Re: Auto Refit

If the designs are set to automatically retrofit I expect they will or should..... eventually .... ie not immediately or when you think they should I have never set combat designs to auto-refit so I cannot be sure this is the case.... I have mistakenly left other designs (eg mines) on auto and only ...

Re: Troop Transport

For every 4 modules each research increment lets me load one extra troop So it makes sense - to me at least - to think of it in that way spread over over multiple modules Presumably your construction tech is also increasing so you can also add more modules which also amplifies the carrying capacity ...

Re: Create mutual defense pact

Sorry for delayed reply - I didn't get a notification
In my games I found that diplomats can make a big difference. With a decent diplomacy bonus they can lift your rep with an empire quite a bit; often enough to get them to agree to what you want.

RE: Distant World: Universe Version not launching Feb 2022

I dont use W10 but I know there are many players who do....so there are solutions
You may need Windows Media Player & DX9
Use google..... also do a search on the Steam forum.... I know there are threads that contain W10 solutions
Hope you will be able to figure it out

RE: Preorder now available !

I never pre-order games and I never buy new releases either but this is different
I'm very pleased with the price I paid and impressed with how the game looks in the preview playthroughs

RE: Advantages/ Disadvantages having other alien races on planet?

Each race has certain racial bonuses - which you can check in the Galactopedia
Having them in your empire can give you some level of those bonuses
You can see any bonuses you have listed in the Empire Summary screen

RE: Invade when clear

AFAIK the presence of defending troops is not what is being referred to. You troops will land and fight any defenders
I think what it means is the troop ships will wait until any space defenses are cleared and they can safely land their troops
