L3O Horizon Game

I got one for the surrender part: Owning 3/4 of the galaxy and being in war with the Varaians who had only 1 planet left, they came to me asking for me to surrender to them. It just made me smile and you probably guess my answer :twisted: Sounds to me like the game is making some very weird checks ...

When I find a planet with the scientist you mention, I usually have a dialogue screen pop up where he tells me to find two things for a weapons against the Varians. It used to be so you had to dig the planet to talk to the guy. Have you checked the mission log to see if it has a mission telling you ...

The reason it has not been mentioned is probably because most people already know about it, and/or have not thought about it. However the changes you talk about here are only possible in a classic mode game. For those who play in normal mode with missions you cannot make these changes. You can only ...

When you survey a planet and it finds something it puts an icon that looks like a pick and shovel. Is that what indicates a planet you should dig? Yes. After you have done the dig the icon will change to more of a circle. These will give you either a new technology, enhance one you have, or in some...

I noticed that as well,and its not just the Gargals
Been at war with a race and have conquered a number of their colonies.
Then they suddenly come to me and demand I give them tribute or that I surrender, when I clearly have the upper hand.

If you play in mission mode I would think the reason you dont get a choice is because they are one of the two primary races in the game. When they surrender it means they give up their empire to you, which would be considered the end of the game, as in you win. Would you rather continue the war and ...

I havent played classic mode since beta, but I remember seeing it quite early on back then.
I dont know why you have not seen it yet after all that time though.

Currently ships don't gain experience. Warrior races start at Elite level while everyone else gets Veteran crew. Gaining experience is on the wishlist of things we'd like to add though. I see. Is there a public version of this wishlist so we can look at it and looking forward for the fine things to...

Good to hear things have been sorted.
I thought I had level 10 weapons, I noticed later that I had not gotten the chance to upgrade my starbases with the lvl 10 weapons before the attack.

I would like a MOO2 mod where I can play with the Orion races :mrgreen: Don't know if there is any legal / copyright issue but I think it would make a great mod. If you make the mod for personal use then its not an issue, since nobody else would know. And as long as you share it freely and dont mak...

That makes more sense than your previous post yeah.
I'm not really sure how to comment on this right now, I'll have to give it some thought.

That is correct, the economy stats show your gross income but it was showing the units erroneously (eg: billions would show in millions), we've corrected this for the next patch. Thanks! Hm. I expected this to be the treasury. Showing the gross income is very unusual as it does not show the actual ...

I'm going to suggest starting over because of the difficulty setting you used. My first "normal" difficulty game I deleted because it was very frustrating and really took the fun out of it. You can always up the number of systems when starting a new game ( recommended! ) and probably shou...

I am looking into this with a test scenario (L10 techs) but could not exactly reproduce the issue. It would be great Bansheedragon if you can send a report from the launcher or the saved game zipped (or rar'd) to support @ horizongame.com To clarify the disruption rate (photon disruptor weapon) is ...

I seem to recall reading somewhere, Cant find it now, that colonizing within the supply range of the AI could also trigger this.
Supply range being indicated by the circle around a star system.

So if you colonize too close to them they tell you to stop expanding.

Planetary Beam weapon is Lasers at level 8. Starbase uses lvl 10 weapons, dont remember name right now, but not lasers. But still at 8 lasers should be sufficiently upgraded to hit at least 50% of the time, especially if I have the other mentioned techs at 10. And even if I had lower tech, the highe...

I noticed this discrepancy as well, I havent been able to check it myself yet, however could the numbers reported be your gross income and not your net income or treasury?

I dont have an answer to your original question.
I'll take a look at it unless the devs have an answer for it before I get around to it again.
Right now I dont have much interest in playing due to the issue with hitting targets I posted in a different thread.

You forgot about trade and tourism, maybe you could tie those two together and put them into a trade/tourism category?

Not sure how well the would fit together though.

Advanced race mode?
First time I hear about that one, and not seen any option for anything like that.
I always run normal mode with missions, so is that something thats only for classic mode maybe?
