[quote who="gypsy2299" reply="12" id="3835308"] For those having problems with upgrading colonies have you verified your files since the latest patch. [/quote] Yes, I verify my files every day.
[quote who="gypsy2299" reply="7" id="3835259"] Are you and Publius saying you cannot left click a tile and improve it? [/quote] No. We're talking about the one per colony (not core world) "Colony Upgrade" you used to be able to do via the main galaxy view. Select the colony and then try to click on this button. It used to bring up a menu of upgrades that could be built on a colony. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/3/68/368410/886265f2-e42f-4537-ba60-34

[quote who="williamameling" reply="8" id="3835246"] Except I do not get Tree type diagrams this way, that people are used to working with from most of the other games with researching technologies. [/quote] Exactly. I think Brad showed a screen shot of a tech tree in one of his recent forum posts, so I'm still hopeful that they will come back.
[quote who="AdamMG" reply="5" id="3835226"] The colors of the tech cards would really help a lot, or at least a noticeable icon that shows its path. [/quote] The current colonization techs are brown, blue, and green, with one red and two yellow (at the very end, look like capstone techs). Engineering techs are mostly browns, with a few blue and red and one green. An icon is a good idea.
True, Old-Spider's screen shots were useful, but how many new players will even know about them?
[quote who="AdamMG" reply="1" id="3835192"] this is why the "focus research" button, in the upper right corner of the tech screen, exists. [/quote] Which a lot of new players won't notice. Also, in order to intelligently use it you have to know which branch of the tech tree the tech(s) you want are in. To find that out you have to go to the Tech Library, use the focus buttons there to show only the techs within one of the four branches, and then search to see if your

Are you aware that there's a major bug in using saved custom settings? If you do, the Factions window for leaders is non-functional. I've been having to re-customize my civs from scratch every game because of this.
In your Documents\My Games\GalCiv4 folder you'll find a file named prefs.ini. Display resolution is set there. I have no idea if your resolution will work, but it's worth a try.
The -11% approval I mentioned from the Freemarket Society doesn't seem to be getting applied to my citizens.

Typo: The Strengths and Weaknesses of the Corporate Sector says "They have many ways to full up the treasury". Should be fill up, not full up.
The bug I previously reported, where if you start a game with a previously customized civ and don't opt to discard the customizations then the Factions window is non-functional, is still there in .71.
You have to research Xeno Manufacturing, that gives you a project to manufacture a citizen.
[quote who="scifi1950" reply="18" id="3831735"] What good is a planet with all these research bonus hexes if the base research for the planet is "0"? [/quote] I see your point, but that's why it's important in this game to have a lot of colonies feeding each core world. Find colonies with research input to feed that core world.
Ok, you got me. It does look like the relic is within the star base's range.
Your second pic shows that you've built the Ancient Studies Center on that star base. The pic in your first post showed you hadn't built in on that one.
There's a tech you have to research that unlocks a star base improvement you have to build to study relics. Your pic shows you haven't yet built that module on your star base.

[quote who="gypsy2299" reply="32" id="3831361"] can you then redo it and have factions work? [/quote] It worked for me.
[quote who="scifi1950" reply="30" id="3831324"] Factions are definitely glitched. [/quote] Yes, as a number of us have confirmed on the Discord chat, the Factions window is glitched and won't work if you try to use a civ that you had previously saved customizations for. Clearing out your My Games\GalCiv4\Factions\CustomTemp folder, or telling the game that you don't want to use previously saved customizations, will allow you to start a new game and have the Factions window
I got an event about a religious cult. First choice was gain a leader, 2nd was an increase in global income, 3rd was gain a cleric citizen. I chose the cleric citizen but no citizen showed up.
[quote who="Reisz" reply="23" id="3831244"] Terran and Baratak [/quote] Ok, it appears that any race I had made customizations to in a previous alpha version won't have the Factions window available if I start a new game and keep the old customizations. I erased all my old race customizations files from my My Games\GalCiv4\Factions\CustomTemp folder, started a new game as Drath, and now the Factions window is available.
