I like the fact that there are popups that appear when you hover over the different tax rate options. However, the information in the popups does not appear to be accurate. I have included a series of screen snapshots of the different popups and what actually happens when you select each tax rate. This popup appears when you hover over the "Normal" tax rate button when it is already selected. The information in it is what I would expect. <img src="https://cdn

[quote who="damonlundy" reply="2" id="3872688"] The ship leveled up [/quote] Command ships let me choose the upgrade I want when they have gained enough experience. "Normal" ships automatically gain hit points when they gain enough experience. I would not expect a command ship to automatically gain hit points.

I think your theory about the issue being related to AI ships transiting subspace gates has potential. The sector I am in has 4 subspace gates connected to it with a lot of AI civilization ships coming in and out. As best as I can recall, the civilizations that got stuck have all been from sectors that connect to mine. I know that is just anecdotal and not repeatable proof, but in the absence of proof, it is a place to start looking.

No, I do not verify files before each session. However, the game is not crashing, it is getting stuck on an AI civilization’s turn.

I am playing a game as the Torians and the game has gotten stuck on an AI civilization's turn 4 times and I am only on turn 110. When the game gets stuck, I can look at anything I want so the game is not frozen, it is just stuck on an AI's turn. The only way out is to exit the game (you cannot save at that point). When I restart the game, load my most recent save, and continue playing the game does not get stuck at the same point. I know this has been reported for pr

While playing the Torians I noticed an oddity with the Shimmering Depths faction. As shown in the first screen snapshot below, when you hover over the name of the faction (in this case the Endless Emporium) a popup window appears that shows which leader traits will affect the bonus/penalty gained from the faction when you assign a leader to that faction. However, as shown in the second screen snapshot below, that does not occur for the Shimmering Depths faction. The popup

I am playing as the Torians and I assigned a leader to the "Tlas's Flagship" command ship. I used that ship to attack a Ship Graveyard and it successfully killed all 3 defenders. However, I noticed that the ship gained 6 hit points after the battle, which was unexpected. The first screen snapshot below is from the Battle Report and it shows that the ship's hit points are 77 out of a max. of 80 . The second screen snapshot was taken after exiting the B

Old-Spider, Thank you for your responses. I have played a LOT of games in GalCiv4 as different civilizations as well as my own custom civilization. I have also experimented with all of the galaxy settings and I think the main reason I love playing this game is that there are so many different ways of playing and winning. The following screen snapshot shows the settings I have been playing with for awhile and I have found that, with the techniques I have developed,

Old-Spider, I loaded your save just out of curiosity to see who you were playing as and how you were doing. You have been around a long time and I respect the insights you have provided in many of your posts. I can confirm that the game crashes after going to the next turn and responding to all of the prompts. I have a few questions/comments about your game, not as criticisms, but as curiosity about how you approach playing the game: You have 7 unu

I ran into an unusual description when I hovered over the Repair Drones icon. Normally, it looks like the first screen snapshot below, but it often looks like the second screen snapshot below. Based on watching this behavior for a few turns, it appears that the erroneous "missile" message appears before you use the repair drones and the correct "Repair Drones" message appears after you use the repair drones. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/64/79/6479257/b373c74c-6

Now it looks like the previous version (1.10.361102) has been reinstalled.

I noticed that a new test version was downloaded, so I tried to start a new game and the game completely crashed when I hit the "Start Game" button after selecting all of the options for the game. The first screen snapshot below shows the version of the game as it appears in the Epic Game launcher and the second screen snapshot shows the properties of the executable. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/64/79/6479257/670e82d7-1b49-4266-bf8c-8b72829b8751.png" alt="

Here is a link to my most recent save. It shows the issue. https://www.dropbox.com/s/krz3npyj2i6mh6g/No%20Factions%20for%20Xeloxi%20Under%201.10.361102.GC4Sav?dl=0

I started a game as the Xeloxi to see what they are like and the Factions screens looks like the below screen snapshot. I assume this means that the Xeloxi do not get any Factions. Is this correct or is this a bug? I am on turn 36 and am playing the 1.10 release version.

Old-Spider, Thank you for the explanation.

This is another one of those issues that has been around for a long time and, since it is still present in the 1.10 release, I want to bring it up again to make sure it is on your list of things for the devs to fix. The issue is that the game "miscalculates" the number of turns it will take to move a ship/fleet from its current position to a target destination. It does not do this every time, but I estimate (rough guess) that it does this about 1 out of 5 times. The firs

I have noticed this going back many versions, but I wanted to post it to make sure it is on your list of things to do. In the upper left-hand corner of the main screen the game shows what you are currently researching and how many turns it should take to complete that research. The first screen snapshot below shows that I am researching "Flexible Bulkheads" and it should take 14 turns to complete. However, when I go into the Research Center screen it shows that it will take

Shortly after I saved the game that I shared in DropBox (above) the game froze. When I say froze, I mean that the game did not respond to any mouse or keyboard commands and when I went to the desktop I could not return to the game window even though it still existed. The following screen snapshot shows that the program is still consuming CPU time, but the Status shows that it is not responding: <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/64/79/6479257/e10cdc1b-9e30-494f-a203-

Continued: If you look at the Subspace Gate that is just to the right of the planet named "Phact III" you will see a situation that I do not believe works as intended. Sitting on the gate are 27 fleets and individual ships belonging to the Torians, Onyx Hive, and Terran Alliance. Surrounding the gate are 3 of my fleets blocking the enemy ships from exiting the gate. Here are the issues that you should be able to see by playing a turn or 2: How are al

Here is a link to a save in DropBox: https://www.dropbox.com/s/njbr7gwrhv8wjfz/Save%20Under%201.10_RC.GC4Sav?dl=0 It is from a game I am playing under 1.10_RC and it should allow you to see the following issues: Go to Atlas Shipyard 1 which is attached to Atlas III.

[quote who="gypsy2299" reply="5" id="3868786"] Without Blackholes you do not get Anti-matter, without nebulas elerium, without these resources you cannot build many ship and planet improvements.

[quote who="Tatiora" reply="1" id="3868763"] Hey there, thanks for reaching out! I asked Cari, one of our devs, about this and she said: "There is a minimum of 1 blackhole and 1 nebula because if you don't have those, certain resources are not spawned." I hope this helps! [/quote] Thank you for the response! If there truly needs to be a minimum of 1 black hole and 1 nebula then I suggest you change the label for the sliders in the Settings scree

I started a new game under 1.10_RC with the settings shown in the first screen snapshot below. Note that the "Black Holes" slider is set to "None". The second screen snapshot shows that I have discovered a Black Hole in my home sector on turn 35. Does the word "None" not really mean "None"? <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/64/79/6479257/d8479554-

[quote who="gypsy2299" reply="3" id="3868450"] As I understand the rules you need the weapons techs before you can build them. Can you actually build it or is it just in your list. Never mind it might be a bug but it might be replacing the Praxis ship. [/quote] 1. Clearly, since I am on turn 1, I haven’t researched anything yet. 2. Yes, I can build i

Yes, I believe so. It is a customized version of the Praxis ship with 8 slots.
