Making the sound controls universal to include events would be helpful or a specific toggle for events. It makes me jump every time one happens.

Background Stars in GalCiv Beta Feedback GalCiv3 Forums

This is a petty issue, the background stars are very distracting on a busy map. When playing on larger maps, you have a bit of information overload and its one more thing you have to mentally filter. It would be nice when you're in the polishing phase to make them less pronounced. I love the game and my wife has informed me that I've wasted too many hours playing :)

How do I delete my ships in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Reply to Slight buff to "Sensors" tech in Research GalCiv2 Forums

I agree, We need a facility or something that gives additional visibility to planets. I do howvever build starbases at my planets to improve production/research. I always go after eyes of the universe, that gives you a 15 sensor range to all ships and starbases regardless if they have sensors or not.

Reply to Need held deleting old ship designs for new game in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I had the same issues, I thought that maybe the update changed the ships location, I haven't finished my game so I haven't looked for the new location yet.

Build Order in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

Then the following: 3 Basic Factories 1 Entertainment Center 2 Labs 2 Market Centers 1 Farm I let Governor upgrade them.

Minor Race use of Gifted Ships in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

On several occasions I have wanted to support minors that were on my borders. They were threaten with be overrun by one or more of the majors. I first built ships to give them and once produced I gifted them with the ships. They just sat there were in the same location. Next I built ships and moved the next to their colonies and then gifted them. They just sat there and were either destroyed in place and never moved. I assumed this was just that the minor AI have not been fully developed yet. I

I have traded for them, I also would place warships next to it and give them to an empire that they were at war with.

Give ultimatums to AI in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

It really irritates me when the AI builds a Culture Starbase next to my home planet. I don’t want to go to war I just want to get rid of the base. I would like to threaten the AI and get them to remove the Starbase. I would also like them to keep their warships out of my territory. Is it to late to add something like this to the game.

Reply to Beta 5 - planet tile bonus icons have changed. in Bug Reports Stardock Forums

I don't mind different icons that have different values for the same type of bonus, I don't like the same icon meaning two different things. I hope that it's just a bug and not intentional.

Interface Suggestion for Foreign Policy Screen in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

I check the Foreign Policy Screen every 3 to 5 turns, I’m looking to trade techs and to compare my tech position to theirs. Once inside the Race Screen I trade techs and then I back out, select the next race, back out, select next race, back out etc. It would be nice to have a next race/ previous race button inside each individual race screen. This would allow you to quickly run through all the race this way. Sorry if this is a double post.
