Reply to Starbase combination types / expanded influences in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

[quote] First: it might be nice if you could eventually create dual type starbases, eg military/economic, particularly if earlier suggestions regarding introducing more starbase types (morale, research, construction) were to be included. I acknowledge that programming the AI and working around balance issues might be a bit of a problem. [/quote] Through modding you could make modules with a kind of bonus and put it on another starbase. for example: influence modules on an e

why are there so many undeveloped improvements in the planetimprovements.xml? in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

while looking through the planetary improvements XML file i realized that there were alot of developer notes and ALOT OF UNFINISHED IMPROVEMENTS!! some of them are linked to non-existant techs like "XenoPropaganda" Is this because the developers were lazy or is it for some other reason? i mean it's gotta be kind of easy to just enter the different strings and values for these improvements. then why were they unfinished and left out? -Dsep

Reply to why am I doing zero damage to these terran ships in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

the fact of the matter is that they've got bigger ships and probably have better weapons, so your small ships never really get a chance to fight.

i would say cut down on the amount of ships but increase the firepower of the remaining ships

Reply to About the custom planets... in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

[quote]4) AFAIK the game forcibly makes any home system have five planets, so any situation varying from that is likely a bug anyway.[/quote] it's not always a bug. it depends on the map. with a regular one, you're probably right. but with a custom map you can decide on how many planets each system has, so it's possible to have as many (or few) planets in one star system as you want. -Dsep

Reply to XML in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

rewriting the raceconfig.xml isn't a big deal. i'm already doing that. Even with doing that GalCiv2IDE doesnt recognize the races.
