Re: Remote mining reduces production?

Argh! That's not how it works, it only goes down 1% per turn, like Raynor mentioned previously.

Re: Combat Movement: How is it calculated ?

half movement speed, rounded up.

Re: Am I the only person who thinks the Emotionless racial trait is a bit pricey?

I'd rather it force your happiness to 100%, but yeah - only having it at 1000 pts and letting you take -%50 and get 800 back is too inexpensive.

Re: Am I the only person who thinks the Emotionless racial trait is a bit pricey?

I think 1000 points for emotionless would actually be reasonable.

One of the problem with taking emotionless for strategic reasons is that it doesn't act as 'emotionless' but rather makes your...

Re: Secret of the 89 Movement point BaseShip

It's because SEIV can't handle a component being removed permanently after use - destroyed under the current design is the next best thing I suppose. So many things could be handled better in the...

Re: Warp Speed

I haven't come across this yet, but that may be because ships in SEIV don't have warp drives, and so can't go warp anything. Sure you've got the right game?

Re: General Question

From previous testing I've done, Env. Resist. has only shown to have an effect on growth rate, independant of anything else.

Every 5 points in it raises growth by 1%. I tested this for Unpleasant...

Re: Secret of the 89 Movement point BaseShip

Why would it be self repairing? If you did that, it wouldn't be any different than adding more engines or a solar sail. You wouldn't have any drawbacks to using it.

Repairing is too easy as...

Re: Robo miners/Remote Mining maintenance Reduction

Last I tested this, you only get the resources from ONE satellite in a group over a planet doing this. You'll still decrease the % value of the planet by 1 each turn, which seems like a waste to me...

Re: Secret of the 89 Movement point BaseShip

Using that came in very handy for me in the TG contest, when I needed to shuffle all my population to the ringworlds I was constructing. Each baseship could fill one RW to the 10B mark in one turn...

Re: Climate Control Facility ?

I think conditions might improve by actual percentages instead of increasing the condition by that percent (like value does), so that the worse off you are to begin with, the longer it'll take to...

Re: Climate Control Facility ?

I wouldn't treat the manual as gospel on the subject. Optimal is definitely better than Good, and I've never seen Pleasant, although I usually don't bother with climate control facilities

Re: Twin Galaxies Championship Scores

Well, since Walter's specifically said the contest will continue, I'd definitely finish your game. I'm just confused over what the heck they meant on their cancellation page.
