Crusade directory. Rename the folder Designs to DesignsOFF and the folder ShipStyleSet to ShipStyleSetOFF. Start the game an

Most races have a name that don't start with "The". The Navigators and The Corporate Sector are the two that do start with "The". This results in situations like this. The Navigators have their name as plural except in this case.<img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/24/51/2451921/6a0c19d5-0ee0-44f4-b183-35242b7fbafe.png" alt="" width="1920

The AI value exploration treaty way too much. When they offer it, they expect me to give up a lot. When they want me to offer it, they are willing to give up a lot.

The increase in hit points and speed comes from the Genius level. I just finished going through all the difficulty levels and getting the changes in hit points and speed (moves) the starting survey ship gets for the different races. At Genius level, the hit points increase by 32.5% over Normal. Moves increased by 50% to 75%, depending on the race. The values you are seeing are what they should be. The AI is following the rules for these two parameters. I
