@arvcran2 Since I've posted that suggestion, almost to 2 years ago, I've given some more thoughts to this. And I've come up with what I think is a much better idea to improve troop management. I need to put my thoughts together before posting the suggestion (it involves many things). But the jist o...

Some interesting ideas already ... here are some more: Troop Unit Type loadout paradigm: Am thinking Invasion Army Templates aught to use percentages of the available total invasion fleet troop capacity size and display the calculated loadout based on unit roles' maximum sizes of Invasion Fleet Temp...

DWU had playable Pirates ...

Take a yonder to da Pirate dreams of being an empire https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/ ... 2316986789 ... There be a Guide if yur able ta read wurds ... Arrrr!

Thank you! There is no way to manually specify that a specific ship is the Lead Ship, right? Select a ship from the fleet and right click for the menu, if the fleet ship is not already the lead ship you should see a 'set ship as lead ship' choice. Some times you have to zoom in to the ship to get t...

Here is what happens with Generals, based on my observations, when Generals are on Manual Automation : - Generals assigned to fleets will reside on the Lead Fleet Ship - If the Lead Fleet Ship is not a Troop Transport, the General does not participate in any of the ground battles - If the ground bat...

Anyone aware if there are time zone verification of posts time stamps, or is this too hot a subject to even enter into discussion?

... - fixed independent colonies sometimes being automatically invaded (or blockaded, bombarded, etc) despite diplomatic strategy of 'Diplomacy leading to peaceful Colonization'. ... Not really fixed. As I wrote so many times we need a policy setting for this. Your fix only works if you stay all th...

As said its simple. I want ships not in fleet for special reasons (guarding, hunting solo merchants in war etc). in lategame i often build 200 or 300 Destroyers or Cruisers at once for this reason. as for now you can have them only manual or full automation on start..if you go full auto they do stu...

Hi all, got the DLC, played a game and had Boskara as immediate neighbors. They got freakin' 36% to over 50% growth rate on their planets. Heck I am just bombarding one of their planets and its still growing by 33%. Are these numbers off, or plausible? I am slightly puzzled, and can't remember this...

In my humble opinion: (Which is somewhat Biased since I have participated and contributed many hours with the DW2 Betas from the start) DW2 is consistently improving and the Matrix/Code Force team is constantly upgrading the initial invested customer base's product. I am very impressed with the supp...

Just a quick note that there are basic construction resources constantly being consumed at colonies based on population. For sure Steel is one of them. So even if your empire is not building or retrofitting anything there will be consumption.

Larger Construction ships could also be made to have more resource capacity and hence be able to build the larger stations, this could be another method of regulating an empire's advancement. There are fewer stations/orbital-ships' roles that can be built by Construction ships than in Distant Worlds...

This format would be an excellent candidate for a Youtube playthrough!

So the context is the design feedback able to show lack of sustainability for potential peak demand?

What is the context of the original post, please? A picture if that is what the context is about would be appreciated.

Ok ...

I was looking for the other definitions of occupation, sadly ... alas; as in occupation to keeps one's self busy and out of trouble whilst also being productive to the society.

Are these stratagem cards documented in the Encyclopedia?

The Colonize function appears to have a hint of Disbanding but there is no apparent hook to activate it. You can only disband recruits in your SHQ's zone, so if you're looking at Colonize for some other zone, the option doesn't appear. (It should say the reason pretty clearly though, at least by Sh...

Close down any assets you do not need, so what little workers can be hired go to the Rad Protection. Possibly set them all the way to mothball, to squeze even the maintenance workers out while you work on that priority project. Starting 4 projects in a new conquered city was definitely not a good i...

All of my zones are not explicitly recruiting or incentivizing any; however my (troop) recruitment population is growing due to zone feat assets. Seeing as they have to be fed and cared for by QOL, is there any way to make current use of them in either the work force or private sector while also ena...
