I deliberately chose it in my current campaign, but years later and no follow-up events that I can attribute to it. Would be nice of those choices had a 'knock-on' effect to other choices and events later in the game. Consequences for decisions are great. Like the lab inspection event, you can only...

I agree utterly here - IIRC I think I even mentioned this in another thread too, so am 100% with you on this. The yields on The Moon now make it a really poor ROI for bases & modules so much so it's not worthwhile bothering. In my current game (on the validation thread) I see the following: Luna...

In the main, the latest updates have really made things better overall. My one gripe really is that The Moon has been badly nerfed so much so that it's basically not worthwhile even bothering with it any more, which is a shame really. Sure you could do something else other than mining - but not unti...

I must have a look & see if I can still find my original installers for this game. High time it was made available again on Steam or something similar - I loved that game so much, and it's great to see others felt the same. I agree with you whole heartedly about the ambviguity of each of the fac...

Is that sig from 'Alpha Centauri' by any chance, DarthVicious?
A superb game...

I'm afraid you're the victim of a bugfix. Those techs had been far stronger than intended (and far stronger than their associated text would indicate), and the formula was corrected. Baseline metals cost at campaign start is 0.5 spacebucks per unit, so .89 is a meaningful increase. (Those values ar...

I'm looking forward to giving this a try.
Great looking mod - much effort gone into this.

Which is odd, considering the wording that it 'enables an event'.
I'm obviously reading too much into this.

Since the option was changed from Ops income to the 'Select Advisory Team' instead, I have never yet seen anything connected to the 'event' that was triggered.
What is it supposed to DO, please?

Oh yes, please - this would be so helpful I really can't think of anything else to add.

The idea of being able to run a blockade is extremely intriguing, especially in situations where Faction A has admittedly primitive fleets but few resources, and Faction B has the resources and is waiting for better tech before going down the ships route for example and I am sure there are other use...

Occasionally?
We're up to 13 feints each & every turn right now, for the last 4 cycles
Why don't they run out of fuel?

I am being engaged by an aay ship on a station. No ships to defend, just a couple LDA. I start, and almost immediately we can end by mutual consent, resulting in a 'victory' for me. Where it gets weird is that although the Aays break it off every time, a day later they try again. and again, and agai...

Why not go back even further, and re-introduce the pre-Columbian 'First Nations'?
Maya, Aztec, Inca and so on.

Not to worry.
Found the differences.
'Repeat Mission' - reassigns but does not restart the game timer
'Repeat & Continue' - resets for just the next turn only, and also restarts the game timer
'Permanent Assignment' - exactly what it says on the tin

I honestly cannot see any difference between the 2 options in Councillor Missions.
Is there a subtle one I am missing, please?

Oh, how Splendid! I say this simply because what is being found in and around our Solar System is one of my biggest interests. Can I ask if you are at all familiar with the 'Star Water' concept at all? https://arxiv.org/pdf/2106.09430.pdf https://phys.org/news/2023-05-webb-vapor-rocky-planet-star.ht...

Great to see this long-awaited build up plus already a couple of patches. I particularly loved reading this in the patch notes too: - 2 pallas and 704 interamnia changed to regular carbonaceous sted dry carbonaceous cause I read some stuff - adjusting some mining profiles cause I read more stuff Doe...

Appreciated. Luna had only what I detailed above. 1951 Lick 0-0.5 3753 Cruithne 0-0.75 4954 Eric is close to an utterly devoid rock with almost nothing except 10-20 Base Metals. My Solar System is alarmingly devoid of Fissiles Non-Fissile drives it must be then, along with making sure that things li...

In the currennt run there are almost no fissiles anywhere so far (Luna, Mars, Asteroids) with the largest supply being 3 at Luna (must go steal that base) and 1.6 on Mars, followed by another 1.4 on Luna (also not mine) and a final 1.3 on Mars (which is mine). There is one above 0.5 on Luna, half a ...

You need about 30 elite marine modules (and enough MC) to show more than 0% without a councilor - versions 0.3.5x-76. You could already have seen in this very thread that 8 is not nearly enough. Is there a spreadsheet somewhere that details just what level of forces would be required to successfull...

That's a really good & valid point about waiting - if the launch window is wrong then it really can (and often does) take longer than delaying for the right window would. This is of course absolutely realistic, but a concept that new players will struggle to comprehend at first I think, being us...

Advice appreciated. I found the problem though, and it was caused by me being greedy and 'reserving' too many sites & putting Fission Piles down before I had the boost to either build mines, or anything on the Moon to begin a Space Economy. My fault absolutely - run is saved, but probably abando...

Here's a dumb question.
What's 'Steam Play' please and exactly how & what does it work on?
It sounds very interesting as I have things I think may be cool.
Would it work on an iPad, for example?

The mind likes to see patterns where there are none -- This is the starting age code for all councilors and it's been this for years. var roughAge = UnityEngine.Random.Range(8, 23) + UnityEngine.Random.Range(8, 23) + UnityEngine.Random.Range(8, 23); I'd like to mix it up by giving older councilors ...
