Re: Twenty-sixth game on the multiplayer slow game server
Well there are saves? If these saves are sufficient to debug the problem then I'm fine, it's clear that the game wasn't very challenging anymore for us and probably not very interesting for you either. We already had once a full MP game (well, intended to be a full game, but which ended being abort...

Re: Twenty-sixth game on the multiplayer slow game server
What is there to test about what clearly looks like an Annexation bug ?
I guess that we should make those test a priority now, to settle things before next game.
But it's only at Izsm that I see the problem, so I don't know how to test it (beyond seeing what happens at Izsm in the next turns, I mean).

Re: Military Command Cost
Why wouldn't you take Liberty on turn 6 or something then ? I don't really understand. Propaganda Broadcasts take a few turns to reach full potential so the early Influence bonus isn't overwhelming if you don't intend to keep it. Also, getting a Social Policy slot at start is also a false good idea ...

Re: Large hull vs Small Hull Balance
Splitting titans from self-gravs would probably mean putting titans on advanced engineering bay. I'd still need to know costs but 400 for each shipyard sounds right to me (and dropping solar shipyard to 800 too). I don't really understand the consequences of these numbers but I remember the times w...

Re: Annexation feedback
For information, the Izsm planets are still not annexable to me on turn 191.

Re: Twenty-sixth game on the multiplayer slow game server
Your choice. I thought that Oberlus wanted to have some fun with his fleet ? drkosy is coming back at the end of the week, and BA leaves on April 20 IIRC. But if you want to concede, I certainly can understand. Maybe wait until turn 193 at least to see if you are able to pull some buggy annexation t...

Re: Annexation feedback
As I wrote earlier, the whole Annexation mechanism is lame (I proposed a Citadel-like one long ago, obviously a much better one imho). But right now, no it shouldn't be possible. Note that I had all the planets marked at "not annexable"; I don't know why BlueAward was able to annex them. T...

Re: Make terraforming (and perhaps GAIA transform) cheaper
Can't find where but there was an idea of a different Terraforming way, more compatible with ecology. Basically, where you exchange cost for time. The main beef I have with Terraforming is that you get it (both the tech and the Production to be able to use it) at a time where you already have all th...

Re: Planet Specials
what people think about it working without detecting the special. e.g. do you get the stealth bonus without seeing it?, is there an accounting label for a stealth bonus, if invisible? That's the reason I didn't bother to propose code for this Special : I have no idea how to manage these aspects. I ...

Re: Design Simplicity
Or a sliding scale 20% for a 1 gun ship, 10% for basic carrier (3 parts), and 5% at 4 parts Works with the fluff, I have trouble figuring out how it would play. Obviously reduces (a little bit) the efficiency per PP of fighters, but apart from that ? I don't think that we need more monotonous fleet...

Re: Reviewing Early Tech costs
Works with the fluff I guess, but why do you want to do that ?
