L3O Horizon Game

I did look into this further, going back to the original launch version. There hasn't been any changes to the game code with regards to these systems and it performed the same in my tests. Windows 8.1 should not be an issue.

So I think something is causing the PC to run slower than usual if it did ...

You can try reverting back to the older version of Horizon (pre-2023) and see if the issue is related to the more recent updates or if it's something else with your laptop or windows updates/drivers.

To do so you need to do two things:
1. Disable the DLC (right-click on Horizon in your steam ...

v1.0.2.156

We have a small update to refine a couple of things based on feedback and also shed some light on how the game difficulty settings affect the game which we hope will help both new & veteran players.

Colonization
* A.I. Empires with Neutral or Friendly relations will no ...

I think the "not close enough to the planet" is probably the reason. Report sent.


Got the report and I can confirm that was the reason. When the taskforce attempts to load troops (after being pulled into combat) some of the ships are aborting for being too far from the planet. Ideally this ...

With the "Load" orders it should fill all the soldiers available on the planet up to the limit of the troop pods (5K per) unless some of the troop pods are damaged (in which case those need to be repaired first to fill). Only other thing I can think of is one or more of the ships in the taskforce ...

It's a special Industry Building that provides 30x production, the highest possible in the game.

Did you mean making the map size and distances bigger or the quantity of stars in the galaxy?

Either way, it's currently not possible. Making the map size bigger is not supported by the galaxy generator but increasing the quantity of stars would be possible with code changes requiring a new game ...

The Pop 'Growth Rates' table hasn't changed, neither the 'Farming efficiencies' table.

The reason you are seeing 50% is that the Tantik have the race trait - Population Growth Rate : Low
which is a 50% penalty.

Unfortunately it's not listed on the Race Selection main screen when you select the ...

Would it be possible to update the above table to reflect the changes made in 1.0.2.142


Sure, here is the updated Habitable area table:

//__gasGiant __terran __oceanic __metallic __barren __toxic __arctic __volcanic __desert
//
0, 75, 25, 0, 0, 0, 25, 0, 25, // Terran Races - Normal

v1.0.2.155

Load Troops
* Increased the allowed range for ships to complete a Load Troops order from the assigned planet. This helps complete the order even when they are pulled away from the planet for combat in the same turn, so long as they remain in the same system.

An important update to fix a couple of issues:

Crash Fix
* Fixed a bug introduced in the last patch that could cause a hard crash in late game.

Turn Events
* Fixed a notification issue where a Unit on receiving Fighters would link to the wrong taskforce name.

A.I ...

v1.0.2.149

We have another quick update that we wanted to push live before the upcoming add-on pack. We hope you enjoy it.

New Achievements
* Added Terraforming achievements
* Added Conquest, Alliance and Galactic.Council Victory achievements based on various difficulty levels ...

Thanks Martok!

@Anguille - The new achievements are now live with today's update 1.0.2.149 along with some other things. Half the work was doing all the localizations but it was a good idea, thanks. Had to make it a separate update so it's available to all (no requirement to own the upcoming dlc ...

Hi Anguille,

Thanks. The second part will be an addon-on pack (DLC) on things requested prior. I hadn't considered adding new achievements but if you have any suggestions on what achievements would be fun to have I'll see if I can include some.

Some of you may be asking why an update now?

Over the years some features were requested many times while some bugs, minor ones may be but that nonetheless came to our attention.

And while we have been very busy working ...

Horizon 2 is well and alive. Sorry for the long radio silence.

It's taking longer but I'm working on it regularly, testing, bug fixing, and improving various systems.

It's a big project as you know so it's been very challenging to complete it but we're getting there surely.

I hope everyone is ...

Thank you for checking in, as always I appreciate it... I'll give an update soon after the holidays, in the meantime I wish you all a happy new year for 2022 and I hope you all are doing well!

With the exception of the GPU, everything is newly bought and is the best I could do with a 3rd world wage and absurd exchange rates. Don't hold back for me but please be nice and include me in the low end of graphic settings.


That's a fine CPU for gaming and the rest should meet or surpass the ...
