Two things I really would like to see!

from Stardock Forums
Hi there,

its been a while I last had a chance to follow whats going on
with Galciv, but as I was planning on playing some games
during my summer vacation, I just played a little game
yesterday based on the newest beta, and I must say that I
think it looks really good. There are two things that anoys
me though, and I don't know if these issues has been
discussed earlier, or if its just me not knowing how to
obtain this functionality, but here it goes:

1. Over all difficulty level - I don't want to know which
of the races are the smart ones and which are the good ones,
I just want to be able to set the overall difficulty level
to i.e. tough (I only seem to be able to this by manually
switching the various races on random until I get the
desirred level).

2. Collaborative production: to be able to let different
planets take part in the production of the same unit, that
be ships or wonders. There should be some hit in the
combined production level, based on how far the planets
are from each other, and it could also be based on some tech
youn would have to research at first.

Just my "two" cents, best regards, Torben

Two interesting ideas, tof :)

1. Maybe it a possible mod that you can leave in the tweak the races or just pick the overall game level. Maybe same thing could be setup with planet density and galaxy size - let me pick size and let game randomly pick density, PQ etc. That way the tweakers are happy they still have full control but once you get good at every level - put a little mystery back in the game.

2. Ah, memories of the camel parade towards the Wonder capital in Civ.... Maybe a small freighter unit? Or even a item - send production to with drop down for Planet list. Not sure if code is easy or a whole other game..... :)
