Reply to What are the hull sizes and their relation to each other? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

but remember. on bigger hulls the components take more space. while an engine might need 6 space on a tiny ship it might need 10 on a huge ship.

Bug: Ground Battle: Draw in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Reply to AI isnt very smart.. it Cheats in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Question on XML (Weapons) in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Okay I written a small parser for processing of the "GC2Types.xml". Now while browsing through the weapons I came up with some questions: Weapon.Type: what is that? what is it used for? Weapon.SizeMod: same question. I guess it has to do with the size of the weapon after some more tech discovery. Is it the amount by which the number is reduced? Or the lowest value? Any help is appreciated <img src="smiles/Congrats.gif"
