Q: What are some of the UI improvements you plan to make to the governance pane by release?
@PaulWill it be possible at all for the Arceans and Drath to return in a future Expansion?What about the Torians? Or a lost colony of Korath?Maybe even the Korx on a lost sleeper ship? They used to travel by generation ships to do their trading pre-hyperdrive so having a "lost" group return from travelling between one star and another would be cool.Now the game can support up too 100 races - how many more "Canon" races are Stardock as a whole thinking of adding into the game in the future?
Q: What can we expect for governors by release?
I do hope you'll add the ability to scroll through shipyards the same as through planets (and Ships) soon. It's a real pain, having to go out and back in for each shipyard, when I'm checking my queues and making sure they're up to date (with the latest builds).
When reuqesting a constructor, can you choose which model to request, including custom models?
By my aunties beard, might have to hit the sack before this one rolls. In that case, recall recall! Err... Record! That's the one!
Constructor spam ?
Hello, Stardock I have a followup question to a question I've asked in last week's stream reagrding custom faction leader portraits:
I've successfully uploaded a custom portrait and leader foreground .Bmp image file from my computer for my custom faction's leader to represent an alien race I designed. I'm able to see it in single player and multiplayer, however in multiplayer games my buddies tell me they can't see my leader or portrait. They say that they just see the background I chose from the game's pre-given background image options. So my questions are these:
1. Will there be an option for us to show our custom faction leader images uploaded from our computer to other players in multiplayer for release?
2. Will there be an easyer way implemented to allow us to import custom leader portraits for our custom faction besides having to go to place them in the My Documents-> my games-> GalCiv III-> Factions-> Portriats folder outside the game.
Can you tell us more about how mining works? Income/production boosts? I'm sure you will probably go over the experimental parts side already. Thanks
Is it possible to have multiple defense types on a ship component. For example, has 10 defense to beams and 5 defense to missiles?
With the new Beta 5.2 now available as opt-in, I am wondering about what the current situation is with weapons and defenses.
How do missiles, beams, and mass drivers compare to each other? (In B5.1 it seemed my survey ships were firing their mass drivers twice as often as their missiles and beams. Is this correct?)
How do the three defenses work against the three weapons? Sure beams are good against shields, but do armor or point defense help protect against beams at all? Same with the other combinations. Does Point Def do anything against mass drivers?
Thanks!
Will politics and parties be added in any future expansion? I dream of a space strategy game with the same ideological and political depth of Paradox's Victoria 2.
Also, would we be able to mod more or change the current ideologies to better represent political standings? (for example, instead of having Benevolent, Pragmatic and Malevolent, you could have Democracy, Imperial, Militaristic, Collectivist etc)
Updated with replay.
if you could can you colonize non habitat planets inside a dome er something? could you make your civ vote on things like the galactic congress in things like a new economy, choose war or not and other things
Thanks for putting up with us eternal latecomers, by putting up the replay! That was glorious! ( Also got record close to that one eyed Snathi, for those who keep track of these things. The marvels of modern squirrel science! )
