<t> Not all of these sliders exactly connect to difficulty anyways. The home system one, maybe, but that really only controls the size of the first hurdle you meet.

<t> Another night of playing. I still think the early game economy was made to be too easy. It probably shouldn't be as difficult as Beta 2 was, but maybe somewhere between now and then. But I can't argue with a slider to control this. If you guys do decide to implement that, could I ask that there ...

<t> Been playing around with the new beta. I haven't encountered any significant bugs. I think the economy is too easy again, though.<br/> <br/> In Beta 2, the beginning of the game usually had an extremely tight budget. I always expand as fast as I possibly can, and it was normal for me to dip into...

My experiences have been the same as Munchies. The only time I think another empire attempted to colonize one of my systems since the 1.04 patches, our relations were dismal and we were both heading towards a war anyways. It makes sense in that case that they wouldn't respect my borders.

you should upload it if you have it.

<t> In my latest game, the jumping around of my income seemed to be caused by resort bases. Sometimes they'd show 100k incomes, other times it'd only be 8k. It's probably just an issue with how the game extrapolates the current resort income into the yearly budget. Not sure if it's something that ca...

I have the same crash, but it happens in well after the start of the game. I have a save that's about 30 seconds away from the crash if needed.

From what was said on the forum before, I believe they're identical except for the readme.

It's pretty awesome that you guys can move this fast. Keep up the good work.

I've just started hitting this same issues as Yam. I'm sure I've used resupply ships before without this problem; I'm not sure what's different about this case.

Your processor will be fine. You might have trouble running the biggest galaxy sizes due to your RAM, but other than that you'll be fine with the game from what I've seen of it.
