It sounds like the game may have some trouble with the German locale settings when it comes to fleet formation files. Can you please try changing the regional settings of your OS to English and see if that corrects these problems? Also, please post the contents of your debug.err file. This file can be found in c:\program files\stardock\totalgaming\galciv2. Thank you.

would clicking the windows key still do the same thing? because I don't have any issues with fullscreen mode and the mouse.

Jourdelune, Please change your regional settings in Windows to English before starting the game. That should fix the problem. There is a problem in the way commas and periods are interpreted when using non-English settings.

I checked the code for this screen and the related code for the most powerful ship. It is not the case that the value was not cleared. The strongest ship only gets set if the civ actually has possession of that ship, so DreadArchon's theory is most likely correct. Although it wasn't very nice of them to not share it with you

Please uninstall and reinstall the game. Then try restarting the computer after installing before starting the game. On some computers, the fonts do not get loaded if you directly start the game after installing without restarting the computer first. If that does not help, please locate the debug.err file in c:\program files\stardock\totalgaming\galciv2. Open it in notepad and copy the contents of the file. Then paste the files into your post here. Thank you.

Starlost, Please check the Options screen/Interface tab. There is an option under "Ship Designer" labeled "Rotate Parts" You can change this to choose the size of the angle increments you would like to use, or set to "Freely" to allow you to choose any angle you want. Chrsikrusz is correct in that you can use the mouse wheels to set the dials too. However, the mouse wheel will move the dial in the increments set on the option screen, so if you want fu

If you save and reload the game, does this occur? If so, please send us your save game ( gc2bugs@stardock.com ) If it doesn't, please post the contents of your debug.err file. It may provide a clue as to why this is happening. This file can be found in C:\Program Files\Stardock\TotalGaming\GalCiv2. Does it seem to only happen when upgrading a starbase, or does it also happen after starbases are attacked, or uncovered from fog? Did you put those 8 modules on all at once, or individual

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I've looked into this and fixed the problem for the next update. If you haven't met the civ, clicking on the icon will simply dismiss it. If you have met the civ: Left-clicking the icon will talk to the civ who declared war or initiated the peace treaty Right-clicking the icon will move the camera to the homeworld of the civ who declared war or initiated the peace treaty
