You may have read my post Oh where.I have 2 problems that keep me from buying the game.1. The only computer that has internet is my mom's computer.AKA that means no games on hers or downloads.{I have my own computer but it does not have internet acess and is impossible to have} 2.The money is not easy for a 12 year old to earn. HOW!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

1) You can sort something out with this from Stardock I am sure. There must be a way to patch a game on a non internet connected PC. Worst comes to the worst, buy a cheap cable and connect them.... that way you get internet too!

2) Go and wash cars! I remember back in the days of yore, I think I was about 9 years old, I went out and made 50 pounds (UK) in 2 days of car washing..... and that was quite a while ago now!

1.) You can download the updates on your mothers computer, and transfer them to yours to actually install.

2.) There are plenty of part time jobs you can get, and make $40 in less than a week. Try mowing lawns, unless you have been a pest to your neighbors, they will probably let you do this for some cash.

I sold my liver, kidneys and lungs to research to buy this game. I have a pretty rough time actually playing it, but it was worth it. I think.

This is why I skip the expensive stuff and just ask for EB gift cards for Christmas.

Basic LAN cards probably cost about $5-10..... I'm just guessing on US prices but they are dirt cheap.... a cable will set you back $5 dollars max..... so for $10-15 you could have both easily updated Galciv2 AND internet access on your PC..... you probably only need to wash 1-2 extra cars to do that!

When it comes to washing cars, that was just an example.... but remember 2 things if you want to earn some cash. A lot of people respect when kids/teenagers are trying to be entrepreneurial and earn a few bucks for themselves. Do a good job..... and they will tell their friends to give you a break too. If it all goes well, you'll be buying yourself a new PC in a few weeks!

I can figure out how to direct a ship to move. I found the auto move but I mean manually. I'd like to direct my ships to specific planets, etc. I tried doing it using the Galactic Civilization I method but I keep moving the map not the ship.

I read the manual but its not obvious! There is a lot of great information but the simple stuff like moving a ship either is hard to find or doesn't exist.

HELP!!

eh, the only suggestions in this thread are to wash cars. if you couldnt figure that out then you dont need to be playing this game, you should be reading the dick and jane primers. cant believe the serious responses you got to this question. the true definition of trolling if there was one.
