No, Steam is not outright banning games that make use of AI generated content. This is Valve's response in full: We are continuing to learn about AI, the ways it can be used in game development, and how to factor it in to our process for reviewing games submitted for distribution on Steam. Our priority, as always, is to try to ship as many of the titles we receive as we can. The introduction of AI can sometime
I colonized a Precursor Prison planet and I chose the +3 pop cap to all worlds option. It did not work. Also, I think the reward is way overpowered if it would work as intended. +3 to just the world itself would be fine.
While I am enjoying Supernova. There are a few things I miss from previous entries in the GalCiv series. Spin Control Center It was a special improvement, I think one per galaxy, that made ships stationed at the planet it was built on appear five times stronger. In my last game of GalCiv II played I got a powerful precursor ship from an event and I stationed it on my planet with the improvement. Every other civilization was terrified of my military might and d
[quote who="DivineWrath" reply="1" id="3891565"] I don't know what this is. [/quote] Soak refers to a console command where the AI takes control of the player's civ. It is used for testing purposes.
[quote]The "orbital refinery" type slots are questionable, as it seems like all they do is replace the land based refinery I could build on a given resource. Yes they build much quicker, but I also can't upgrade them like I can land based ones, and ultimately that's a pretty precious slot to be giving up. [/quote] That is mostly for low class planets so you don't have to waste a governor to harvest the resource.
The event Holographic Memory Archive is missing its image. Also the choices don't have any tooltip on what the result will be.
The description for the minor civ Guardians seems to be incomplete.
There is something odd going on with civilization placement on map generation. Here are my options for the game And here is the result There are 18 civs in total and around 8 were placed in the same sector, you would think with the D
Doesn't really make sense for the Planetfall tile to be present on a homeworld.

The patch has caused some strange behavior in my game. Research costs have skyrocketed. Prestige score was reset. Also my progres on the Dread Fleet achievement was reset. And no new ships were spawned so now it can't be completed.</

Factions are nice, but I wish they were generated as you play and more varied. In the Trade screen the Origin and Destination for Foreign Trade Routes are mixed-up. How can a trade route be destroyed? Is there even a method? I have to question why the AI picked some random colony, rather a core world with more wealth, for the trade route.
[quote]Monthly Income - Numbers don't add up with the information that is given. Is there somewhere else I can see my income/expenses, or is this it? These numbers make zero sense [/quote] While the numbers could be clearer, the way they are supposed to be read is you are getting +90 from a treaty, +278.22 from your civ income, and +25.22 from trade routes, added together gives 393.04. Taxes being at 33% means you get from that about 130.03. Now subtract
There's a culture trait in the Malevolence group that removes penalties from Factions, you should check if you have unlocked it.
The hotpatch fixed the crash issue. Orbital Manufacturing doesn't seem to unlock anything, just leads to another tech. Not really a fan of researching for research's sake. I'd like it there was a way to tell at a glance if a resource is being mined. I can't which ones aren't. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/38/44/3844697/04dcdeb1-7832-45d4-a2

It's been a while. With Supernova's release on Steam I decided to give it a spin. I really love how all the aliens look and I will enjoy conquering peacefully annexing their civilizations. I do miss some of the old civs. And the Star Control ones, the Tywom were a surprising challenge. I obviously started with the largest map size, go big or go home as they say. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/38/44/3844697/8
If you have a savegame where this is reproducible it would help a lot if you uploaded it to a cloud service (DropBox, Google Drive, One Drive) and post a link here, so the developers can take a look at it. Savegames are located in \Documents\My Games\GalCiv4\Saves
