The results of the invasion: - 90,000 sf in helions attacked 35,000 sf in eldritch and various planetary defenses with 25% casualties before winning - I received the message "Enemy capital conquered." and many nearby worlds defected - hoa0004 worlds no longer display spheres of influence and no capi...

Hehe, time for a little DBH*.

If this works, do you want to conquer my old capital once I get it back to see if we get the same results, or should I see what making it rebel does?



*Death By Helions

Are the tech programs still there, or did they disappear? And do you have the option to rebuild them? In Beta, my first capital kept its tech programs even after it was conquered, redesignated, recaptured, and redesignated again. The next test should be to find out whether making it rebel or getting...

Another update: the game has finally recognized that my original capital is no longer under my control and has stopped painting a sphere of influence around it (though x-cycles-since-you-last-logged-in messages still pop up on it). The new ruler of my old homeworld has not taken action or (auto-)abd...

I think a power that increases maneuverability would be helpful, especially for anyone who gets bogged down by all that ammo they've been hoarding. Obviously not guilty of this myself... >.>

My understanding is that your empire tech level is capped by the level of your capital world. I thought so as well. But my old capital was at TL8, my one and only sector cap was at TL6, and my empire's average was TL7. I'll see if anything has changed. Hold on a sec... *checks on Alpha empire* Frag...

Looks great! I assume it's not in-game size? That...would be slightly terrifying. So slightly I wouldn't even be the least bit scared. Because size is never indicative of power or the number of guns it has, right? Right?! :shock: (Seriously love the model, though; keep the awesomeness coming! :) )

A further update on Immortality: apparently tech is a vicious cycle. Foundations can't lift themselves beyond the empire's average tech level, which falls due to the lack of incoming tech, which causes the foundation tech-max to drop, which... and so on and so forth. My average TL is currently TL7 a...

Here, here. Tensions may almost certainly will arise if we can't consolidate enough to get some medium of efficiency. (Though I must say it was kinda fun racing you for control of that rift pocket.) We'll have to wait a (long) moment before working anything out, though. The Republic seems rather abs...

I think it would be easiest for you to just copy the code for adding the pteravore overlay (below), swap in number graphics, and fiddle around with the placement as you see fit. I don't know how extensive/precise control over the orientation is, though. <OnDamageArmor> (block Nil ; Add the pteravore...

Speaking of Immotals and Rus, I think he may have attempted to abdicate. Several worlds formerly his have become independent with efficiency levels indicative of recent independence-without-civil-war movements and his remaining ones no longer display a sphere of influence. This may be yet another th...

Just send several. That's what I did to try to get a message to Rus.

Oh, I always thought that was intentional. I have been mourning the loss...

That might be something worth testing seriously, as well as whether said world will suffer from that 5-watch-insta-rebel-thingy. And btw, to all Immortals in the galaxy(ies) who wish to communicate ingame, send (explorer) fleets to a predesignated world and just rename them with your message. I'm go...

I feel like this glitch happened to so many people recently. Hmmm, I was just checking how my empire was going in alpha, and it seems someone has just taken my capital. Now....I am also immortal!! :shock: Seems like this bug is 'infecting' everyone. Oh, I was wondering where your capital had gone. ...
