[quote who="sensenorsensibility" reply="2" id="3859208"] Silly me, I thought my purchase would continue to exist. I trusted thieves. One year of access to BETAS and UPDATES secretly meant AND ALL OTHER ACCESS TOO! But hey, I'm sure there's something of value at 15090 N Beck Rd, Plymouth, MI 48170 that I can take away from them.

Damage = rand()%(1 to max attack) - ( rand()%(1 to max defense in corresponding defense) + sqrt(rand()%1 to max defenses in non-optimal corresponding defenses). And I agree, the battle results don't seem to intuitively work the way they should. I'll ask someone to look further into it. But if I had to guess, it would be an issue of overkill. The winning side had 3 ships while the other side only had 2. So even if you super killed one of the ships, the other s

Glad to see things are moving well. Just again, I want to emphasize this: Moderation is a delicate art. 99.9% of people I deal with online are great people. And 99% of the time when there is a problem it's just an innocent misunderstanding. So the first time you warn someone, be gentle. In my time in moderating these kinds of libraries, most of the time when there is a "Rip" (which is what we call people using other people's artwork) it's either some ki

Historically, we do a very gentle first warning. This sort of thing isn't as clear cut as some people here seem to make it out to be. Many of the designs are operating in a gray area of copyright in the first place (i.e. we are talking about Star Trek inspired ships here correct?). For instance, if Paramount or CBS were to object to the designs, we would take them down. We are not lawyers here so we don't know the law on this sort of thing. But we

Originally, there was no 1 point minimum damage. The result was you would end up with invincible fleets and extremely long turn times.

One thing to check: Turn down anti-aliasing. I've seen people run at 8X anti-aliasing at high resolutions and no one is a winner then.

Reply to What Is It That I Do Not Get About Attack Values? in Galactic Civilizations IV GalCiv4 Forums

There is definitely something wrong there. The attack value shouldn’t exceed the max attack. I wonder if there’s some fleet buff that is letting it roll a higher number.

[quote who="Stalker0" reply="3" id="3850033"] One thing to add on the pile, while I like the sector concept I do think its severely hurt influence. As far as I can tell, influence does not transmit through the subspace node. You can take over your entire circle with influence, but your neighbor in the next sector doesn't feel a thing. I think that is a massive (and undesired) nerf to a core mechanic of the game. I would like to see some means of influence bleeding over into an

It's by no means a complete one. PDF manual wouldn't be an ingame feature. The Wiki will be getting a lot of updates and we invite people to help on that too if they can.
