Reply to HP module in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

What it would do is effectively create a fourth type of defense without all the muss and fuss of hardcoding a new type of weapon/defense pair. You do understand that someone would have to actually open up the code and change alot of stuff for that to work, right? So the "no fuss of hardcoding" part goes straight out the window.

Reply to advanced starport in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Hmm, it seems my upgraded starports DO work, just not from the planet screen. If done from the galaxy screen they work. Nope. When it seems to work from the civilization manager, it actually isn't. It says it is building a ship, but does nothing really. The same bug happens if you remove a starport from a planet that was building a ship.

Reply to Why are there so many hard caps hacked into the game? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

100% stupid and unrealistic? Damn, how do you make screenshots in this game?! I have achieved 100% several times, with the total approval of about 70-80%. Trust me, it's not impossible. Hard, yes. Impractical, yes. Ultimately unuseful, yes. But not impossible. Hell, in the last few games alone, 81% taxes would produce about 20% approval. Just by accident.

First, replace all the with ( and ), so you can show us the complete form. And the game doesn't recognize it because it doesn't have a function that would allow that. No health, repair or whatever modules can be added. Believe me, I've tried.

It's just the ship, not the complete Stargate mod. EDIT: BTW, preversion is a nice word. Hehehe... Kinda reminds me of this movie with this mad scientist and this world war and this doomsday weapon

Reply to Looks like a nice game, but.... in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Multiplayer is a waste for a game like this. Period. Have you even been around this community?? Maybe only 5% of this community wants that in this game. A turn based game that takes as long as GalCiv2 to finish, you are out of your mind. I certai

Reply to This aspect of Diplomacy / Relations broken in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Well IMHO, Diplomacy and Trade are vastly overpowered. After building up a traderoute with each faction, focusing early on diplomacy, and building all the wonders that enhance diplomacy, trade or influence, I have successuflly made myself Friendly to all the other 8 races. Up to the very end of the game, until I had all 3 weapons and all 3 defenses maxed, as well as max engines, hull and miniaturization, I had never built a single military ship. My empite was huge and very ripe for the taking, b

Reply to StarGate Daedalus (Preview) in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Hmm... A Daedalus with invisible Mark IX torpedoes. Could work... but there's always the risk of a device not going off, and maybe that's why they don't use them. They did lose 2 nukes on 2 wraith cruisers that one time when they managed to stop the detonations, so I think they're affraid of handing a Mark I

Reply to StarGate Daedalus (Preview) in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Yes, the 303 was just the one and 304 is the mass produced battle cruiser. But the ships are not related at all. The Daedalus and Prometheus projects were running concurrently, and since the Daedalus ran into some trouble and needed Asgard help in finishing the design as well as donating some technologies, the Prometheus was built first. After that, it was clear that the effectiveness/cost ratio for the Daedalus was higher than the Prometheus, so they abandoned it. I want an Ori Destroyer! W

Reply to StarGate Daedalus (Preview) in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

No, it's not the mass-produced X-303, because the Daedalus is a completely new design with new technologies, and a bit larger than the Prometheus(RIP). The Prometheus would most likely be a Medium vessel in GalCivII, whereas the Daedalus would be Large. The Daedalus is also a carrier, and the Prometheus was a destroyer with a small complement of 302s.

If a ship traveling at warp speed were to drop out of the warp field, it would probably move at FTL speed in normal space, and soon collapse into itself and produce a mini black hole that would become saturated(assuming the theory of singularity saturation is correct) in a short time. Well, that's atleast how I picture it.

Reply to Okay, I should have said reversing parts, Kryo? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Yeah, it irks me so. There are a few others that badly centered, like the giant slightly curved engine-thing, part of the constructor. You know the one, right? And the normal engine-style one(block on a stick) has badly oriented points... They're really minor issues, but they really bother me.

You are right when you say that electrons replace each other as they travel under a DC current, but an AC current does not force the electrons to travel as waves. The electrons just change their dirrection of movement every time the current changes sign. The electrons do however, travel in waves as they move through the empty space between each atom in the circuitry. <

Your "wavelength" is your resonating frequency. Not exactly the same thing. It's because theories like these the most accepted one is the duality of properties. Electrons in current travel in waves because of two reasons: 1. Material density - sometimes, such as in nonabsolute martensite steel, where the medium has different crystal cells 2. AC current. In DC current, electrons travel by replacing each other. Think of a diode display with two colors that travel from left to righ,
