My Documents\My Games\GC2TwilightArnor\ScreenShots Actually, I pressed Ctrl + print screen several times during a game and when I went to look, I noticed that I don't have this folder...do I need to manually create it?

[quote who="tetleytea" reply="5" id="1969820"]A few planets *SHOULD* be bleeding money like mad. Your tech and manufacturing capitals, for instance. That is not a problem, that is good gameplay. [/quote] Ohh...ok. It's usually maybe, 3 out of 15 planets. maybe that IS normal.
Sometimes, when I'm looking at the Civ manager screen, I'll see that a few planets are losing money. How can I fix this? Does this mean that too many things are in the build queue? Thanks.
allthumbs - I was where you are now, about a month ago. It took a lot of searching and reading to be able to play, but it is SO worth it. This is truly a unique game. Stick with it, learn all you can, and enjoy... :)
[quote who="kryo" reply="1" id="1969612"]Ctrl+PrintScreen puts a shot in My Documents\My Games\GC2TwilightArnor\ScreenShots. [/quote] Perfect! Thank you...
I searched for 'screenshot' and got zero hits...I see that there's an option for what kind of file it saves screenshots as, but I'm not sure how to take one. Also, what folder does it save them in? Thanks all...
did I stump everyone with this one?
[quote who="tetleytea" reply="1" id="1963330"]Sure. That's called ferrying. Just move the transport onto the planet, and then re-launch it with only 1 population. [/quote] Ah yes...thank you!
...To add to the population? If so, how do you do it? Thanks much.
Hello, I recently designed what I thought was a really big ship, huge hull size...the info screen said it was 1500 meters long. But when I engage a couple of fighters, they appear in the combat viewer to about a third the length of my capital ship. I would have thought that tiny or small hull size ships would be like flies buzzing around this thing. So, does the combat viewer scale down the size of really big ships?
ok...no wonder I'm always out of money. I tend to fill up all the squares with factories and research centers right away...
Hello, I was just wondering if, when I acquire a planet, is the best idea to just immediately fill up all the squares with something, or is it a better strategy to leave open squares. I didn't really see this in any tutorial... Thanks...!
please do, it was a lot of fun to read. It actually inspired me to slow my games down and enjoy them more...
This is a great, great read! Please continue...
When I enter battles, sometimes the combat viewer opens to show me the battle, and sometimes the battle occurs just on the main map. It seems sporadic, any reason why this would happen? Thank you.
you're right about the ships, thank you! I didn't think of that. as far as the preferences, I played with default settings and it ran great, after the update, still using default settings, it unplayable. 1-2 frames per second.
Hi guys, just two things: In my shipbuilder, why do the small hulls have 5 hit points but the large hulls have 1 hit point? Is this a bug of some kind? Also, when I updated recently, it destroyed my frame rate, do the latest versions run worse than older versions? Thank you.
excellent! thank you very much...
It seems like I can only fit 2 or 3 fighters in a fleet. How do I create huge fleets in galcivII...?? Thanks all.
