Reply to Ships hiding in anomalies in Galactic Civilizations IV GalCiv4 Forums

[quote quoting="post"] ...used the wormhole generator to remove the Xeloxi fortresses and survey the anomaly. [/quote] That is interesting. I tried that in past and removed the ships without a problem. When I tried to survey the anomaly, a whole new fleet of the pirate fortresses was guarding it. Things were worse than before. I may have waited a turn before I could get a survey ship there, which may have allowed the defending ships to reappear.

Reply to Neverending Siege in GalCiv IV Bug Reports GalCiv4 Forums

This has been reported several times. I have done this when an enemy fleet was besieging one of my planets. The siege did continue, but it was not indefinite. While the fleet was away, the time to finish the siege did not decrease. This made my planet immune to other siege since it was already under siege. The enemy fleet did not go too far away and made it back to resume the actual siege, causing the time to finish the siege to resume decreasing. It di

At the bottom-center of the screenshot are 3 icons. Click on the one on the left. That will show a list of options. The bottom one is "Advanced Edit Mode". Make it active, then exit all the way out of the game. I don't think it works unless you exit all the the way and restart the game. After restarting the game, and you should be able get the hard points to show.

Reply to My Yor became Festron - How did this happen? in GalCiv IV Feedback GalCiv4 Forums

When I was playing as the Yor and met the Festron, they told me that I was useless to them as a host for their eggs. I have a screenshot somewhere somewhere showing this. Despite this, my citizens had their descriptions changed to Festron over a number of turns, but their pictures remained Yor. It definitely isn't working right.

Reply to Commander ship will not repair in Galactic Civilizations IV GalCiv4 Forums

All ships belonging to a race with the Promethion Born Ability do not repair like other ships. They can only repair when in a fleet with right type of commander ship, and the commander ship uses promethion to repair all ships in the fleet. The Onyx Hive have the Promethion Born ability, and their commander ships have the ability to use promethion to repair all ships in their fleet. It looks like you're playing as a custom race and have the commander ships from the Cosmic

Does the research disappear completely, or does it just disappear from the discounted techs on the left of the screen? Is it included in the list on the right side of the screen, but you aren't looking there? There is bug I've reported multiple times, with saves, since April. Sometimes when you complete a trade, your current research is cancelled. You then have to chose what to research, but the tech you were researching is still available. If it was one of t

DANGEROUS COMMENTS? I see this thread on the GalCiv3 forums. I've noticed Comment #7 and 8 came 2½ years after the previous comment and seemed odd, but there was nothing obviously wrong. After looking at reply #9 from today, I noticed that it has a comma in an odd place. Then I noticed that the comma wasn't white like the other characters. When I put the cursor on the comma, I got a link to a website. When I checked comments #7 and 8 more careful

Reply to Ridiculous Alien Trade Offers in Galactic Civilizations IV GalCiv4 Forums

I'm not surprised at the offer. They are offering an Exploration Treaty, and all of the AI value that treaty way too much. I don't know what makes them value it so much, but it needs to be reduced by 50 to 75%. Sometimes their offer has you offering the treaty. When that happens, they offer a lot om exchange. This convinces me that the problem is with the Exploration Treaty.

Reply to Can we get rid of "you know what you did"? in GalCiv IV Feedback GalCiv4 Forums

At one time it was not clear when war had been declared. Then all conversations where war was declared had a notice added that made it clear that war had been declared. Newer messages like that, maybe from ChatGPT, don't have the message, so a vague conversation may have been a declaration of war, and you didn't realize it. I have had that happen to me recently.

Review text for all artifacts found in anomalies. Some for use on a planet indicate the planet should be "enemy" or maybe "foreign" or even "any planet". Only one is true. Some of the others may also have similar problems with consistent use of the word needed to describe what it does. ********************** Go through the names of siege ships for all species.
