[1.7] Bulk update Starbase Support Constructor Models?

from GalCiv3 Forums

Hi all,

After finishing Battlefleet Gothic, I finally got around to playing 1.7.  Overall, it has some nice QoL improvements, but is there a way to bulk update all Starbases to use a new model of Constructor?

The "Set as default constructor" option only affects new starbases, not existing ones.

I also tried obsoleting all other constructor models except my custom constructor, but all the Starbases then decided to use a hidden/secret model named something like "Basic Constructor 3".

Thanks!

On the starbase menu near the top center you can choose which model constructor to use. Have to do it at all bases I think though.

IIRC  Paul said he wants to add a user constructor for all S bases option

Not just starbases but it would be nice to set planetary options this way. This wouldn't negate the need for individual settings we need them both. This would be a big help in reducing micro management in a good way without losing gameplayability.

Thanks all.  Looks like the answer is "not yet, but maybe someday." *crosses-fingers* for another QoL patch.

Yes please add this as well so I don't have to individually select each planet and tell them to not auto-upgrade. What ever that can be done to lessen mouse movements will improve our AI and make the game less tedious over the long haul.
