After winning my second game on 1.02 I decided to examine the Epic Achievements that I noticed had been triggering as I played. (Press Shift-F3 in game to see your list of achievements). It seems that some of them don't work, they are not awarded when achieved. So I thought I would make a list so that others could report whether they had gotten the achievements or whether there are others that are bugged. First, these are the ones that worked, i.e. were properly awarde

[quote who="Nastytang" reply="26" id="3852549"] which is grayed out for me [/quote] Are you on the Release branch, 1.01, or the Test branch, 1.02? You might need 1.02 to access it.

Queue up one Economic Stimulus project for the planet. Once you have it queued, click on it in the production queue at the bottom center. A set of options will appear above it, one of which is a repeat build option.

[quote who="aerez4546" reply="15" id="3851886"] Well that's rude, you went and partially fixed one of the cheezy things I liked exploiting. [/quote] One person's grossly OP exploit is another's favorite brand of cheese. I sympathize with you.

This is epic (pun not intended). I hope the background document on the Festron becomes regarded as canon, it is so well done. I might suggest, however, that the actual decisions made in the game (what to research, what to build, etc) could be posted here in the forum so that new players could more easily learn from your strategy.

On Colonial Supplies - I agree that Colony (not Core) world approval doesn't matter much in the current game. However, political systems and elections (like GC3) were originally part of the game but were removed during the alpha/beta. Colony approval meant a great deal to the elections, so if they are brought back at some point this order would mean a lot more.

Select the colony you're considering upgrading. You'll see something like this in the lower left corner: Click on the planet icon on the lower right and it will bring up a list of possible upgrades: Mouse over them to see what they do, and if you want

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="11" id="3850870"] Turn down anti-aliasing. [/quote] That was it for me too. I've been playing with the default 8x with my GPU being driven at 100%. I turned it down to 4x, and now my GPU is under 50%. Much better.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="3" id="3850641"] There is definitely something wrong there. The attack value shouldn’t exceed the max attack. I wonder if there’s some fleet buff that is letting it roll a higher number. [/quote] The battle log has been like this ever since the change (during the beta) to make every attack do at least 1 damage.

[quote]-Performance. I'm running Elden Ring on max settings without my PC sounding like I'm at the intake of a jet turbine engine but this game chugs something serious. [/quote] I've got an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 which GC4 was driving at 100% in the galaxy window. I saw a tip from someone and used the NVIDIA Control Panel, Manage 3D settings, Program Settings to cap the FPS for galciv4.exe to 61 fps. My fan is quieter now. Not that that's the best solution, but it
