BUG: Military and Social manufacturing bonus bugs in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I have started a new game, custom race, normal difficulty. I have chosen bonuses/starting technology/government in such way that I have no military or social manufacturing bonuses. I checked in the abilities window that I have no those bonuses. Then I put the spend slider into 100% and I put the whole amount either into military production or into social production. I also put some ship to build and some building to construct on that first planet, so t

BUG: Mouse over pop-up does not disappear in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I use hardware mouse (because otherwise the pointer disappears) and if I mouse over some buttons, a pop-up help appears, e.g. "research screen" pop-up over the research screen button. This pop-up continue to stay there, even after I remove the mouse pointer. It disappears only if I move the mouse pointer over other button, like the end of turn. This is really annoying! I did not check if the software mouse have the same problem.

- How did it come up with 45? the closest I can get is the 24 from the capital plus 18 tp from the lab, assuming that the research bonus is a straight bonus to capacity and that it turned the 9 tp lab into a 18 tp one. But that only adds up to 42 tp, where are the extra 3 coming from? Your spending in the planet window is the total spending. It

How is defence calculated for multiple weapons in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Suppose my ship have beam attack of 2 and mass driver attack of 3, and I am attacking the ship which have 1 deflector, 4 armor and 9 point defence. The attack value is then supposedly just a sum of my 2 and 3, but what is the defence value?

Reply to BUG: Software mouse pointer disapears after 10min of play in Bug Reports Stardock Forums

Does it happen in both fullscreen and windowed mode? Do you have any programs running that change the Windows mouse cursor? I did not try it in the windowed mode. I have no mouse related programs. In fact I use generic Microsoft drivers for the mouse. There were no other unusual program running (except for

BUG: Software mouse pointer disappears after 10min of play in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

If I use software mouse, after about 10min the mouse pointer disappears. Both times it happened in some menus. First time in planet management, and second time in diplomacy menu. The pointer is not visible even when you exit the game, so I have to restart Windows to fix it. I did not have this problem in beta (though I did not play the game for 3 month). Hardware pointer does not have this problem...

I agree with the thing about the influence being shown at the start. I like not knowing where the other races are and that gives it away. But it kind of make sense... First you will see the "influence", like artificial things, radio transmission (undecoded) and staff, and only then you actually meet them.

Reply to IDEA: Special treatment of ships with no offensive capability in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

This is of cause an option, but GalCiv I did not let you build the military ships from the begining. And then there is another question of what kind of shield and what kind of weapon is free (there are 3 types of each). So I would say you have to discover the technology first.

Reply to IDEA: Special treatment of ships with no offensive capability in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

That might be a problem early in the game. You may start off with 1 weapon tech, but not have any of the defense techs yet. You could make an argument that the hull of the ship itself is "weak armor", but then what about Shields and ECM? Again, the solution could be that you simply can not create a military ship without at

A simple solution would be having the minimal attack value for military ships with any armor. Simply you should not be able to design a ship with armor and without weapons. Also you should not be able to design ship with weapons and without minimal armor, similar like it was in SMAC. If the ship is non-military, then it does not have armor and weapons at all, and will be destroyed if attacked unsupported.
