In that there are at least two mods that add more map/flag colors, I don't see why adding colors to the base game would provide much in the way of difficulty.

You know the only problem is that every time I poke my head in here it's always about how cool the NEXT update is going to be.....which pretty much kills my desire to play the game right NOW.

Demon_Corsair posted:I'm back with more questions about why numbers don't seem to matter in combat. 1.1k of my corvettes vs 1.2k of their corvettes, and the somehow do 4x the damage. Well the tech matters. The first problem was Torpedoes. They're a trap in the early game because their low tracking makes them terrible against small, evasive targets...like all those enemy corvettes. The second problem was your shields. You went into battle with ships with identical guns but with only 60 shields to their 90 shields. And you went in with fewer ships. If you're going to win a fight you've got to be either better or more. You went in with worse and fewer. And what should have happened is what happened.

Main Paineframe posted:Running a negative energy income is fine, even for extended periods of time - you can easily cover the deficit by just trading to refill your stockpile. I've gone through whole wars like that, peddling star charts, active sensor links, and spare minerals all around the galaxy while I fight.

Captain Invictus posted:Yeah, I really like the mechanic of extracting stockpiles dropping to 25 influence instead of 100 during defensive wars. As for habitability, I've just been terraforming everything into Gaia worlds, that's the catch-all perfect planet type for everyone, right? Its in the Species Rights for every individual Species in your empire. Make sure you're as permissive as possible for all species and they'll cheer up.

Captain Invictus posted:So what would cause all the little liberated one planet empires to suddenly go from +500 opinion and friendly with me to -250 and hating my guts all at once? All these guys were my buddies and I protected/liberated them at various points for centuries and then they pull this poo poo. Like the only thing I did was conquer the incredibly hostile slave empire that had enslaved their former, larger empires in the first place. You can hover your mouse over their Opinion of you to get the full breakdown, but most likely it was Border Friction. When you became their only neighbor you stopped being their long distance sugar daddy and started being the reason they couldn't expand anywhere, which is why they suddenly didn't like you.

Conskill posted:Not really. Synthetic Dawn isn't quite at Leviathan-levels of added utility to everybody. It's quite cool and I enjoy changing it up with machine empires sometimes, but it's easily missable if you don't care for the concept. While I agree that SD ain't as important as Utopia or Leviathans, I must say I do enjoy playing against all the AI craziness that SD introduces, even if I don't play as AI much myself. It makes for a richer and more interesting universe

So I've been playing with a galaxy filled entirely with races I've created myself (barring the Fallen Empires whom I can't customize) and it's wonderful. No more having to remember which of the Whatzit Unified Commonwealth or the Whozit Common Unity is friendly and which hates my guts. Hey, it's The Green Death! Gotta watch out for those fanatic purifier plants. They're real bastards. Even better, I can create some pre-made storylines. I'm playing as Terrans lost out in the galaxy, while another faction of Terrans (same pic, same stats) gets the Sol package. Those other Terrans got overrun by religious Fanatic Purifiers and I just came charging in from the rim to liberate Earth. So satisfying.
